Spreedly and the Payment Gateway Customer record

Why isn’t a Payment Gateway Customer record created when I add a Payment Method via the Virtual Terminal with Spreedly as the Payment Gateway?

Since Spreedly does not have an equivalent record (ex. user id) for customers, a Payment Gateway Customer record will not be created in Salesforce.

Facing error while setting up webhook endpoint in Stripe OR Authorize.net OR in Communities with Virtual Terminal

You may see the following errors while setting up the endpoint in Stripe/Auth.net dashboard or if you are using the Virtual Terminal in the Salesforce community.

  1. Test Webhook Error:500 (stripe)
  2. Test Webhook Error:400 (stripe)
  3. Error occurred in connecting to endpoint (Auth.net)
  4. Result:[id=null, message=Problem with finding PG by label primary . List size: 0, success=false]” with an error 400 (stripe)
  5. Unable to find a Payment Gateway for id=null (Virtual Terminal in Salesforce Community)

To resolve this, please follow the below steps -

  1. Login to Salesforce, navigate to Setup > Sharing settings > Payment Gateway > Change the Default External Access from Private to Public Read Only.
  2. Uncheck the Secure guest user record access option. It overrides the Default External Access and sets it to private for every object including the Payment Gateway (PG).

Row with duplicate name at index:2

The Transaction can't be authorized.

Unable to see Payment objects in community

If the community user is unable to see the payment object (Example- Sales document) in the community, please verify the following -

  1. User has a Payment License (If production)
  2. User has assigned Blackthorn | Payments (Community/Platform User) permission set assigned.
  3. The organization-wide default for Payment Gateway = Public Read-Only.

Customer cus_AwROhSB7FyifGc does not have a linked source with ID ba_1AaYW9BQbf3hbNo9B8juK4lo

This error means that the related Payment Method on the Transaction no longer has a valid Card ID Token. What this means is most likely the card or ACH token was deleted in Stripe. Please view related Stripe Payment Gateway Customer record to verify if there is a valid Payment Method form. If there is no longer a valid Payment Method form, create a new payment for this Stripe Payment Gateway Customer OR edit the existing Payment Method with the updated card/ACH information, remove the values from the card id and customer id, select save and this Payment Method will sync back to Stripe.

The reason you cannot see the Related To field is that there is an issue with your Transaction Parent settings. Please navigate to Custom Settings, click manage next to Transaction Parents, verify that all records have a Transaction field with the correct API format.

Terminal error on new record screen

I_02_troubleshooting 4_5
