ARB Subscriptions and refunds

craigdukes78 — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 18:37:33 GMT

I am developing the payment sections of my website at the moment. I am going to be using ARB subscriptions for members. Members can upgrade their accounts at any point during there current membership.

My question is, if a member changes their subscription and there is a refund that needs to be issued, can a refund to issued off their last ARB payment Transaction Id?

If so where would this be done? I looked at the test account interface and I do not see an option to refund off an ARB subscription.

There is no refund functionality built into our system that is specific to ARB payments. However, any individual transaction (generated by ARB or not) can be refunded within 120 days of when it is first run. As long as you are storing the transaction IDs that we send you for each ARB transaction, you can issue a refund either programmatically using AIM or manually through our online interface.

Hi,

Can you let me know how i can get transaction id in ARB response?

I'm getting this type of response from ARB CreateSubscriptionRequest.

AuthorizeNetARB_Response Object
(
    [xml] => SimpleXMLElement Object
        (
            [messages] => SimpleXMLElement Object
                (
                    [resultCode] => Ok
                    [message] => SimpleXMLElement Object
                        (
                            [code] => I00001
                            [text] => Successful.
                        )

                )

            [subscriptionId] => 1809793
        )

    [response] => ï»¿OkI00001Successful.1809793
    [xpath_xml] => SimpleXMLElement Object
        (
            [messages] => SimpleXMLElement Object
                (
                    [resultCode] => Ok
                    [message] => SimpleXMLElement Object
                        (
                            [code] => I00001
                            [text] => Successful.
                        )

                )

            [subscriptionId] => 1809793
        )

)

CreateSubscriptionRequest don't generate transaction, it just create a schedule job to run later.

You would need to either use the

Transaction Details API or silent post to get the transaction that creates from the schedule on the ARB.
