Yes that is what I am doing. I am not using a cart, rather I am
calling a series of simple methods.
First I prep the data and call storeOrder to create the order in
OFBiz. The service also creates an OrderPaymentPreference record of
type EXT_OFFLINE (I am passing this in a map to storeOrder.)
Then I call changeOrderStatus to change the order from created to
approved.
Then I call createPaymentFromPreference which successfully creates a
payment record.
The last service I call is processOrderPayments.
I still need to figure out how to generate the invoice and appy
payments.
Invoices are created based on shipment status changes (picked, or
packed in the release branch).
There is probably an easier way to do this. Right now I have to call
all of these services with require-new-transaction="true" so that
records are committed to the database before the next service is
called.
You may want to have a look at the "quick ship" link in the order
detail page and all the events that are triggered by this.

Subject: Re: importing orders from another system
Hi Vince,
if you create the payment for the order before the invoice, when the
invoice is created the payment should be applied to it.

I am not sure the best way to handle the payment. I was thinking of
creating an OrderPaymentPreference with paymentMethodTypeId =
EXT_OFFLINE. There is a service (createPaymentFromPreference) that
will then create the payment, although it doesn't seem to complete
the proess of actually receiving the payment against the order.
Am I going down the wrong path here?
