For those of you selling children's classes on the Web:
If the constituent is buying more than one class are you creating separate line items?
Are you creating the constituent records for the children via the Web API?
Are associating each line item to the constituent record you created by passing the constituent id to the "for" using the special request.
Hi Robert,
We sell children's classes here at the Science Museum through the WebAPI.
1. Yes, each individual class gets its own line item. If the same class is being ordered for more than one child, each child needs a separate line item. The "pur" number is never more than 1 on any one line item.
2. Yes, the WebAPI creates a record for each child and associates it to the parents' record. Any records already created and associated (from past transactions, converted data, etc.) are also displayed online so as to avoid duplicates.
3. Yes, the WebAPI associates each line item with the child's record using the "for" field in the special request.
Good luck!
