Getting Virtual terminal orders into Zen

[Hound]

I'm using Authorize.net on my site and also have access to virtual terminal. I was wondering what the procedure might be to get virtual terminal orders into zen cart.

My rather illogical thinking has me considering enabling a store account and running the VT transactions as an in house type charge. At least that way the orders are included in my Zen reports.

Any thoughts or ideas?

That's about the only way.
There is no feed that can come back from authnet into zen cart, so you'd need to initiate the transaction from your store in order to get it in both places.

As merchants are now starting more and more to process cards with 3DS (3D Secure(MasterCard Secure Code/Verified by Visa)) enabled, can they still do this?

If they take an off-line payment and try to process the order through ZenCart with a credit card, and the card is 3DS enabled, it will pop up with a request for the cardholders password, which obviously the merchant is not privy to.

Is there an easy way to raise the order with ZenCart and have it connect to the Payment Service Provider so that it is processed as an 'off-line' payment?

It sounds to me as if an Admin order module that took mail order/telephone payments would be the best solution that then connected to the PSP so that the details do not need to be entered twice.

Love to know anyone's thoughts or solutions!
