eCart 5 - success page authorization

hi there

In eCart 4 the checkout success page used to automatically update the database with an order status : StatusDetail.. and a Vendor TX Code

... however in eCart 5 this doesn't seem to be the case.

I've set up an Update Record behaviour to try and do this, and added a status field to my orders table, but in the behaviour I just need to know what ID I should set... eCart gives me a session ID and an ID but these don't relate to the order ID stored on the database...

thanks

The order ID should be stored in a session after you make the first insert to the the database in the confirm page and usually that session is named 'OrderID'.

In regard to eCart v4, i don't believe eCart v4 updated the order status on the success page, but i will do a quick test to confirm.

hi Dani

Thanks for your help. I'm just tying to update the order with a status once checkout_success has been reached.

In my update record behaviour I have set the Key Column 'OrderID' to equal <?php echo $_SESSION['OrderID']; ?>

... but this doesn't update the record...

here's my full update code:

<?php
// WA Application Builder Update
if ("" == "") // Trigger
{
$WA_connection = $hellolittleone;
$WA_table = "orders";
$WA_redirectURL = "";
$WA_keepQueryString = false;
$WA_indexField = "OrderID";
$WA_fieldNamesStr = "StatusDetail";
$WA_fieldValuesStr = "Authorised";
$WA_columnTypesStr = "',none,''";
$WA_comparisonStr = "=";
$WA_fieldNames = explode("|", $WA_fieldNamesStr);
$WA_fieldValues = explode("|", $WA_fieldValuesStr);
$WA_columns = explode("|", $WA_columnTypesStr);

$WA_where_fieldValuesStr = "".$_SESSION['OrderID'] ."";
$WA_where_columnTypesStr = "none,none,NULL";
$WA_where_comparisonStr = "=";
$WA_where_fieldNames = explode("|", $WA_indexField);
$WA_where_fieldValues = explode("|", $WA_where_fieldValuesStr);
$WA_where_columns = explode("|", $WA_where_columnTypesStr);
$WA_where_comparisons = explode("|", $WA_where_comparisonStr);

$WA_connectionDB = $database_hellolittleone;
mysql_select_db($WA_connectionDB, $WA_connection);
if (!session_id()) session_start();
$updateParamsObj = WA_AB_generateInsertParams($WA_fieldNames, $WA_columns, $WA_fieldValues, -1);
$WhereObj = WA_AB_generateWhereClause($WA_where_fieldNames, $WA_where_columns, $WA_where_fieldValues, $WA_where_comparisons );
$WA_Sql = "UPDATE `" . $WA_table . "` SET " . $updateParamsObj->WA_setValues . " WHERE " . $WhereObj->sqlWhereClause . "";
$MM_editCmd = mysql_query($WA_Sql, $WA_connection) or die(mysql_error());
if ($WA_redirectURL != "") {
if ($WA_keepQueryString && $WA_redirectURL != "" && isset($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"]) && $_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"] !== "" && sizeof($_POST) > 0) {
$WA_redirectURL .= ((strpos($WA_redirectURL, '?') === false)?"?":"&").$_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"];
}
header("Location: ".$WA_redirectURL);
}
}
?>

We need to confirm that the order is session is named OrderID. On the top of success page, please includes these lines of code:

<?php
session_start();
echo $_SESSION['OrderID'];
var_dump($_SESSION);
?>

Please post back with the output you get on the success page with those lines included.

if you can just copy the output to a text file and attache it to your reply.

hi Dani

Here you go:

array(34) { ["price"]=> string(6) "105.00" ["desc"]=> string(9) "68 cards " ["special"]=> string(0) "" ["productpic"]=> string(19) "Ark_blue_BTY_NP.jpg" ["priceqty"]=> string(16) "105.00:68 cards " ["newimage"]=> string(0) "" ["newimage2"]=> string(0) "" ["introduction"]=> string(6) "asdasd" ["eCart1_Items"]=> string(257) "0|WAECART|Baby Thank You Cards - Ark Blue|WAECART|Description: 68 cards

eCart1_OrderID works !

hi Dani

Thanks for your help so far. This works great

Could also give advice on how to include the SagePay order reference number on the confirmation email and also save to the database ?

thanks

Are you using VSP Server or VSP Form. Most likely the transaction ID is returned and stored in a session. You can try outputting the session on your success page to see if the transaction key is listed.

hi Dani

I'm using VSP Form - yes I did a session output before - see a couple of posts back...

Sorry it looks like the values are stored in a query string. To get the value, open the success page and open the bindings panel, and click the + button. choose eCart -> Checkout -> Check out from response and choose and select sage pay vsp form. if you expand the check out from response in the binding panels, you can then see all the values that are returned. You can then update your update server behavior to store the values you want to store from the response.
