We are having trouble trying to capture the total sales amount on each
transaction for our Go Toast ROI tracking system. Everything seems to be
working properly except the final piece of code that needs placed in the
footer of the Thank You screen. We can not seem to figure out how to pull
the total sale amount into the Go Toast provided code. Has anyone
implemented this system and if so what code did you use and where did you
place it?

You would need to write a script (in Perl, PHP, C, etc) that uses the
ShopSite Order API to get the variables you need and then output them in
the HTML code above the thankyou screen. Go to Merchandising -> Order
API and click the red '?' in the navbar to see the online documentation
of the variables avaiable via the Order API (note, I know that several
people have written code like this for ShopSite before, one in
particular is Commission Junction, who is probably a competitor of Go
Toast).

My code GURU has tried several times to capture the sale amount and insert
it into the code provided by Go Toast but has not been able to get it to
work. If I understand him correctly it has to do with the way our host has
the server set up. I would like to communicate with a ShopSite user that has
the ROI system from Go Toast working on their site and see exactly how they
did the final part of capturing the sale amount and inserting it into the
code provided. The code they provide is below.

!--BEGIN ROI TRACKING Code--
script language="javascript"
src="http://roi.GoToast.com/ROI/Track.asp?ROIID=***************"></script
script language="javascript"
!--
if (typeof(ROIID) + '' != 'undefined')
{
TrackEvent('Sale', 100);
}
//--
/script
!--END ROI TRACKING Code--

Where it says "100" is what we need to replace with the actual total sale
amount. Unfortunatel we have been unable to figure out how to drop teh sale
amount into that spot. My code guy has tried using the order API function
for this but could not get it to work. This code is to be placed somewhere
on the last page they see after the sale has completed. This would be the
Thank You page. Still looking for an answer to this one............
