    <p>I am using the Paypal API (Website Payments Pro) to set up recurring payments with customers, and am currently testing in the paypal-sandbox. Paypal requires me to set up both Express Checkout and Direct Payment.</p> <p>Express Checkout: Works fully with recurring payments. I get a 'success' response, and I can see the payment profile in my test account. To do this, I use SetExpressCheckout to have a user be able to get to Paypal, sign in, and be redirected to a page of my choice. I then use 'CreateRecurringPaymentsProfile' to actually create the profile with the required information.</p> <p>Direct Payment: I do get a 'success' response as outlined below, but I cannot see the recurring payment profile in the test account. I am simply gathering the information on my site and sending it off to Paypal with 'CreateRecurringPaymentsProfile'.</p> <p>Here is the 'success' output of my attempt at creating a recurring payment:</p> <pre><code>ACK: "Success" AMT: "1%2e00" AVSCODE: "X" BUILD: "2075688" CORRELATIONID: "bbfe83b685c0a" CURRENCYCODE: "USD" CVV2MATCH: "M" TIMESTAMP: "2011%2d09%2d12T14%3a27%3a58Z" TRANSACTIONID: "62214391KD595633B" VERSION: "54%2e0" </code></pre> <p>I can try to provide any other details! Any help is appreciated.</p> <hr> <p>Edit: Thanks for the help thus far. I am, however, receiving a success message once again with no proof of the transaction in the test account. The JSON output is this:</p> <pre><code>ACK: "Success" BUILD: "2085867" CORRELATIONID: "3e84486e74e80" PROFILEID: "I%2d4Y707DELPFKD" PROFILESTATUS: "ActiveProfile" TIMESTAMP: "2011%2d09%2d12T20%3a13%3a15Z" VERSION: "78%2e0" </code></pre> <hr> <p>Thanks a lot,</p> <p>Daniel Moniz</p>

    1. COI am a little confused. You say "I can actually see new recurring payment profiles in the test account" but then "the payment profile does not show up in my test account." Are these two different test accounts?

    2. CO@Chriszuma Apologies! My wording was quite awful, but I believe it is clearer now.

    3. COAh, I understand now. Unfortunately, I have no idea why that would be happening. Sounds like a bug in their system.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
