No Transaction ID field offered when completing payment for event (backend)
October 07, 2008, 05:27:49 pm
Hi There,

I think this might be a bug, or perhaps I've misunderstood the purpose of the 'Transaction ID' field.  Here's the problem in brief...

Using CiviCRM 2.1.0 stable with Joomla 1.5.7...

  • I register a contact for an event using the 'Event Tab' under the contact's record. I enter the 'Participant Status' as 'pending' and leave the 'Record Payment' option unchecked. the URL I'm using to register the contact for the event is: http://joomla.demo.civicrm.org/administrator/index2.php?option=com_civicrm&task=civicrm/contact/view/participant&reset=1&action=add&cid=105&context=participant
  • Later I come back and edit the event registration (under the contact's 'Event Tab') so that I can 'Record Payment'.  I check the 'Record Payment Option, but when I do this there is nowhere to enter the Transaction ID.

This happens on the demo site as well (as you probably guessed from the URLs above).

I'm assuming this is a bug - or have I misunderstood the purpose of the Transaction ID field? If it is a bug, I'm happy to post this on the Issue Tracker.

Cheers,

David

p.s. I posted here because assumed this was most relevant to CiviContribute, rather than CiviEvent (since it's about payment only). Apologies if this isn't the best place to post this.

This is a bug. The expected behavior is to not allow edit of this field when the payment happens thru a payment processor (because in that case the Transaction ID is auto-filled). However, you should be able to enter it in the flow that you've described. Please file an issue with the details.

Fix should be part of next tarball release, if urgent you can get it from http://fisheye.civicrm.org/changelog/CiviCRM-2-1/?cs=17444
