Ethoca representment turnaround on the alert desk
Pull one Ethoca alert-desk fight export. Measure issuer close stamp against packet-filed stamp. The day gap is EC lag days. Win or loss does not move the clock stop.
Calculator: Representment lag days on Chargebacks. Desk twin: Chargeblast lag. Dollar twin: alert-to-fight lag.
Fight stamps
Packet-filed stamp — Calendar day the Ethoca representment packet left the alert desk.
Issuer close stamp — Calendar day the issuer / network closed that Ethoca fight.
EC lag days = issuer close stamp − packet-filed stamp. Rising EC lag days means the packet or issuer queue on that Ethoca seat is slow — chase that path; leave blank chips alone.
Guardrails
Do not invent EC lag days. Do not load alert-to-fight at-risk $ into filed/closed boxes. Do not paste a Chargeblast CE desk CSV into Ethoca fields. Do not blend desks when one Ethoca MID owns the open fights.
