scoobie Posted March 22, 2006 Posted March 22, 2006 Hi All, I am currently setting up a site which sells imported furniture. We need to be able to take a desposit (say 25 or 30%) when the customer makes the order via whichever payment method is used. We will then collect the rest of the payment a week before the furniture is to be delivered. Would it be possible to mod this contrb to do this? http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,1777 any other (sensible!) suggestions would be most welcome Cheers, Adam. Quote
scoobie Posted March 22, 2006 Author Posted March 22, 2006 Actually... bit of an idea.. we will only want to take a deposit on any items if they arent in stock. If they are in stock we will take full payment. Dont know if that sparks of any bright ideas in any of you geniuses :-) I looked at attributes and doing it that way, but couldnt quite work it out...any clues/hints/tips greatly appreciated!

Guest Posted March 22, 2006 Posted March 22, 2006 that contribution only changes the checkout_process.php. That comes way too late the payment through the gateway is already done. You need something to manipulate the $order global before it goes through the gateway, so maybe a discount related contribution could help more. Because you will charge the customer only the deposit in that case. You will have to adjust the discount and record the remaining value of each order in someway. Quote

I'm willing to pay someone if they can come up with the goods! *pretty please!* Adam that contribution only changes the checkout_process.php.
