Question on order entry and cc auth

[Jacopo Cappellato]

Hi all,

and sorry for the silly question... but I don't know how I could test
this: if during order entry (not ecommerce) I select a cc as payment
option and the cc authorization fails, is the order created anyway?

Thanks,

Jacopo

The easiest way to test this is to configure the ProductStore to use  
the always fail authorize service (in services_paymentmethod.xml),  
and there are other services there for testing other things.

In the back-end I'm not sure exactly what it will do. In both  
ecommerce and the order manager I believe it _does_ create the order,  
but in a rejected status. It will also keep track of the original try  
order's ID in the ShoppingCart and attach that to subsequent tries so  
that they can be tied together.
