    That is normal with PayPal IPN transactions.
    If you want detailed PayPal receipts, use Express Checkout.

    If your PayPal IPN orders are not showing in Zen Cart, you have a communication problem from PayPal back to your Zen Cart store: http://www.zen-cart.com/wiki/index.php/PayPal

    Also- be sure to turn on and configure the admin's copy of the payment confirmation.
