Why do I get an error message: 'Payment totals could not be successfully assessed'?

HOW-TO:

The error occurs when no payment gateway has been selected in the event set up (even though ‘pay online’ has been enabled for an interactive site). See the how-to text below, and the related FAQ at the link:

Why is Pay Online 'grayed out' (not available as an option) in payment page setup?

Setup Panel

  1. Select Event, then Preferences

  2. Choose External Connections tab

  3. Select E-Commerce Account

  4. Enter E-Commerce Reference

  5. Save

The E-Commerce Reference is the code (your chosen letters/numbers) you’re using to identify transactions relating to this event, for example in your payment gateway and on bank statement.
