Business::PayPal::API::RefundTransaction(3)

NAME
Business::PayPal::API::RefundTransaction - PayPal RefundTransaction API

SYNOPSIS
  use Business::PayPal::API::RefundTransaction;

  ## see Business::PayPal::API documentation for parameters
  my $pp = new Business::PayPal::API::RefundTransaction ( ... );

  my %response = $pp->RefundTransaction( TransactionID => $transid,
                                         RefundType    => 'Full',
                                         Memo          => "Please come again!" );

DESCRIPTION
Business::PayPal::API::RefundTransaction implements PayPal's RefundTransaction API using SOAP::Lite to make direct API calls to PayPal's SOAP API server. It also implements support for testing via PayPal's sandbox. Please see Business::PayPal::API for details on using the PayPal sandbox.

  RefundTransaction
Implements PayPal's RefundTransaction API call. Supported parameters include:

  TransactionID
  RefundType (defaults to 'Full' if not supplied)
  Amount
  Memo
  currencyID (defaults to 'USD' if not supplied)

as described in the PayPal "Web Services API Reference" document. The default currencyID setting is 'USD' if not otherwise specified. The default RefundType setting is 'Full' if not otherwise specified.

If RefundType is set to 'Full', Amount is ignored (even if set). If RefundType is set to 'Partial', Amount is required.

Returns a hash containing the results of the transaction. The Ack element is likely the only useful return value at the time of this revision (the Nov. 2005 errata to the Web Services API indicates that the documented fields 'TransactionID', 'GrossAmount', etc. are not returned with this API call).

Example:

  my %resp = $pp->RefundTransaction( TransactionID => $trans_id,
                                     RefundType    => 'Partial',
                                     Amount        => '15.00', );

  unless( $resp{Ack} !~ /Success/ ) {
      for my $error ( @{$response{Errors}} ) {
          warn "Error: " . $error->{LongMessage} . "\n";
      }
  }

  ERROR HANDLING
See the ERROR HANDLING section of Business::PayPal::API for information on handling errors.

  EXPORT
