Magento Capture with Authorize.net

Question

I am using the Magento 1.7.0.2 and am told by Authorize.net that Magento does not include the original authorization transaction ID in the capture calls. The captures are going through but I am left with pre-auth calls that eventually drop off, rather than capturing funds on the original pre-auth transaction.

Is there any way to have Magento do a capture and send in the original transaction ID? The data is there in Magento since you can see the parent transaction ID but where do I go to add this into the capture call so Auth.net can be happy?

Thanks in advance.

an earlier version has it in app/code/core/Mage/Sales/Model/Order/Payment.php on approximately line ~1325 in the function _generateTransactionId which should be called during capture while doing the invoicing.

just fyi, if you have a transaction id equal to 0 this means you have your authorizenet payment method settings set to test mode: yes, just turn it off and you should be fine assuming it is a test account. You don't need test mode on a test account. If this is not the issue then I am not certain what the issue is as Magento should do this on it's own.

the following stack trace is a result of when the transaction id is zero when capturing a pre authorized transaction...

#0 .../app/code/local/Mage/Paygate/Model/Authorizenet.php(535): Mage->throwException('Gateway error: The ccnumber field is required REFID:...')
