{toc}h1. Introduction

UltraCart allows you to accept payments through the UltraCart shopping  engine, allowing you to integrate these auctions with your existing back  office infrastructure.

\\
*Step 1 -- Configure Auction*
\\
On the first screen you will need to select the site which the auction is hosted in the drop down menu (Ebay or Yahoo).  Next enter the auction number.  If you have more than one auction item, enter each auction number on a separate line in the "Auction Number(s)" field.  When you press the "Continue" button, UltraCart will retrieve the auction information and display it on the next screen.
\\
*Step 2 -- Verify Auction Information*
\\
Please confirm that the auction number(s) you have entered is/are correct.  If the information shown is correct, click on the link to continue to the next step.  If the information is incorrect, press the "click here" link or the back button on your browser to return to the previous screen.  Make sure you have entered the correct auction number and selected the correct auction site.

\\
*Step 3 -- Quantity, Weight and Item ID*
\\
Enter the quantity of items won (being purchased) into the "Quantity" field. By using the UltraCart Payment Wizard, you can utilize your existing shipping rules in third-party auctions.  To do so, simply enter the item weight in the "weight" field. Alternatively, you can specify a fixed shipping cost in the "Fixed Shipping Cost" field at the bottom.
\\
If you would like to specify the Item ID (from your store) of the product being sold, you can do so in the Item ID Field.  This is especially useful for those merchants using UltraBooks.  If you do not specify an Item ID, it will show up in the cart with the Item ID of the AUCTION.
