Hi Yamil,
Evergreen stores the Stripe approval code in
money.credit_card_payment.approval_code. You will have multiple rows
matching a given approval_code if the patron paid for several charges.
Stripe only records the lump sum paid under the approval_code.

Terran or others,
Thanks for the info and feedback. You are making me realize that I am
wondering about a couple separate things about Stripe use in Evergreen.
First one, is figuring if patrons can be emailed a receipt from either
Stripe or EG if they paid a bill. Not sure if the EG Stripe
implementation supports this. This just as a convenience to the
patron, and apparently if Stripe get the patron email it will send the
patron a receipt email. Though I know the EG patron record will keep
track of past payments, and library staff should be able to look that
up (maybe patrons too?).
My second question is that I would like to see at at least one bit of
patron or transaction related info be sent to Stripe, just so if I
need to troubleshoot a payment I can tell transactions apart on
Stripe.com. Right now on the Stipe.com site I only see a transaction
cost. Though maybe there is a Stripe.com transaction number that is
stored in EG so I can reference each other? I checked on the EG staff
client by looking at one of my test Stripe payments, and did not seem
to see one. Though it could be in the EG database.
Does anyone have any comments on suggestions based on my questions?
Thanks in advance,
Yamil

Some of our libraries are using Stripe but we're not doing
anything that's not built in. Interesting idea, but I wonder if it
would be better to send the email through an action trigger
notification instead so that it could be for any type of payment
and without passing any extra information to an outside source?

Good Morning,
To anyone using Stripe payments in EG, have you customized the
relevant code to send the patron email address to Stripe, so
then Stripe can send the patron a receipt email after payment?
I am on EG 2.9 so this might be addressed in a later version
of EG. Just wondering if anyone has explored sending purposely
to Stripe anty additional patron metadata. We are also
thinking of sending just the number of bills paid in a
particular Stripe transaction.
Thanks in advance,
Yamil
