Payment Method shenanigans

Having a strange hiccup occur with some new payment methods we've introduced to reflect a change in business rules.

We've moved to an Invoice payment method to allow the Box Office to print consignment tickets prior to payment, and then are paying off the invoice once the check is received. That's all working as expected.

With one of our consignment vendors, however, we need to use two payment methods to track expenses and have devised a way to deal with that which involved creating a new payment method. We did that, and enabled it for the User Groups in the Security Module who would be using this payment method. However, the new Payment Method isn't appearing for anyone in any of the User Groups to which the new Method has been assigned.

I've verified the Method's setup in Campaigns > Appeals, verified the permissions in the Groups setup within the Security Module and searched for a relevant utility in Management Studio, just in case I forgot something (I didn't find anything in there that looked like it would help, like up_update_payment_methods or the like).

Any ideas what I'm missing, or have I veered into TASK Help Ticket Land?

Thanks for your thoughts.

  • Control Groups don’t affect the dropdown in the Payment window, only in history windows (like the Order History and Transactions tab) and Report Parameters.

     

    Also, check if Security assignment has Refund checked and max refund set as needed.  Have you logged out and logged back in?

    Maybe a control group gone awry?

  • In the Assign module in Security, I select the Payment Method radio button and double-click on the offending Methods, correct?

    We have a check box labelled "Income", not "Refund", and a "Max Refund Field". For the two user groups in question, the box is unchecked, and the Max field is set to 999,999,999.

    Also, we established this procedure and did the setup several weeks ago (but haven't needed it until today), so we've logged in & out a few times since then.
