For further information on advanced settings, see Activating payment extensions.

Schedule Buckaroo Apex job (optional)​

FinDock regularly listens for webhook notifications from Buckaroo. This is normally sufficient for keeping payment data in FinDock up to date with Buckaroo.

However, it is possible that under certain condtions notifications are missed. To ensure you have all the latest data from Buckaroo, you can schedule a special Apex job, called BuckarooPendingInstallmentsSchedule, to handle updates on transactions.

The Apex batch can be scheduled as needed, but we suggest running it daily if you are going to use it. The job queries all Buckaroo installments in the Salesforce org with status ‘Pending’ and makes a callout to Buckaroo to get the latest status in Buckaroo and updates the installments accordingly as needed.

iDEAL QR with Payment Request Generator​

You can generate open or closed iDEAL QRs with the Payment Request Generator using the Ideal reference type.

note

You may need to contact Buckaroo to enable iDEAL QR for your merchant account.

There are several input mapping fields to define for the generator run, such as amounts, description, expiration date, and QR image size. The QR image size depends on how the QR will be distributed. If no size is defined, FinDock uses the default size of 100x100 pixels.

info

Currently the maximum QR image size is 2000x2000 pixels. Larger values result in an error in the generator run, and FinDock does not send callouts to Buckaroo.

For the generated values, you need to create custom fields - preferably Buckaroo specific - on the target object to store (output mapping) the following values:

  • Payment Reference: Text(255)
  • Payment URL: Url(255)
  • QR URL: Url(255)
  • QR Base 64: Long text Area(32768)

In addition, create a custom Description field (Text(35)) as the input field on Campaign, Campaign Member or other, where you can provide the text that is shown to the payer on the iDEAL payment page.

Payment API​

To test your Buckaroo configuration, you can use the following request in combination with the API.
