XML to populate ARB description field

jasimon9 — Thu, 03 Jan 2019 01:35:10 GMT

Our ARB transactions do not get posted with the Description field that we provide. There is only one place in the documentation that addresses this. It gives the following information;

order Contains optional order information.

invoiceNumber Merchant-assigned invoice number for the subscription.

description Merchant-provided description of the subscription.

For a long time we have included the <order><invoiceNumber>OurInvoiceNumber</invoiceNumber></order> sub-element, and it works fine. However, we also have the element <order><description>Our description</order></description>. However, this field is still not being populated.

What is the proper XML format to populate this field?

Hi there,

Not sure if it was just a typo in your post but the XML would be

<order><description>Our description</description></order>

not

<order><description>Our description</order></description>

Although of course that should generate an XML error not a silent fail. But the <description> element is the correct one for populating a subscription transaction description
