Square Payment Module for Zen Cart [Support Thread]

[DaxtheMan]

Hi
Using ZC 1.5.8a and OPC with PHP8.2 and Square module 2.0.2. Basic responsive_classic template.

Not sure where the issue I have originates - maybe the group pricing code or maybe something being picked up in the Square module. I'm sure those with a far greater knowledge of how these things integrate can advise. Here's the issue:

1/When the cart user qualifies for a group pricing discount (or when a discount code is used) the cart total is showing the correct net figure that will be charged to their card.
2/When the cart sends off the amount to the bank for verification the bank pop-up asks for approval for the pre-discount amount - not the amount shown in the cart.
3/When the cart verification is declined the resulting log shows the correct discounted amount in the audit trail!
4/If the user accepts the larger amount at the verification stage the transaction goes through at the discounted amount.

This screenshot shows better what I am trying to detail:


The error log:

  [amountMoney:Square\Models\CreatePaymentRequest:private] => Square\Models\Money Object
        (
            [amount:Square\Models\Money:private] => Array
                (
                    [value] => 41324
                )

            [currency:Square\Models\Money:private] => GBP

I'd appreciate any guidance here on a resolution. Where did the bank get the wrong amount data from in the initial pop-up screen (that isn't used for the transaction)?

Thanks for reading this.

i won’t be in front of my computer until wednesday. at that point i can boot up 1 of my 137 different zc installs and track down what the problem may be.

that said, i think the paypal rest app may have encountered a similar problem. it seems that the order total is not reflective of these discounts at the time of payment.

but i will look at it closer when i’m in front of my computer.

best.

Would it make sense to do a check for Safari before enabling Apple Pay? If you're using Chrome, you get this console error:

square.js:3 Initializing Apple Pay failed PaymentMethodUnsupportedError: Method unsupported: Apple Pay is only available on Safari.

i'll add it to my list, but truly very low priority.

wrong totals getting sent to the payment processor because the $order->info object is incorrect at the time the data should be handled is far greater priority and something that really makes little sense to me.

why is there a checkout payment page if the base ZC can not provide the correct totals?

Thanks carlwhat - I do appreciate the help.

dax,
there are 5 files that i think you need to change.

3 of the files involve commenting out 1 line. the other 2 files require adding 3 lines.

you can review the file changes here:

https://github.com/zencart/zencart/c...art:orderTotal

you need to do everything in green.

considering you are using v158a, the line numbers may be different. but the changes should be the same and in about the same place.

please let me know if you have any questions.

and MOST importantly, let us know if it works and does what you expect!

best.

Thank you for looking at this issue. I have added the 5 amendments and double checked them but the pop-up bank response still includes the same result as before - namely the pre-discount amount is requested to be approved.

dax,
i have looked at this issue. i will have a solution for you soon.

i have started a discussion about this issue here.

IMO, this is a design flaw inherent in ZC with which i will be forced to handle.

thanks for your patience.

Thank you for this information. It is interesting that ZC leaves totalling of the order (in part) to the payment module... I can, I think, now comprehend the scale of the issue!

What is strange to me is that the bank actually processes the discounted amount despite the original request for the customer to approve (via the 3D pop-up screen) being the pre-discount amount. Where does the information for that initial bank response originate? - that is not used subsequently.

Probably over simplifying the issue.

dax,
i think you have done something wrong. or you have some other modifications going on.

i have replicated your issue exactly using the low order fee, which is similar to group pricing, except it is adding and not subtracting the order_total amount.

in the following screencasts (in ogg format) which demonstrates the problem as you have described it, and then enacts my fixes to address it.

as to whether these changes will get merged into the base ZC, we will see.

base zen-cart square webPay SCA with wrong amount in SCA.

fixes zen-cart square webPay SCA with correct amount in SCA.

best.
