Importing Sales Orders with P/N Ref Identifiers
You can import a sales order with P/N Ref identifiers that represent the authorizations. You do not need to use tokens or payment card numbers in the import process.
In the import script that creates the sales orders, set the following:
-
the External Checkout payment method
-
the Record External Event handling mode
-
the received authorization code in the P/N Ref value
However, this workflow does not work with the PayFlow Pro Payment Processing Plug-in integration. Payment Processing Profiles based on the PayFlow Pro plug-in integration require a payment card number and expiration date to process a transaction.
NetSuite creates a sales order with a recorded payment event. When the sales order is billed, the payment event can be captured in NetSuite. The cash sale operation sends a capture request for the originally imported authorization to the payment gateway.
