Delay credit-card processing


Recommended Posts

Posted

My store sells processed images. The customer logs on, selects some images, and various image processing styles (as attributes/options) and then places an order. The store then has to spend about 1-2 days retreiving and processing data before it can be sure that the order (processed images made available via oscommerce's download functionality) is fully available.

 

So the steps are:

1. Customer places order

2. Store retreives and processes data

3. Store is notified that all files are ready, along with the whereabouts of these files

4. Credit-card transaction is processed (1-2 days after the initial order placement)

5. Customer is notified via email that the data is ready to download

 

The catch is that I can't figure out how to process the credit-card transaction AFTER the 1-2 day processing.

 

By default, OsCommerce is setup to process the transation immediately after step 1.

 

How can I change OsCommerce to AUTOMATICALLY process the credit-card at 4/5 as above?
