Custom Payment Gateway Responses

[dhollingworth]

Hi

 

I'm writing a custom payment gateway to use RealEx's RealAuth interface. The gateway formats and dispatches the transaction request as an XML message and get's an XML response.

 

I can parse that response OK; but what can I do with all the data that RealEx sends back in the response? Can WHMCS only handle "Success" or "Failed" or can I pass it back other information, like the transaction ID for example, for it to store?

 

Another example. RealEx can send back a security score for the transaction. We'd like any orders above a certain score to be flagged as risky. Is there some way of passing back this score into WHMCS?

 

The sample payment gateway module seems to indicate you can return an array including the raw data; but I can't find anyway of processing that raw data within WHMCS.

 

Anyone any suggestions?

 

Thanks
