Was this information Helpful?

Hi,

I'mnot currently using Drupal or Ubercart, but am looking to see if it has some specific features that I need.

When someone makes a purchase, how am I relayed his information? My company processes orders through forms, in a specific format. Would it be possible to get this information directly in this format, so I can easily input it into our order processors?

For example, Lets say that John Smith, from New York, NY bought three t-shirts, two large and blue (Product ID 111111 and one small and white (product ID 222222). This is how our order processors need this information:

John Smith
123 Fake St.
New York, NY 10001
United States
Order:111111(2)&size=large&color=blue,222222(1)&size=small&color=white

Is this possible to accomplish? If not with Drupal and Ubercart, with something else?

Help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Julien

Anything is possible, if you know how to program in PHP, or know someone who does, or can afford to hire someone who does. Since Drupal and Ubercart are both open source software, it makes it entirely possibly for anyone with the skills to make the appropriate modifications.

Cart Order

When a product is purchased using Ubercart an email is generated with the order information to both the customer and to the business. Both can be turned off.

In addition, if using PayPal the account information is transfered to PayPal. Again, completing the order process through a payment gateway can be turned off.

You can look through the contributed modules to see if anyone has posted a module that will work as needed for your application. Or one that is close that can be modified. http://www.ubercart.org/contrib

If not, then as pointed out, you can roll your own or contract with any number of Uber developers to design a specific module.
