Membership SuperMod for Discounts Sales and Membership Rewards
The Membership SuperMod allows you to create Membership Groups in Miva Merchant giving the store owner ways to reward customers through Customer Appreciation Discounts, Sales and Points that can be redeemed for a discount. The storeowner can make various Membership Groups allowing the owner to offer different levels of Membership (and its benefits) depending on the “level of loyalty” of the customer. Customers can be automatically moved from one Membership Group to the next as their purchasing increases. The Membership SuperMod also provides facilities to create special time-based sales for all shoppers in the store.
Key Benefits:
User Interface Independent: Utilizes standard features of Miva Merchant for setting discounts and availability. Can be used with MMUI and OpenUI.
Full automatic control of all Price and Availability Group customer assignments. Membership Groups define a set of price and availability groups that are automatically applied to all members of the Membership Group.
Membership Groups can have a set beginning date, expiration date or specific duration
Configurable to display discounts as a price reduction in the basket and checkout screens so customer is aware of their savings
Basket price adjustments are performed when a user logs in; thus allowing the customer to take advantage of their membership even if they log in after shopping.
Membership and Sales Features:
Time-duration based sales: The store administrator can configure special “Automatic” membership groups that apply to every customer immediately upon login. This is useful for creating special sales periods where all shoppers receive a discount on any or all products in the store
Membership Rewards Program: Provide multiple levels of discounts to customers based on their purchase history. Memberships into discount (price) groups can occur by point accumulation, purchase accumulation, or points spent.
Points Redemption Program: Provide a points redemption program where customers accumulate points based on purchase history, then can receive discounts in the store by redeeming points for discounts.
Exclusive Membership Groups: The storeowner can create membership groups that remove the customer from all other groups as they enter an exclusive group.
Automatic entry into membership groups based on:
Purchase of a specific product
Prior Price or Availability Group membership
Entering Membership Code into the customer account
Automatic removal from membership groups based on:
Allowed duration of a membership
Expiration date of a membership
Entry into an exclusive group
Manual expiration by administrator
Customer benefits:
Receive pre-established discounts at checkout when part of a Membership Group
Accumulate points when making purchases
Redeem accumulated points when making purchases
Receive pre-established discounts and earn/use points even if login to Membership Group during a shopping session
Pay with dollars (in addition to points) if there are not enough points accumulated to cover the cost of the entire order
Storeowner has complete control when creating Membership Groups
Optionally create a “Signup Fee” for the Membership Group
Limit the duration of a Membership Group (in days) – great for running sales!
Manually adjust the number of points in a customer record
Allow or disallow points to be used to pay for tax or shipping
Include Price and Availability Groups in the Membership Group
Track total purchases, discounts, points earned and points spent by customer
Add customers to a group and individually specify their end date within the Membership Group
Determine thresholds for automatic inclusion of a customer in a Membership Group
Product Requirements: The major features of the Membership SuperMod are provided through the standard Miva Merchant API. Thus, this module can be used in any Miva Merchant 4.x store. However, in order to redeem points at checkout and fully customize the module display and layout features, you must be using a UI module that provides templates or tokens- either OpenUI or MMUI with the Copernicus DynamicTemplate Engine. OpenUI users who also have the OpenUI SuperMod can perform additional customizations that are not available when just using OpenUI.
Uncompiled Miva Merchant 4.00-4.13:
OpenUI 4.9+ based stores
MMUI based stores
Miva Merchant 4.14+
OpenUI 4.9+ based stores
MMUI based stores
When the Membership SuperMod is used with Dynamic Templates for MMUI-based stores or with the OpenUI SuperMod for OpenUI-based stores, the storeowner can take advantage of the templates and tokens available in these modules thus allowing the storeowner to tailor the module output to his specific needs.

This tutorial subscription is different than all other Miva Merchant training methods because it is constantly updated, there are OpenUI and MMUI tutorials, as well as extensive tutorials on most popular third party modules, including offline products like Storeman. With the cooperation of third party developers, when a module is updated, or a new module is released, Merchant How To will create a new tutorial.
And more as it is released. Click the link to see examples of tutorials.
NOTES: Please allow up to 24 hours for activation. Tutorial Flash files can be large, so it is recommended that you have a broadband Internet connection to enjoy the tutorials. This tutorial subscription is new, so not all tutorials listed at MerchantHowTo.com are immediately available. Also, since this subscription is essentially electronic distribution of knowledge, and since there are several examples and a list of tutorials available prior to purchase, no refunds can be granted on these tutorials.
The CheckOut SuperMod allows your customers to determine the shipping method for each individual item in a single order and then the appropriate shipping and tax calculations are made to determine the total shipping amount for the entire order. Items in an order that are using the same shipping method are grouped to properly calculate the shipping price for the group of items. Now your customers can check out of your store with multiple shipping methods or shipping addresses* in the same order and the shipping is calculated properly.
Key Benefits Include:
Advanced Shipping Screen that gives customers the ability to select a different shipping method for every item in the order
When the Advanced Shipping Screen is used, the items in the order are internally grouped by shipping method so that items using the same shipping method are calculated and displayed together
Customer can choose to go to Advanced Shipping Screen to ship every item via a separate shipping method or can choose to not go to the Advanced Shipping Screen and instead ship everything in the order using the same shipping method
Configurable title for the link to the Advanced Shipping Screen from the payment/shipping selection checkout screen.
Shipping charges from the Advanced Shipping Screen can be viewed on further checkout screens including the Screen Invoice and emailed invoice
Return to shopping after having used the Advanced Shipping Screen and the settings are remembered for checkout and shopper is automatically taken to the Advanced Shipping Screen upon checkout
Ability to split line items of multiple-quantity products into individual line-items for different option selections including shipping and address* selections.
Works with existing third-party shipping modules
Integrates and shares data with the Shipping SuperMod and Address SuperMod from Copernicus giving you even more functionality!
When used with the Address SuperMod, each item in the order can be shipped to a different address. Upon checkout, items to common addresses using common shipping methods are grouped together, and proper shipping charges are applied to each shipment. Further, items are then grouped by address for proper tax calculations to each address in the order.
Extra functionality for users of the OpenUI SuperMod – Special Virtual Modules and tokens are provided for advanced control over checkout displays. Bonus Virtual Module provides the ability to “Split Line Items” in the basket (normally only appears on advanced shipping screen).
Note: Multiple address selections are only available when used with the Address SuperMod.
For complete control of the checkout process the Address SuperMod™, CheckOut SuperMod™, and Shipping SuperMod™ all work together. Each item in the basket can then be shipped to a different address using a different shipping method. Shipping methods available to each address can be filtered based upon the products in the basket, the destination, etc., and shipping and tax for each shipment is calculated individually.
Please Note - The CheckOut SuperMod significantly alters the checkout process of your store. The CheckOut SuperMod takes the checkout process beyond that allowed by Miva Merchant, which is why the module allows your customers to checkout of your storefront with multiple shipping methods and/or to multiple addresses (when used with the Address SuperMod) in a single order. Please be sure to test-drive this module on Miva Mia with any other third-party modules you have installed. To get a free distribution of the CheckOut SuperMod for use on Miva Mia, just fill out a Trial Request Form at http://www.copernicusllc.com/support/free/trial.
The Address SuperMod™ allows customers to store multiple shipping addresses with their customer account in your Miva Merchant store. Customers can select a shipping and billing address from their list of stored addresses during checkout.
Key Benefits Include:
Allows customers to store multiple shipping addresses within their account
Allows customers to choose the order Ship-To and Bill-To address from the list of stored addresses using a drop-down menu during checkout
Integrates and shares data with other checkout enhancement modules from Copernicus such as the CheckOut SuperMod and Shipping SuperMod.
For complete control of the checkout process the Address SuperMod™, CheckOut SuperMod™, and Shipping SuperMod™ all work together. Each item in the basket can then be shipped to a different address using a different shipping method. Shipping methods available to each address can be filtered based upon the products in the basket, the destination, etc., and each shipment to each address calculated individually.
Please note: when the Address SuperMod is used in a store without the CheckOut SuperMod, the customer can only choose a Ship To address (from his list of addresses) for the entire order. The customer cannot designate a separate Ship To address for each product in the order. This advanced functionality is only available when the Address SuperMod is used in conjunction with the CheckOut SuperMod.
The OpenUI SuperMod provides you with advanced display and formatting capabilities for any Miva Merchant store using OpenUI.

Bill-To/Ship-To Match
Uses existing shipping modules
Allows storeowner to constrain shipping methods available for each product in the store. Customers can only checkout of the store when all products in the order have a common shipping method. *
Integrates and shares data with other checkout enhancements from Copernicus
* If you use the Shipping SuperMod and a customer tries to purchase products that cannot all be shipped with the same method, no shipping methods will be available to the customer at checkout because your shipping rules are mutually exclusive and Miva Merchant on its own does not allow multiple shipping calculations in the same order. You can solve this by adding the advanced functionality of the Copernicus CheckOut SuperMod to your store, OR, allow for a "least common denominator" shipping method that is always available for all products. To learn how to do this, go to the Shipping SuperMod FAQ on the Copernicus website.
Example Usage:
A storefront that sells cakes and jelly beans online has a shipping problem. When a customer purchases a cake, the cake needs to be delivered overnight so that the cake is fresh upon delivery. When a customer buys jelly beans – they can be shipped using regular ground shipping since the jelly beans won’t go stale for quite a long time. Since the storefront offers overnight air and regular ground shipping, many customers are choosing regular shipping for their cakes and are very upset when they receive a stale cake 5 days later. The Shipping SuperMod allows the storefront owner to limit the shipping choices given to the customer given what the customer places in his shopping basket. Using the Shipping SuperMod, the storeowner creates shipping constraints on each of the products in the store – thus allowing the cake to only be shipped via overnight air. He allows the jelly beans to be shipped via overnight air or regular ground shipping. If the customer only purchases jelly beans, the customer can have a choice of overnight or regular ground shipping. If the customer chooses just a cake, he is given only the choice of overnight shipping. If the customer has jelly beans and a cake in his shopping basket, his shipping choices are limited to “overnight air” (to guarantee the freshness of the cake) since “overnight” air was created by the storefront owner as the “least common denominator” shipping method (i.e. all products in the store have the option of overnight air as a shipping method.) The customer can checkout of the store since the order has a valid shipping option.
SPECIFICATIONS & TECHNICAL NOTES
Number of items in a basket:
Limit shipping methods available based on the number of items in the basket.
Subtotal of basket:
Restrict the shipping methods available given a threshold for the subtotal of the basket.
Day of week:
Limit the days that a specific shipping method is available (all/weekend/weekdays).

States:
Limit the shipping methods available to customers based on their Ship-to state (in the US).
Zip Codes / Prefixes
You can specify that a shipping method is only available to certain zip codes. The zip codes are treated as prefixes; for example, setting a zip code constraint to 349 will only allow the method to be used for zip codes between 34990 and 34999.
Weight Minimum:
Constrain the shipping methods available based upon total order weight minimum.
Weight Maximum:
Constrain the shipping methods available based upon total order weight maximum.

The Import/Export SuperMod™ provides advanced data imports and exports for all Miva Merchant databases, including the ability to directly import and export any 3rd party module databases. Any Miva Merchant database can be edited directly in any text editor, spreadsheet or desktop database program such as Microsoft Access and Excel.
Key Benefits Include:
Never purchase another import or export module again!
Export any Miva Merchant database to tab-delimited text file, including 3rd party module databases
Edit the text file using your favorite desktop application such as Microsoft™ NotePad, Excel or Access
Import the changes back into your Miva Merchant store
Provides Import/Export capability for modules that do not provide data imports or exports natively
Fix corrupted databases and store packing issues with a text editor
Time-out safe! Export and import large databases without any worries of the web server or browser timing out! Features automatic refreshing to cycle through large import files.
Miva Merchant storeowners now have a single import/export solution for handling any data transfer operation, regardless of the module provider or Miva Merchant feature. The Import/Export SuperMod can export any Miva Merchant database to flat file. The storeowner can then edit this file and re-import the changes!
Example Usage 1: Importing Large Product Databases Customers who have many products often have difficulty uploading all products through the standard Miva Merchant product import. Timeouts can prevent the import from completing, leaving the store in an unknown state. The Import/Export SuperMod provides timeout protection, and will allow the store-owner to load even the largest of product databases without timeout issues.
Example Usage 2: Fixing Duplicate Record Issues A common problem for some Miva Merchant users, duplicate database records or ids can cause significant operational issues within your Miva Merchant store. Until now, the only way to fix the duplicate records was to edit the Miva Database files by hand, which requires special purpose database software or contracting to a Miva consultant. The Import/Export SuperMod provides the storeowner with an easy way to edit and fix duplicate database records using any text editor, Excel or even Access.
Example Usage 3: Import and Export 3rd Party Module Data Many excellent third party modules exist that provide extended store functionality. However, many of these products do not contain an import/export function for configuration data. If the module allows configuration for each category or product, configuring it properly in a large store can be very time consuming using the Miva Merchant web interface. The Import/Export SuperMod allows the storeowner to export any database, including those from 3rd party modules! Now importing configuration data into any module database, regardless of the module vendor, can be accomplished
Please note: If you are using OpenDB, to be able to use this module you will also need to have installed MvSQL QUERY - available on MvCool for $15 or as a source kit for free on the CBS website.
Complete Checkout Control: For complete control of the checkout process, use the Address SuperMod, CheckOut SuperMod and Shipping SuperMod together. The customer can specify the shipping method and Ship To address of each individual item in the order while you constrain the shipping methods available to the shopper on a per product basis.
Shipping Calculation Grouping: When the customer selects multiple ship-to addresses or shipping methods for an order, the CheckOut SuperMod groups the items for each shipment and calculates the shipping total for each group. A descriptive charge for each shipping calculation is added to the basket and provided for review prior to checkout.
Sales Tax Calculation Grouping: When the customer selects multiple ship-to addresses, items are grouped by address and your tax rule is applied properly for each address. A descriptive charge for each tax calculation is added to the basket and provided for review prior to checkout.
Give your customers the ability to specify multiple shipping addresses and shipping methods for different items in their basket, while you retain complete control over which shipping options are made available to them, and in which order.
OpenUI Supermod is an excellent module designed to allow site control beyond any other means. It allows micro-control at high speeds, instead of using bulky modules that take over entire screens and take longer to load. However, it's kind of difficult to learn, and it takes some time to find the hook points and use the SuperMod admin to make up a Virtual Module (VMod). I've found that the benefits are worth the effort, but I sure would have loved a shortcut to the VMods I wanted.
Well, this DoublePlus VMod Pack has eight highly useful VMods to give you that shortcut. Even better, you can modify all of these easily in the SuperMod admin by simply replacing the text you don't want with the text you do want - without knowing MivaScript! These VMods are in a single Zip file for your convenience.
1. Change Email to E-mail: Consistency is highly important in a web site from a usability standpoint. Miva uses Email, while most sites use E-mail. So, if you prefer E-mail, then this VMod is for you!
2. Login and Account Screen Enhancements: This VMod allows you to make many changes on the login and account screens for a more customer-friendly account creation, edit and login process. It changes all instances of Login to Sign In. It has replaced text in several other areas.
3. United States Only Account and Checkout Changes: This VMod is for businesses that sell only in the United States. It changes some of the labels on the account creation/edit screen and removes the "Other State/Province" field. Be sure to go to the Miva Admin and choose Countries and unclick all countries other than the United States - this will make United States appear without a drop down list. Then, go to States and remove "Outside US" from the states list to remove it from the drop down list.
4. Change Code to Item #: This VMod changes every instance of Code to Item #. If you prefer a different word, install this VMod, then edit it in the SuperMod admin to change all instances of Item # to what you want.
5. Change "Price" to "Your Price": I like "Your Price" better than simply "Price", especially when I use Price Groups. You may want to use something else, which only takes editing the VMod in the SuperMod Admin to make the changes.
6. "Ship Via" and "Pay With" Changes: Ship Via and Pay With are not very descriptive. So I made this VMod to change them. You can go in and change them to whatever you want.
7. Better Error Message: Changes "One or more required fields were not filled out correctly." to "Missing Information: One or more fields are not filled out correctly. Please look for items in RED below." Now, isn't that better?
8. Put Proper Spacing in City State Zip in Checkout: Have you been annoyed by the lack of spaces in the City,StateZip output on the checkout and invoice screens? How unprofessional does that look? Well, here's the fix!
Full-featured "Membership" module for discounts, purchase awards, availability groups, etc.
Membership features can include:
Assignment to either Price or Availability groups (or both)
Membership Points - Each purchase earns X points per dollar
Point redemption - Y points can be redeemed for a discount
Memberships can be assigned based on:
Total Orders Plateau - after purchasing $X total (also searches past orders to build order history)
Assignment can be restricted to customers within a specific Price or Availability group (or both)
Manually by Store Administrator (regardless of Price or Availability group)
Memberships can have an associated Membership Length (in days) and an Admin-editable expiration date. They can also be infinite memberships.
Possible uses:
Customer Appreciation discounts -- "After purchasing $500 of merchandise in our online store, you become a member of our Gold Level, receiving a 5% discount. When your order totals reach $1000, you become a Platinum member, and receive a 15% discount on all products!!!" (This would be done with Price Group assignment).
Points Discounts -- Set up a Membership with a plateau of 0.01 to give all customers who purchase a membership into your Points system.
The Payment SuperMod™ allows you to control what payment options your customer sees and the order in which those options are listed. It also allows you to add extra data collection elements for each payment method in your store.
Key Benefits Include:
Control the text displayed for each payment method
Filter payment methods available to the customer based on:
Day of week
Time Ranges
Availability Groups
Ship-To Country
Ship-To State
Order Minimum/Maximum
Bill-To/Ship-To Match
Add extra data collection for each payment method
Use existing payment modules
Filter payment methods on a per product basis
Example Usage:
A storefront that sells jelly beans online has a payment problem. In an effort to reduce fraudulent transactions, the company manually processes all international credit card transactions. Therefore, they can only accept credit
cards from banks outside of the US during the Monday – Friday work week when an employee is available to enter the credit card number into the credit card processor.
A Brazilian grandfather wants to purchase 20 pounds of jelly beans for his grandchildren who are coming to visit for the summer. He places his order on a Monday evening and is not given any credit card options for payment.
The payment form asks him to come back during business hours to perform the transaction or to use an alternative form of payment such as PayPal or wire transfer. The grandfather decides to wait to process his transaction until Tuesday morning and logs
onto the site, finds credit card options for payment and submits his credit card.
An employee runs the credit card processing, the transaction is approved
and the jelly beans are
shipped out immediately.
So as not to irritate the Grandfather later in the summer when he returns to the website on a Wednesday evening to purchase another 20-lb. bag of jelly beans
for his grandchildren, the storeowner can place the Grandfather in a group of accounts that are permitted to use international credit cards even on weekends and not wait until regular business hours and manual processing.

Feature Details. Provide order status change emails to customers, keep track of order changes with backend administrative notes, and provide customers with an easy login view of their order status and invoice. Easily manage customer communication with this module and the related modules below.
The membership system allows you to automatically include customers into price groups when they log into your store and is based on their prior purchase history. You set up your price groups as you would any price groups and assign the applicable products to those groups. Then you specify a trigger level required for the customer to be a member of each group. You can insert tokens into the applicable screens, e.g. customer edit, welcome back returning and new customers. Then when they log in, the token runs the order history for the status codes you specify (e.g. F for filled), sums the totals, and checks to see if they meet a membership level. If they do, they are inserted into the highest qualified price group.
In addition to enhanced communication with your customers, you may want to manage product levels associated with orders and cancelled orders. Miva Merchant allows you to track stock levels of your products online. As products are placed in the basket, the level is decremented. If the order is not completed, the products are returned to the shelf when you delete expired baskets. If the order is cancelled, the products are not automatically returned to stock in the core Miva Merchant. The customer and product management modules interface with the built in internal inventory management (IM) system to improve the overall IM usability.
In the administrative interface:
Shipping tracking numbers, entered through admin, display in the customer account and the status update email (can be linked directly to the shipper tracking page)
Change the order status and optionally send the customer an order status email which can vary based on the style of the status email chosen. Email styles are created using templates with tokens for insertion of specific variables. Can update several orders at once with the bulk status update feature.
Run an end of day-productivity report for all dates, a range of dates, or a specific date displaying all records or just the records with a specific status. A convenient link to the order edit screen makes viewing an individual order quick and easy.
Re-establish inventory levels for a product when an order has been cancelled (auto-restock) or new quantities are put in your inventory.
Run a Stock Level Report to determine which items are nearing depletion or all products being managed for inventory. The module admin console includes an easily editable interface to change the inventory levels of all/any products in the report.
Export a flat file of product codes, quantity, and product name for easy mass editing/importing or to interface with your office backend systems or for re-import into Merchant itself.
Additional order related data can be added in the admin screen; employee code making the status change, date of the change, narrative notes about the order, numeric value (e.g. for adjustments). Multiple admin updates can be made to each order's record by any department within your store (packing, shipping, accounting, returns, etc).
From the customer account record:
Customers can view the status of all of their orders, including update information (e.g. tracking numbers) which is entered by the store owner through admin. The order status history display can be modified by the store owner with a template and tokens. You can even include hot links to carriers' tracking systems with the number filled in. You'll need to enter your carrier tracking URLs into the module's admin configuration screen. The number of carrier URLs you include in admin is not limited.
Customers can view their previous invoices as long as they are in online batches or still in the unbatched orders.
Even after orders and batches are deleted (you may delete processed orders to save disk space) the customer can still review the basic products listed in their order along with the shipping and payment info.
Customers can re-order/duplicate a previous order with a single click from the invoice (order details page) which are still in online batches (i.e. not deleted) or as yet unbatched orders.
Be sure to take a look at our other related modules which can enhance store - customer - vendor communication even further. They include:
Contact Manager - provide a support interface without needlessly including your email on your store's pages for spam harvesters to capture
Event Reminder - customers and store admin can schedule reminders to themselves or others for specific events/tasks at specific times
Follow-on Contact - generate after sales communication at pre-determined points of time in the future
Mail Manager - generate template emails (with tokens) as HTML or text as an auto-response, e.g. as customer order confirmation or even welcome emails
The module currently fully supports the mivasql configuration of MIVA Merchant 5. It also supports MySQL as long as load balancing has the data stored on the single MySQL server. This would be the case in most of the server setups. For those that are not, we are in the process of converting the code for that remaining, very small group of MIVA Merchant stores. At this time we have not had a problem. Modules will be moved to the top of the queue as needed.
The Returns Processing module provides an integrated Returns Processing system for your Miva Merchant store. It provides your customers a contact form where the customer can request a return and then track the progress of that return. Within the Miva Merchant admin, the storeowner can approve or decline a return. For approved returns an RMA number is generated, the returned products are tracked, and the type of credit issued to the customer can be recorded. All of this tracking information for returns requests is provided to the customer in a Return History screen that can be viewed while logged into the store.
Key Benefits Customer Benefits:
“Return Request” web page for customers to request returns
Customer chooses from a drop down list the order number for which the return is requested.
Customer selects the products in the order for which the return is requested.
Customer chooses from a drop down list the reason for the return and can also add comments/message for the storeowner
“Return History” web page for customers to track return process
Customer can return to the storefront to review all progress with the return. (Customer must have an account to access this information)

Storeowner checks off items in the RMA as they arrive back at the store
Storeowner can change the dollar amount of refund/credit for the return
RMA automatically closes when all items have been checked off as received
Once the RMA is closed, the storeowner chooses the type of credit used to reimburse the customer for the returned items from a drop down list.

The purpose of this module is to allow customers to place a subscription order at a Miva Merchant (? Miva Corp) store which they will then pay for using their PayPal (? x.com) account. This module is licensed per domain. No additional store licenses are required if used within the same mall.
This module is specifically designed for subscription payments. It allows scheduling one or two trial periods, with or without a charge on the first trial. The second trail, if used, would charge the customer. You can skip the trial periods and only offer the regular subscription. The subsciption allows intervals established in days, weeks, months and years. The customer makes the first payment. They then pay at the store's preset interval automatically. PayPal notifies them as each payment due is paid. If the customer cancels or does not pay at any interval, the store owner is notified so that he/she can turn off the subscription. PayPal manages the payments and intervals and deposits the payments into your account automatically.
This module guides the customer to the PayPal payment screens so that they do not get to the invoice screen without properly entering pay data. When the customer clicks the Pay button at the PayPal site, you can have the PayPal Instant Payment Notification send a silent update back to your payment history file which can be viewed in your Merchant admin:order edit screen. Unlike some other modules, if the customer does not return to Merchant, his order will still be processed and email notifications sent. When returning to your store, the invoice page will be displayed. You can also add additional instructions to inform customers what to expect at the PayPal site.
The module default will allow all of your products to be purchased with subscriptions. However, you can limit that to only product codes which you want to sell as subscriptions. Use this module for magazine or ezine subscriptions. You can even use it for membership programs. As long as the customer keeps their payments current, you keep their membership active. If they fail to keep current, PayPal notifies you of the status. Use it to manage domain registrations or web hosting fees. If you sell software licenses which are renewable, PayPal can keep track of the renewal dates and notify the customer and you.

Although the PayPal system is not like real time credit card processing and authorization systems, it is more like using the simple credit card validation. PayPal does the authorization and sends you a confirmation email. You match the Merchant notification emails with the PayPal confirmation emails. For added security, it is advisable to check the status on the PayPal web site (linked to the specific transaction within Merchant admin). Once confirmations are verified that the money has transferred to your account, you can supply the products.
The Merchant version 2.x, 3.x and 4.x PayPal payment module can be used with both the MMUI and OpenUI look and feel. If using the MMUI, an optional code edit can be also made to include the payment method in the merchant notification email. You may find it advantageous to use our Show Payment Type module instead which lists all payment methods in the email, not just PayPal. No code edits are needed if you are using the OpenUI for either the PayPal or Show Payment Type modules.

The CustCredit module allows you to offer store credit to your customer for returned items. The credit is tracked with the customer’s account and is automatically applied to the next purchase when the customer checks out, simplifying your returns process and minimizing credit card charges for refunds.
Key Benefits Include:
Customer Store Credit page in the
Miva admin
Storefront owner enters store
credit into customer’s account
Optional area to track reason for
credit
Refund credit displayed in Edit
Customer Account screen when
customer logs into storefront
Refund automatically applied to
customer’s basket as he checks
out
Refund amount available to customer
until it is depleted by purchases
Example Usage: A storefront that sells cakes and jelly
beans online accepts returns for jelly
beans that arrive stale at the customer’s
doorstep. It does not accept
returns for the cakes that it sells because
the cakes are baked and shipped
on the same day. They are never stale
since they get shipped over night.
(The storefront owner solved this problem
with the Copernicus Shipping SuperMod!)
Well, the storefront owner purchased a
batch of jelly beans from a discounted
wholesaler (whose name will not be
revealed here!) who sold him 200
pounds of stale jelly beans! The storefront
owner did not know that he was
sold stale jelly beans and now all of his
customers are receiving stale jelly
beans!! This is a storefront owner’s
nightmare!
The storefront owner wants to issue
store credit to his customers rather
than refund the money for the stale
jelly beans. He wants his customers to
be able to come back to his storefront
and place new orders that allow them
to access the store credit they received
as a result of the stale jelly beans.
Therefore, the storefront owner invests
in the Copernicus CustCredit module
and can customize his storefront to
offer store credit for returns.
Thus solving his returns problem.....if
only that wholesaler would take the
stale jelly beans back.......
SPECIFICATIONS & TECHNICAL NOTES
Please note this module requires OpenUI v.4.53 (uncompiled) with the Admin Extensions installed, or OpenUI v.4.71 (compiled).
When used alone, that is, without the Copernicus Returns Processing system, you must manually enter the credit information from your customers. When used in conjunction with our Returns Processing system, you can provide store credit automatically as a method of refunding your customer for a return.
