Updating Order Status with Altura

Altura supports sending order cancellations and package tracking information to merchants' websites. To configure the Order Manager properly, you must set five system parameters. Once these parameters are configured and the proper setup has been performed on the merchant's website, customers can look up the status of their orders.

 

AlturaSendConfirmations

 

Set this parameter to True. The program will send receipt, shipping and cancellation notifications to the Altura status system.

 

AlturaSendShippingNotifications

 

Specify an action that will trigger the program to send shipping confirmation notifications to the Altura status system. The choices are Approving the Order, Setting the Actual Ship Date, or Adding the Tracking Number. Note: AlturaSendConfirmations must be set to True to use this feature.

 

AlturaFTPServer - Hidden Parameter

*Note: This parameter is set for you when you purchase the program and is hidden from view under normal circumstances. It should never be changed except by Stone Edge Technologies, Inc.

 

AlturaFTPUserName and AlturaFTPPassword

 

Enter the appropriate username and password for your website's FTP server to enable the Order Manager to upload shipment and cancellation information.
