Introduction

This document describes how to install and use the DataCash payment provider, one of several payment solutions available for EPiServer Commerce.

Real Time Fraud Prevention

The "3rd man real time fraud prevention" is available for a live account only. If you are using a live account and would like to enable the real time fraud checking,follow the instructions in step 4 of the Build project section below.

Build the Project

  1. Download and install the source code files.
  2. Open the EPiServer.Business.Commerce.Payment.DataCash project.
  3. Go to the EPiServer.Business.Commerce.Payment.DataCash\DataCash\Lib folder. Replace the files listed below in the folder, with the corresponding files in the Commerce front-end bin folder:
    - EPiServer.dll
    - EPiServer.BaseLibrary.dll
    - Mediachase.Commerce.dll
    - Mediachase.Commerce.Plugins.Payment.dll
    - Mediachase.Commerce.Website.dll
    - Mediachase.MetaDataPlus.dll
    - Mediachase.WebConsoleLib.dll
  4. If you are using a live account instead of a test account, uncomment the following line in order to activate the "3rd Man real time fraud checking" service:
    Line 221: requestDoc.set("Request.Transaction.TxnDetails.The3rdMan.Realtime.real_time_sha1", HashCode(merchantReference));
  5. Rebuild the project.

Deployment

Do the following to deploy the files needed for enabling the DataCash payment provider:

  1. Copy EPiServer.Business.Commerce.Payment.DataCash.dll to the bin folder of both the Commerce front-end and back-end sites.
  2. Copy EPiServer.dll, EPiServer.BaseLibrary.dll, ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.dll and Transaction.dll in the folder "DataCash\Lib" to the bin folder of both the Commerce front-end and back-end sites. If ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.dll already exists, do not replace.
  3. In the Shared folder (this folder is the "EPiServer Commerce Manager Shared Files Folder" that you selected when you installed Commerce), you should see the folder Plugins by following "Shared\Apps\Order\Payments\Plugins". Create a new folder named DataCash, then copy ConfigurePayment.ascx to this folder.
  4. Create a DataCash folder in "Shared\Apps\Order\Payments\MetaData". Deploy EditTab.ascx to that DataCash folder.
  5. Create a DataCash folder under "Templates\Enoteca\Units\Placeable\plugins\payment" (or under "Templates\Everything\BusinessControls\CheckoutControls\plugins\payment" if you are using an older version than EPiServer Commerce 1.1) of the Commerce front-end site. Copy CountriesCodes.txt, DataCashLandingPage.aspx, PaymentMethod.ascx and the ClientResources folder to the DataCash folder.
  6. Copy the lang folder to the root folder of the Commerce front-end site
