Authorize.net & invoice numbers??

[jasonabc]

Hi guys,

 

Am getting complaints from an OSC client of mine that the "invoice number" column in their Authorize.net Control Panel is blank. Authorize.net say the problem is on the store end. I just have the stock Authorize.net module installed.

 

Has anyone come across this before or know a solution??

 

thanks very much

This reply is pretty late but if you are using the AIM (ADC) version, you can use this contribution...

or, if you're using the default osc authorize.net module, use this fix...

I found this easy and useful, thanks!

 

Do you know how to add the description field for Authorize.NET? I would like to add the site name from the configuration file for the description on my orders. The reason - I have three sites going to the same Authorize.NET account. I changed the starting invoice numbers to qualify the site, but I would like to make it more apparent which site the order originated. Thanks-

you could send it along in much the same way as A.net passes all the other info. The store name is in the TITLE variable - so just use that. You may have to create the description parameter that A.net is expecting - it's not a required field so isn't passed along to them.

Do you know the Authorize.NET parameter for Description? Following the example, would this be correct?

 

// ADD A HIDDEN FIELD AND PASS IN THE NEW NUMBER:

tep_draw_hidden_field('x_Invoice_Num', $next_inv) .

 

// ADD A HIDDEN FIELD AND PASS IN THE NEW DESCRIPTION:

tep_draw_hidden_field('x_Description', SITE_NAME) .

 

SITE_NAME is pulled from the english.php file, I may have defined it can't remember if it was included in the original setup. I added several values to this file like META values and such...

 

This site is already live so I hope to get the code right the first time, can't do much testing or downtime...thank you-

Check A.net's Developer site - I believe all of the possible responses a store can send them (required and not required) are listed there.
