Overview

• OMS is only able to record the payment information available at the time an order is exported from the shopping cart an e-commerce software system that allows a retailer to sell products on the Web. In the context of Monsoon OMS, it refers to the settings that describe a merchant's web store to the program, allowing it communicate with the online shopping cart and import orders and other information and imported into its tables.
• Therefore, orders paid through the Google Checkout service are treated in the same manner as the traditional PayPal system (Express Checkout) and a payment method for this payment type must be defined in OMS .
• The reason for this is that the Google Checkout system is not a synchronous system (transactions processed in real-time), so OMS does not know if the transaction was completed successfully.

Using Google Checkout as a Payment Method in OMS

1. Determine the label used by the shopping cart to identify the payment information as coming from Google Checkout by viewing the order XML a mark-up language similar to HTML, except that it is used to structure data, not display it. XML is used to order data in such a way that it can be passed between applications with relative ease. or by contacting the vendor.

2. Create a payment method in OMS using the label identified in the previous step as the name of the payment method. Refer to the Knowledge Base article, Add a Payment Method for more information.

3. For orders paid by this method to appear as "Paid in Full" once they are imported into OMS , set system parameter GoogleCheckoutOrdersArePaidInFull equal to TRUE.
