We will have to start searching again for a software solution that will submit information properly to Authorize.net. MachForm only submits partial information which is an astounding inconvenience when handling dozens of daily transactions.</p> <p>MachForm has the potential to be a really fantastic solution but it isn't designed to make use of the form fields already established in the Authorize.net DPM form. Thank you for an excellent temporary solution that we had running in less than 15 minutes. It is truly sad we cannot continue to use MachForm.</p> <p>Why can't MachForm make those fields available at the time of data entry and then submit them properly to Authorize.net?<br /> Why can't MachForm pass critical data to Authorize.net like the customer entered invoice number, customer ID and name on the shipping address?</p> <p><a href="http://www.appnitro.com/forums/topic/authorizenet-payment-information-page" rel="nofollow">http://www.appnitro.com/forums/topic/authorizenet-payment-information-page</a> </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/authorizenet-invoice-number#post-21285 Fri, 20 Jun 2014 21:52:47 +0000 AustinWeb 21285@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>You are FANTASTIC! </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/authorizenet-invoice-number#post-21275 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 14:41:19 +0000 yuniar 21275@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>You'll need to get the value of {element_1} first for that.
