PayPal API transaction final status -

i using paypalapiinterfaceclient (soap service) information transaction (method gettransactiondetails()) , need absolutely sure transaction status (it means - money has been sent no matter in direction).

when transaction completed , when still "on road"? example: assume, processed followed inprogress , changed completed or this. on other hand, denied or - don't know - voided not change in future.

can me please decide, status can accepted ultimate (like completed, may completed must not mean final money transfer) , ones still in 1 of sub-state?

i expect simple "money transferred" & "money not transferred" result, reality different.

shortly, mirror transaction result database , manage automatic transactions (from , client) need know this.

i using paymentstatuscodetype enumeration values , service iterates transaction history check if money transferred or not.

completed means it's done. may want instant payment notification (ipn). sends real-time updates when transactions hit paypal account can automate post-transaction tasks accordingly. includes handling e-checks or other pending payments won't complete few days, refunds, disputes, etc.
