Hello @iceget ,   Are you using the Legacy name-value Pair (NVP) API call for your CreateRecurringPaymentsProfile  request? If so, the Activation Details Fields:   INITAMT (Optional) Initial non-recurring payment amount due immediately upon profile creation. Use an initial amount for enrollment or setup fees. Note: All amounts included in the request must have the same currency.   FAILEDINITAMTACTION (Optional) Action you can specify when a payment fails. Value is: ContinueOnFailure — By default, PayPal suspends the pending profile in the event that the initial payment amount fails. You can override this default behavior by setting this field to ContinueOnFailure. Then, if the initial payment amount fails, PayPal adds the failed payment amount to the outstanding balance for this recurring payment profile.   When you specify ContinueOnFailure, a success code is returned to you in the CreateRecurringPaymentsProfile response and the recurring payments profile is activated for scheduled billing immediately. You should check your IPN messages or PayPal account for updates of the payment status.   CancelOnFailure — If this field is not set or you set it to CancelOnFailure, PayPal creates the recurring payment profile, but places it into a pending status until the initial payment completes. If the initial payment clears, PayPal notifies you by IPN that the pending profile has been activated. If the payment fails, PayPal notifies you by IPN that the pending profile has been canceled.   Can you post an example of the endpoint you're calling and the payload you're sending?   Thank you.   Powered by Custom Software : NexWebSites.com PayPal Developers ...

Hello @BizQuestions ,   Why are you not able to test the recurring payment using the sandbox test business account?   Have you created a plan? If so, you should be able to test making a subscription to your plan using the {billing_plan_id}. You could test with the interval_unit set to DAY and interval_count of 1.   Thank you.

After sending, you can Record a payment for an invoice with the payment amount to record against the invoice. If you omit this parameter, the total invoice amount is marked as paid. This amount cannot exceed the amount due. ... View more

Hello @kwisatz ,   Yes, to move the invoice from a draft to payable state, you must send the invoice. Your question is understandable considering the ability to post a status of MARKED_AS_PAID. If the invoice is not in a payable state this parameter is ignored.   Thank you.   Powered by Custom Software : NexWebSites.com PayPal Developers ... View more
