Multiple Payment Types

[ScottA]

Hello,

I was checking out the latest ecommerce in the trunk and I have a question regarding multiple payment types. While it is not implemented in the trunk, is there any support OOTB where someone can place an order then pay for it using lets say a visa, a mastercard and another form of payment? I see that you can use a credit card and a gift card but the scenario I am asking about could be an invoice of $300 with a $100 payment by Visa, a $100 payment by Amex and a $100 payment by Discover where the customer is choosing the amount to pay by each method.

Any help would be appreciated. TIA

if depends on the gateway you  select supports.
if you look at

OOTB
you have a few gateways
paypal
Authorizenet
ClearCommerce
SagePay
and a couple others

Sorry BJ, I'm a little confused. If for example my gateway is auth.net, they would be the gateway for visa/mc/amec/discover but the question is, can ofbiz handle these multiple forms. $100 visa, $100, mc, $100 amex, etc. in a single checkout?

Hi Scott:
I think there may be some restrictions in splitting payments between
more than one online service processing provider(s). I seem to remember
reading something in the code about that. Since you are talking about
just auth.net as your service processing provider, you should be able to
do this. I've never done it so I don't know if it really works
out-of-the-box, but the demo store does support this scenario.

If you want more info on this, please see my book  "Getting Started with
Apache OFBiz, E-Commerce Out-Of-The-Box", revised Chapter 4.4.

Regards,
Ruth

Thanks very much Ruth. I was hoping that would be the case. Much appreciated.

as far as the gateway, yes you can put through multiple payments for an
order that your provider handles.
the gate way has no way of knowing it is one order.
Not an OTTB feature though.
It is possible, though.

ruth:
almost correct. OTTB only one type of payment per order, but many type
of payments to select from.
