Troubleshooting - Unable to Change Event's E-Commerce Account

This article will provide troubleshooting steps when attempting to change an event's E-Commerce account in Certain.

If you are attempting to change your event's E-Commerce account in Plan > Event Setup > Financials, but you are unable to select a different E-Commerce Account, there are two items you should check.

Event Currency

Once a charge is added to a registrant, the currency for that event is locked. If your event is locked to USD, and your only other E-Commerce accounts are in other currencies, then you will not be able to change the E-Commerce account.

Event is Currently Assigned a Deleted E-Commerce Account

If there is no drop-down for Payment Processing Account on the event's Plan > Event Setup > Financials page, this is an indication that the event is currently assigned an E-Commerce account that is marked as inactive. To change the setting for the event, you would need to first restore the E-Commerce account by going through the following steps:

1. Navigate to Account Settings > Registration > Financial. 2. Locate the E-Commerce account being used by the event on the Financial page (most likely in the Deleted section). 3. Click on the E-Commerce Account to edit it. 4. Click Restore in the lower right.

Once the E-Commerce account is restored, you should be able to navigate to Plan > Event Setup > Financials, and select a different/new E-Commerce account for payment processing.
