Hi, As part of a Rental solution I am currently building in Satchmo (see http://groups.google.com/group/satchmo-users/browse_thread/thread/8d86556c1724daf3/51de78a1c3b41c4d?hl=en&lnk=gst&q=rental#51de78a1c3b41c4d for discussion) I need to support the following with regards to payment processing;
1) Refund Transaction - using a transaction id provided by the gateway in the original transaction 2) Pre-authorise - the ability to pre-authorise a certain amount (essentially insurance) and if the rental product is brought back in the same condition that it went out, then the pre-auth is voided, otherwise its completed. So here are my questions: 1) Has there been any work regarding processing refunds? If so, can someone point me in that direction? 2) I believe that pre-auth as a function is covered using the 'Capture Payment immediately' however the business process for rental is quite different. There needs to be two transactions, one for the rental costs (which is immediate) and another for the insurance (which is just a pre-auth). How would I go about implementing this functionality? I imagine that a few simple views with a custom checkout process could do it, however ideally this is something I would like to contribute back to the Satchmo community so what would be the preferred approach? 3) The pre-auth needs to be voided or completed upon return or non return of the item, I imagine the answer to this will tie closely in with the outcome of question 2 above? Thanks Alex p.s. For those that might be searching here are some alternate spellings: pre-authorize, preauthorize, preauthorise :) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Satchmo users" group.
