Cod: Reducing The Payment Amount

[Glasso]

Hi,

 

My shop has native Cash on delivery as the only payment method.

 

When a customer order is updated from the backoffice to remove some products, the invoice total changes but the payment amount shows the original amount. There is a message that x has been paid instead of y in payment section of the order.

 

Since the payment will only be made on delivery and based on the invoice amount, is there a way to reduce the supposed 'payment' to match the updated product total?

 

For increases to the order total, there seems a way to add a payment line in some of the order statuses, but I can't figure out how to reduce the payment amount.

 

I am on 1.6.1.4

 

Thanks.

Any one?

Ok, I may have found a way, for anyone looking for this.

 

Adding a negative payment goes through correctly and adds a payment line for COD that offsets the payments.

 

 

 

P.S.

The other thing I realized is that it is better to uncheck the 'Order Validated' and 'Delivery Slip' checkboxes for the 'Processing in progress' order status for COD.

That way, the payment shows zero and gets updated to the actual order amount on changing to a validated status. In my case, delivery is when the actual product list and payment amount are confirmed and hence I have set 'Delivered' status as validated and paid.
