Manual order input

I sometimes receive a phone order from a customer.

Currently I only receive payment via paypal.

I'd like to be able to enter that phone order into Ubercart, but don't know how I to do this (since paypal requires a login).

Ideas?

Hmm... you could create the order and send a money request manually, but I don't know an automatic way to match up the two. We have a manual system in house for in our old site that folks use for this. If you're using PayPal's virtual terminal you could still collect CC payments over the phone and manually enter the payments on the order.

That manual connection of the payment to paypal what I was wondering, so I guess that can be done?

Yeah, you could take an order on the phone, send someone a PayPal money request from your PayPal account, and update their order manually when you see that they sent payment.
