Gathering billing address for pay later users
January 17, 2011, 09:05:31 am
I'm attempting to setup a contribution page using PayPal Pro as the payment processor for users joining a membership scheme. Our client has a number of members representing large organisations who will pay later and will require invoicing for this. However, we're finding that the billing details conflict for users paying via PayPal. Is there a way of asking for the billing address if they choose "Pay later" via a profile, and only using the PayPal Pro fields if they pay online?

Any hints/suggestions would be welcome.

You can potentially use the buildForm hook to make the billing fields required irrespective if the user chooses to pay now or later. I'm not sure if it will work, but give it a shot :)

alternatively, you can add a profile for the billing fields and use javascript to show it only if pay later is enabled

Unfortunately our client will not accept bespoke development of CiviCRM and would interpret this as just that. I think we are just going to have to deal with what we have. It is certainly not ideal and not the approach I would personally take.

Thanks for your response anyway.
