Question Title How do I use PGP Encryption with ShopFactory?
To use PGP Encryption you must install the PGP add-on (free of charge). This is what is used to encrypt your Order Notification emails. This add-on requires SalesManager to be installed with your ShopFactory software.
 

For  ShopFactory V7  users: 

You need to use ShopFactory V7.70 Build 9274 - this is the current build that has the in-built PGP module in SalesManager.

If you are not using the current Build 9274, please download and install the latest ShopFactory 7. Click HERE to download the software again.

 
For  ShopFactory V8 (Fixed version)  users:   

You need to use at least ShopFactory V8.10 - this is the build that has the in-built PGP module in SalesManager 8.

If you are not using the latest build of ShopFactory 8, please download and install ShopFactory 8 again. Click   HERE   to download the software again.  

 

Once PGP add-on is installed to your ShopFactory 8 installation folder you need to generate the PGP key in SalesManager and then put it in your payment settings - 

 
If you are using the latest ShopFactory release, skip step # 1 and proceed to Step #2.

1. Check that you have successfully installed the PGP Add On, making sure the Install Path is the correct version of Sales Manager directory  (click here for troubleshooting)
 
2. Open up Sales Manager application
 
3. Click on the Menu " File" and Select " Generate a new PGP Key"
 
4. It will ask for your email address.
 
Note : Make sure you use your email address where your orders are sent. Check your shop -> Properties -> Contact Details -> Email (for Orders) field.  It must also be a MAPI compliant email address, so you cannot use "hotmail" email address or yahoo email address for example.
 
5. Now Click on the Menu " File" and select " Show Public PGP Key"
 
It will look something like this
 
 
6. You need to copy everything in this window.   Click your mouse at the top of this window and drag your mouse to the very end to highlight it.   Then Click CTRL+C keys simultaneously on your keyboard to copy.
 
7. Now Open ShopFactory


Option A: FREE ORDER PROCESSING BY SHOPFACTORY

8. Setup your Shop to use Free Order Processing by ShopFactory with PGP encryption by doing the following:-
 
a) Click on Properties => Payment Methods Accepted from the Menu
 
b) Select Free Order Processing by ShopFactory, this is the first Option
 
follow the wizard and when you get to the screen below Click on box next to " I wish to use PGP Encryption for my orders" and Click Next button
 
 
 

 
Option B:  FREE GLOBECHARGE ACCOUNT

a) Click on Properties => Payment Methods Accepted from the Menu -> click Next
b) Select the third option from top: GlobeCharge
 
follow the wizard and when you get to the "GlobeCharge Account Management" screen, enter your Globecharge username and the Security ID. Then c lick on the checkbox next to " I wish to use PGP Encryption for my orders" and select Next button
10.  On the next screen, Paste the " Public PGP key" you copied from Sales Manager. You can do this by clicking in the field marked "PGP Public Key" box and pressing CTRL+V keys on your keyboard simultaneously.
 
 
 
 
11.  Enter the Email address you used in Sales manager in the field PGP key ID field. This is the same as your Email (for Orders).
 
12. Click Next and complete the Payment Setup (until Finish).
 
13. That is all  you need to do with adding PGP to ShopFactory.
 
Now when orders are placed in your shop they will be in an "encrypted format" which is unreadable. 
 
All you need to do is import your Orders into Sales manager to "decrypt" them and see them correctly.
