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 an event organizer is attempting to change an event's E-Commerce account in Plan > Event Setup > Financials in Certain, and the organizer is unable to select a different E-Commerce Account, there are two items to check.
Event Currency
Once a charge is added to a registrant, the currency for that event is locked. If the event is locked to USD, and the only other E-Commerce accounts are in other currencies, then the organizer 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 drop-down absence indicates that the event is currently assigned an E-Commerce account that is marked as inactive. To change the setting for the event, the organizer would need to first restore the E-Commerce account.
1. Navigate to Account Settings > Registration > Financial. 2. Locate the E-Commerce account being used by the event on the Financial page. The E-Commerce account is 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, the organizer should be able to navigate to Plan > Event Setup > Financials, and select a different/new E-Commerce account for payment processing.
