Advanced orders SimpleOffline payment plug-in

The SimpleOffline plug-in is a payment plug-in provided in WebSphere Commerce for use with the advanced orders and event-driven payments functions. It enables payments to be processed offline or manually. Offline payments do not involve any direct communication with a payment back-end system. Instead, the SimpleOffline plug-in records events that have already happened outside of WebSphere Commerce. Transactions are recorded and maintained in the WebSphere Commerce database. The Payment Plug-in Controller performs the database operations necessary to record all the payment transactions for this plug-in.

Examples of offline payments are:

In all cases a manual step is required to complete the transaction to receive payment. This manual step of editing the pending payment can be performed through the Payments menu in the WebSphere Commerce Accelerator.

The SimpleOffline plug-in can be used as is or it can be modified to suit your particular payment requirements. It can also be configured to support additional offline payment methods. Plug-in writers can use the plug-in as an example when developing their own plug-ins.
