Advanced orders Defining a payment configuration for event-driven payments

Before a store can take advantage of event-driven payments processing, it must have an association with one or more payment configuration IDs. A payment configuration ID is an identifier that is associated with a specific payment method. For example, if your store will accept checks, cash on delivery, and two brands of credit cards, four payment configuration IDs are required. (In this case, four are required but you could define additional payment configuration IDs if desired.) For more information about these IDs, see the topic Payment configuration IDs.

Different stores can use the same payment configuration IDs. For example, if two stores use identical payment method configurations, they can both be associated with the same configuration IDs. The payment rule used by the payment methods will be same for both stores if the same configuration ID is used.

Payment configuration IDs are already provided in WebSphere Commerce for supported payment methods. You can select one or more of these configurations for use. You can also change them, delete them, or add new ones. Regardless of which configurations you choose, you must ensure that the payment configurations are associated with the store.

The following topics describe how to perform tasks related to defining payment configurations for use in an advanced orders processing environment:
