peterp Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Hi All, I have a customer who uses the 'Print Order Form' as a payment gateway and all seems OK except when they check the status of the order in the transaction logs it remains set to 'Pending' even though the order has gone through the 'Processing' and 'Completed' actions. This I think causes an extra order confirmation email to be sent to admin, I could see where this would be correct as a reminder to admin that and order has not been fulfilled, however theses orders have been fulfilled and they thought 'Completed'What can be done about this for the 'Print Order Form' payment gateway, they also use Pay-Pal as a payment gateway and this one works perfectly.Any help with this issue would be very much appreciated please.Best Regards,Peterp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsmither Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 I think this is normal behavior. There is code in the payment gateways that will log actions into the transaction log initiated by that gateway -- sending an order to Pending, Processing, Payment Received, etc. The POF is not designed to log things such as this.And neither are administrative actions designed to log entries into the transaction log. But they do show on the order's History tab.(You mention PayPal, but when the admin moves a 'PayPal' order to complete, does this administrative action actually get logged in the transaction log? It seems to me it wouldn't.)So, we can either edit the code to log administrative actions regarding changing the order status into in the transaction log, or convince the store owner to give more weight to the History tab of the respective order.

All the orders that where paid using Pay-Pal show up in the transaction log correctly as being completed whereas the POF orders still show pendingThe correct steps are being performed by my client with regards to order completion, however the status for these orders in the transaction log is still showing pending and I think this is why he receives a reminder email, do you think this is what is causing the reminder email and if so can we change some code to fix it.My client is using the history tab and it is showing all the right statuses, but the repeat email is causing problems with same orders being filled again.I hope this explains what is happening and I look forward to your thoughtsThe client is using ver 6.0.7Best Regards,Peterp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsmither Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 I'll be happy to study the issue, but I am still reluctant to believe that the PayPal module logs to the Transaction Log an Order status as Complete.I would like to know what edits were made to that store such that the admin gets an email of Pending orders.Please send me a PM with your email address.
