Quick Paypal Issue-Are Items on Paypal Notice?

Hi,

Please excuse my brain cramp, however my partner and I are at odds with a v1.27d issue.

Is the receipt the store owner receives from Paypal suppose to contain an itemized list of what the customer ordered, or do you reply on the store copy of the order that is sent after the order is placed?

Unfortunately I don't have any examples to look at to see which the issue is.

If they are supposed to show up on the Paypal receipt they aren't which is why I'm asking.

Thank You,

Betty

Zen Cart does not pass an itemized list to PayPal. The Zen Cart Order Confirmation the customer recieves does have all of the details.

Please do not PM for support issues: a private solution doesn't benefit the community.

Be careful with unsolicited advice via email or PM - Make sure the person you are talking to is a reliable source.

Sorry to bump this one, however I have an add-on question.

Does that mean that it cannot be changed/modified (in v1.27d) to pass an itemized list as described in the Paypal IPN manual?

A portion of the item passing in the manual is:

The minimum required HTML for your post to PayPal looks similar to the following.

<form action=”https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr” method=”post”> <input type=”hidden” name=”cmd” value=”_cart”> <input type=”hidden” name=”upload” value=”1”> <input type=”hidden” name=”business” value=”[email protected]”> <input type=”hidden” name=”item_name_1” value=”Item Name 1”> <input type=”hidden” name=”amount_1” value=”1.00”> <input type=”hidden” name=”item_name_2” value=”Item Name 2”> <input type=”hidden” name=”amount_2” value=”2.00”> <input type=”submit”” value=”PayPal”> </form>

Thank you and apologies for the late follow-up,
