PaymentHoldReasonCodeType ( token )

Enumerated type that contains all possible reasons why the buyer's payment for the order is being held by eBay instead of being distributed to the seller's account. A seller's funds for an order can be held by eBay for as little as three days after the buyer receives the order, but the hold can be up to 21 days based on the scenario, and in some cases, the seller's lack of action in helping to expedite the release of funds.
