Description brought through on the paypal feed

I seem to get an empty “Item” column, the customers name and paypal transaction in the" Description" column, the amount total in the “unit cost” and then “Quantity” 1 from the auto payapl feed.

Is this normal or is there a way to bring through the contents of the cart and amounts itemised correctly?

Would just help me to know what the invoice was referring to is all.

Many thanks in advance

Keith

Item name relates to the item saved in the inventory area on QF. It’s normal that on the PayPal feed this would be blank as the feed doesn’t know about what inventory items you have setup here.

Ah okay, is there anyway to bring the cart contents and amounts over from the paypal invoice then Glenn?

We can only return what comes back in the PayPal API, this is usually the client name, email, shipping address along with the payment total and fees. There’s a more comprehensive list on the PayPal transaction search spec here:

That’s a shame isn’t it, Okay Glenn, thanks for your time again.

Keep up the good work
