Displaying a Payment Method in the admin but not on the front end

super tonio Total Posts: 54 Joined: 2008-04-10 Ignore user	Hello, I’m trying to include Check/Money Order payment method in the admin (when you Create a New Order or Edit an order) but not display it as an option for customers on the frontend. The reason being we have a credit card processor and when we try to edit an order it loses the credit card info, which of course is required to Edit or Create an order in the admin. Instead of contacting the customer we’d like to just choose Check/Money Order to create the new product and deal with card processing via the processor admin. If anybody has any tips that would be great! Thank you, .st

If you are looking to create a new payment method, in the admin panel under configuration, click on payment methods, and then edit the name of the paymetn method you wish (or choose money orders/checks) Signature iiNTENSE MEDIA iiNTENSEMedia.com - SEO Marketing Tips - Backlink Building - Viral Marketing - Audio/Video Marketing

super tonio Total Posts: 54 Joined: 2008-04-10 Ignore user	Thanks for the reply. In the admin when you Create a New Order or Edit an order it has the payment methods you have enabled on the front end. Because we’re not storing credit card info we can’t create or edit an order because we don’t have the credit info to fill in… therefore we’d like to enable Check/Money Order as a payment method in these admin areas so we can edit/create an order, however NOT show it to a front end customer. Does that make sense? Kinda confusing. If there was an option for not requiring payment info when you create/edit an order in the admin, that would be ideal. This is just a workaround. Thanks again for the help.

My problem is that i get the following error when trying to save the order: “Selected currency code () is not compatabile with PayPal” I’m using Magento 1.2.0.3 and I have no problems with PayPal Standard. Any one else get this error when trying to edit an order?

szotyi Total Posts: 153 Joined: 2008-11-29 Ignore user	do you mean, in the admin? there is no connection between the app/design/frontend/yourlocal/yourtemplate/template/checkout/onepage/payment/methods.phtml and the admin area. So the problem is somewhere else… maybe in the settings

carrie.sucharski Total Posts: 2 Joined: 2009-04-24 Ignore user	I am using Authorize.net as my payment method. My client needs to edit every order coming in because they manually calculate shipping for each order. Will this script work for orders using Authorize.net? When I press “Edit” on an order, will it keep the CC info from the order? Is that what this script is doing?

I noticed however that whilst the check/money order option is missing through normal checkout is appears in checkout with multiple addresses. Is it possible to omit the ch/mo from there as well? Cheers
