Hi All,

The PayPal IPN has been working very well for us, but there are a couple of minor issues that it would be nice to fix.

1) When there is a 2nd address line in the PayPal payment, it gets placed in Vendio's 1st address line without a space. This requires a manual edit and has the potential to create an undeliverable address if it's not caught. Here's an example:

Joe Smith
1234 Main St
Apt 3
Anywhere, PA 12345


...gets translated after IPN to Vendio into

Joe Smith
1234 Main StApt 3
Anywhere, PA 12345

I don't mind the 2nd address line moved into the 1st address line, but the missing space is troublesome.

2) For Canada addresses the Province is usually lost.

3) It would be nice to have the Customer's note imported.

4) It would be helpful if e-check customer info was imported when initiated. I don't know if this is possible on PayPal's end.

Hi Ferretbee,

Do you have any examples in your account right now where the province was lost for Canadian addresses?

We will check into the address issue. I will also forward your comments to Product Development.

Regards,

Sonya

Hi Sonya,

I'm sorry, I fix them as soon as I find them.

Hi Ferretbee,

No problem. If you can remember the ones where the province goes missing, let us know what the ID numbers are and what the province was. If you get any more examples, let us know, so we can investigate further.

Regards,

Sonya

Hi ferretbee,

Thank you for the examples. We will file a bug on this (I do not know when we will be able to implement a fix, however, as I'm not sure if this glitch is on our side or Paypals.)

Thanks,

Diana
