Charges vs transactions
The API return object for a given invoice now includes two
objects: [charges] and [transactions]. I
just want confirm they are what i think they are and behave the way
I'd expect:
[charges] = the total amount to be charged for that
invoice [transactions] = actual Auth.net transaction
processes. So if the first attempt was declined but the 2nd
succeeded, 2 records would show up under here.
Side question: Any way I can tell from looking at a given
invoice object that the invoice is paid in full or outstanding? Is
this state represented by the value of
paidTransactionId?

Frank -- All of those assumptions are correct. If you calculate the sum of charges (charge.quantity * charge.eachAmount) it should equal the transaction.amount.

Awesome, thanks.
Will the total value of an invoice ever be spread across multiple transactions, or are invoice values processed atomically (i.e. all or none)?

Yup, it's all or nothing.

Great, that makes my coding assumptions sooooo much easier. :)
