Description and/or SKU from shopping cart - Infusionsoft

Rachael1 — Fri, 22 Nov 2013 05:13:50 GMT

Our shopping cart, Infusionsoft, has an area to enter in a description and a SKU # for products. When an order is placed it is sent to Practice Pay Solutions/Authorize.net. We have several products that are the same price and we need the description to go into the description area in PPS/Authorize.net or the SKU to transfer over - anything that would help us see in PPS/Auth.net what the order is for.

Infusionsoft says: The data is being sent but PPS/Auth.net but it is not categorizing it. I know that in PPS/Auth.net there is a description area. Why is that info being transferred into the system? The invoice # from our shopping cart is accepted and is there. Is there any possible way to get a SKU or description from our shopping cart and get it into a field within PPS/Auth.net?

Thanks, Rachael

Hi,

You may want to check our fields for submitting line item details. This will allow for individual product descriptions and product IDs that could be used to hold the SKU.

Thanks,

Joy

Where do I check the fields? I see description area but Infusionsoft's description does not go into your field "description" - how do I figure that out? Thanks so much for replying.

Not unless you have the access to their source code. They have to tell us exactly what fields name they use to send those information.

Incase there are other ideas or other people looking into this, I contacted a developer and they said it is not possible due to Infusionsoft's application. Here is what he said:

See the issue is that the way Infusionsoft is designed to be a self contained application. There is the possibility to interact with the application via their API, but it appears this can only be done in an passive style. This was confirmed by a developer support rep as not being possible without creating a separate application, although I still can't wrap my head around why they wouldn't include this sort of functionality in a business critical application.

Hello Rachel1,

It appears that Infusionsoft created and controls the functionality in their payment module and they would need to make the necessary changes to support your request. Our business development team has reached out to Infusionsoft to communicate your suggested enhancement.
