There is no method of programatically updating an order status within
ShopSite. There is an option when the orders are viewed in the ShopSite
backoffice to "Bill" an order if the payment was authorized through a
payment gateway, but there is no outside interface to do it. That is
the way most small to medium size merchants would do it. Typically,
larger merchants download their orders and manage them outside of
ShopSite. In ShopSite version 7.0 there is the capability of
downloading orders in an XML format, either from the backoffice or using
a separate merchant supplied application. A utility such as Stone's
Ordermanager or Quickbooks can also be used to manage the orders outside
of ShopSite. I believe most merchants who handle the orders outside of
ShopSite use the interface provided by the payment gateway to finalize
orders that were Authorized through ShopSite when the shopper placed the
order.

Thanks for the reply.
My other question -- do you know of any way to programatically send back
status to Shopsite telling it that an order has shipped and to capture the
funds?
Thanks again.

If you use ShopSite to do the gateway authorization (using Authorize.net,
Verisign, CardService, etc...), then you can pass the status from the
gateway in your order API script using the variable "F-OrderInfo", which
contains the response from the payment gateway.

The thing I'm unsure about is how to send the authorize status and the
AVS
return code such as YYY, etc.
I didn't see an obvious way to do that in the API.
Thanks again.

Yes, an order in ShopSite will only be created if the CC is approved
(by
whatever guidelines you setup for avs, etc.). It will only process the
order API for an approved order.
Anyone at ShopSite, feel free to correct me if I made an error.

through the Order API, INCLUDING the authorization and AVS status?
Thanks again!
