Hello Community,
I'm using the sdk of the braintree in golang for doing payments. I want to authorize the card payment before the actual transaction. Then I have read from some link which tell me that if the status:AUTHORIZED then the transaction will be authorized. Means it will not deduct the balance of the customer but the amount will be authorize. For this I make a sample code and it response me the same the status will be authorize. But on the braintree dashboard -> home page on the bottom there is total amount assume $100 will be displayed. And when I run the sample code it will be increased with the amount I'm passing in the request(passed amount $10. Total balance on the dashboard is $110). What it means? 1. "Transaction success" or 2. "Authorize success". I also check the summary page of the transaction when I reached on the single transaction page then the transaction status is authorized and there is only the button of the "void" payment. I also read that if the transaction is settled(transaction in success) then there is refund button on the top of the single transaction page. But there is only a button of the "void" and I click on that button(status success) then the amount of that transaction($10) will be deducted from the home page total amount(total amount: $110, after deduct void transaction amount: $100).
What it means? why the authorize transaction amount will be added to the braintree dashboard total amount?
Please help me to understand about this flow.

Puneet
