Purchase Notification

When a purchase is made, the purchase number and a URL are e-mailed to the SalesMaster. The e-mail contains a link for the person to log in and retrieve the sales information (using SSL encryption to protect the data).

Encrypted Mail Notification

If you enabled PGP mail delivery, the purchase information is encrypted and mailed to the salesmaster. The message is digitally signed by the Transact e-commerce engine, and then encrypted with the SalesMaster's public key. This guarantees:

  1. The information was not forged; it positively came from the Transact e-commerce
  2. Nobody but the salesmaster can read the information (secure financial transaction!)
You should download and install the Transact e-commerce public key so that you can verify the digital signature.

You can modify the message sent to the salesmaster. The file is stored in ~/privdata/Transact/email.txt. This is a normal text file, with special variables to reference the purchase information.

  1. There is a working example already in place. You can simply modify this file to suit your needs.

  2. All of the normal macro variables (<!-- TYPE: variable -->) are available to you.
    See the Variables page for more info.
