Invoiced checkout in CART

I'm trying to allow clients to pay via check instead of PayPal. Is that the Invoice checkout method? I see no documentation on that option and have played with it to no effect. Is it explaiend anywhere? How does it work? I see no behavior change on checkout when the option is turned on.

Re: Invoiced checkout in CART

I believe it's the same as the old "transactionless" checkout.

OK, I'll see if I can find anything on the "transactionless" method from V4.

Re: Invoiced checkout in CART

Transactionless simply let people check out by filling out name, address, etc. (no PayPal) You then bill them with an invoice

Re: Invoiced checkout in CART

That's what I suspected, but when I turn on the Invoiced Checkout option, the interface shows no change. I see no means for a customer to specify Invoiced as an option at check-out no matter what I try. What am I missing? Do they still have to press the PayPal button to initiate an invoiced transaction? It's certainly not obvious. No "Proceed to Checkout" button appears -- only the PayPal button.

Re: Invoiced checkout in CART

did you reset the cart?
You should see a "Proceed to Checkout" button. See my demo album: http://backlight-rb-test.barbeephoto.co … cart-test/

Re: Invoiced checkout in CART

I reset the cart several times. No "Proceed to Checkout" button ever appears. Has anyone got this to work in Backlight? On the surface, it looks to me like "Invoiced checkout" is not working in Backlight.

Re: Invoiced checkout in CART

Make sure that Backlight and the Cart Module are up to date. I think something like this happened to me during testing, something to do with something coming along on the migration from CE4 or something. Or something.
Anyway, you could try migrating again. But you may need to wait for Ben to weigh in.

Re: Invoiced checkout in CART

Will give it another try. I just re-upgraded to Backlight-Pages-104 and Cart-401 and nothing has changed. The "Proceed to Checkout" button never appears.

Re: Invoiced checkout in CART

Finally got to the bottom of this and, of course, it was my fault. In my custom CSS, I was hiding a button on the search form and it carried over to the Cart form. All better now. Everything is working fine so no follow-up is needed. My screw-up!
