theotherlebowski Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 hi all, new to the forums here but i've been keeping a close watch on the development of PS1.5 for some time now. i have a few questions regarding it's use and whether it can actually do what i'd like it to do: i want to set up a store where i sell goods (digital and real) from different suppliers but i want each supplier to receive payment from the sale of their products directly without me having to handle any of it at all. i know that paypal has a mechanism called parallel payments built into it's paypal express checkout feature but i've got no idea if this can be set up in presta shop. ideally i want to create an employee profile that allows people to set up their own products and manage their own items in the main store and also receive the money directly themselves... i have no desire to be an accountant! i have a solution to this running already using wordpress and a couple of addons but prestashop is a much more elegant proposition. also, i can't seem to get changes to profile permissions to save, there doesn't seem to be a save button and it's not doing it automatically either as i couldn't get to the main dashboard screen using a dummy customer i'd set up with a new profile and some permissions... any help on either of these two issues will be most gratefully received. jack.

benjamin utterback Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Hello Jack, welcome to the Forums! There are some modules that can handle parallel payments. I suggest you speak with the creators directly for any specific questions. Here is one for the 1.4x http://addons-modules.com/en/44-agile-prestashop-paypal-adaptive-payment-module-10.html and a Forum link highlighting this same module. http://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/157598-module-agile-paypal-adaptiveparallel-payment-module/ As far as permissions, what version of PrestaShop are you using? In 1.5 it does update automatically when you change permissions there should be a green check mark that pops up that says "Update Successful" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theotherlebowski Posted October 12, 2012 Author Share Posted October 12, 2012 hi, thanks for getting back. i'm using the 1.5.1 version at the moment. i created a new employee, created a profile and assigned it to the new employee and then edited the permissions for the profile. there was no indication that it had saved anything at all...

benjamin utterback Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Hello, yes, did the settings actually not change? When you went back into the permissions of that employee, did the changes save? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theotherlebowski Posted October 12, 2012 Author Share Posted October 12, 2012 nope, none of the things i'd selected were highlighted/checked and using the login i created for the test user it wouldn't get me into the dashboard, i assume because he had no permissions assigned...

benjamin utterback Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Hello, Okay, so you're adding a new employee, and chose the Profile, like SuperAdmin, did the E-mail send out to the one provided when you Added the Employee? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theotherlebowski Posted October 12, 2012 Author Share Posted October 12, 2012 i was trying to use an account for paypal sandbox testing so that may have been part of the problem... i'll have a play about with it again tomorrow and see what happens. thanks for your help so far though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
