I'm new to authorize and I'm currently trying to implement DPM on my website. I have read that you can add merchant defined data fields just not sure how.
I want to add the users email so a email receipt can be sent to the user and since I required the users email when they register to my site. I was wanting to retrieve that from my database and send it with the payment form. I'm guessing I can just put a hidden field in the form?

Yes, try including a hidden field called x_email and see if that goes through ok.

Just to be totally clear, x_email isn't actually a "merchant defined field". When using DPM, you can include most of the fields defined by the AIM guide as hidden fields. If you follow TJPride's instructions, then the email address will be stored along with the transaction in your Authorize.Net reports.
