What
is on the EROL CD for Datacash
On the EROL CD you will find a DataCash folder containing a Templates subfolder.
The folder
contains the following HTML pages:
- erol_datacash.html
- dc_success.html
- dc_failure.html
The
default DataCash HTML pages
These are all
the HTML pages you will need to successfully set up your EROL order process
with the DataCash transaction system once you have an account with DataCash:
These pages cannot be edited in EROL itself but can be customised to suit the
look and feel of your store using any web editor. Ensure that all hidden fields
already in these pages are not deleted or removed.
- erol_datacash.html
- The default page that will read in the order details from your EROL store
and display them as non-editable fields and add the credit card input fields
to the top of the page.
- dc_success.html - The default page that gets displayed following successful
authorisation of your customer's credit card.
- dc_failure.html - The default page that gets displayed following unsuccessful
authorisation of your customer's credit card.
Customising
the HTML pages
The HTML files can
be edited to allow you to customise the look of your order form.
If you choose to edit these HTML files:
1. Ensure that all hidden fields required for your store are kept intact.
2. Any images used must have relative paths to the HTML document within the same directory. ie. <img src="image.gif">. Do not include paths to any subfolders for any images or other media in your page.
3. Submit your file(s) to support@erol.co.uk who will upload your file(s) to the EROL Secure Server and give you a reference path for your EROL Store.
Setting
up your EROL/Datacash Account
In the Store Settings
window, click on Payment in the menu. This will bring up the Payment tabs. Click
on Gateways tab and several fields will appear. To use DataCash, select DataCash
from the Order Method dropdown. The fields required to enable the connection
to your DataCash account will become active.
The active
fields are:
- Your E-mail: The recipient e-mail address of, typically, the vendor to receive
orders
- Target Script: This will automatically be filled with the correct path to
the DataCash script.
- Merchant ID: This will be given to you by DataCash
- Password: This will be given to you by DataCash
- Secure Form: The name of your Secure Form HTML page containing Credit Card
input fields. Confirm Page: The name of your Order Confirmation HTML page, displayed
after a successful card transaction.
- Reject Page: The name of your Order Failure HTML page, displayed after an
unsuccessful card transaction.
The correct path(s) to these fields will be given to you by EROL Support after
you have sent the files in for upload to your account. If you do not put anything
in these last three fields, they will default to the basic template forms.
Going
Live
Your
store, once set up to work with DataCash, is ready to trade. It is best to test
your store 'behind closed doors' with some test credit card numbers that can
be used to create successful transactions. These numbers are available from
DataCash.
