Item — Custom Fields

The extension adds 3 fields to the standard Item table. These fields are used for custom invoice text and credit card settlement integration.

Which Items Need These Fields

The items that need credit card article codes are those referenced in:

  1. AIR Order Item Mapping — The Booking Item and Service Fee Item for each product type/region combination
  2. Any other items that might appear on sales orders for credit card customers
caution

If a FirstCard or Diners article code is missing on an item that appears on a credit card customer's order, the credit card settlement will fail validation. Make sure all relevant items have the correct codes before go-live.
