Error E00003 The element 'subscription' in namespace 'AnetApi/sml/v1/schema/AnetApiSchema.xsd' has invalid child element 'cusotmer' in namespace 'AnetApi/xml/v1/schema/AnetApiSchema.xsd'. List of possible elements expected: 'shipTo', profile' in namespace 'AnetApi/xml/v1/schema/AnetApiSchema.xsd'.

Getting this error when trying to add an ARB subscription. We're not using profiles, but according to the API docs, "customer" should be a valid sub element of "subscription".

Is the (https://api2.authorize.net/xml/v1/request.api) endpoint the problem?

Thanks for any help!

So you are creating XML with that. In your code below, I think it is the customer and billTo properties being out of order.  

 $args = array( "refId" => $invoice,
                   "subscription" => array(
                     "name" => $prd->post_title,
                     "paymentSchedule" => array(
                       "interval" => $this->arb_subscription_interval($sub),
                       "startDate" => Utils::get_date_from_ts((time() + (($sub->trial)?Utils::days($sub->trial_days):0)), 'Y-m-d'),
                       "totalOccurrences" => $total_occurrences,
                     ),
                     "amount" => Utils::format_float($sub->total),
                     "payment" => array(
                       "creditCard" => array(
                         "cardNumber" => sanitize_text_field($_POST['custom_cc_num']),
                         "expirationDate" => sanitize_text_field($_POST['custom_cc_exp_month']) . '-' . sanitize_text_field($_POST['custom_cc_exp_year']),
                         "cardCode" => sanitize_text_field($_POST['custom_cvv_code'])
                       )
                     ),
                     "order" => array(
                       "invoiceNumber" => $invoice,
                       "description" => $prd->post_title
                     ),
                     "billTo" => array(
                       "firstName" => $usr->first_name,
                       "lastName" => $usr->last_name
                     ),
                     "customer" => array(
                       "email" => $usr->user_email
                     )
                   )
                 );

 you are getting this error:

 error E00003 The element 'subscription' in namespace 'AnetApi/sml/v1/schema/AnetApiSchema.xsd' has invalid child element 'customer' in namespace 'AnetApi/xml/v1/schema/AnetApiSchema.xsd'. List of possible elements expected: 'shipTo', profile' in namespace 'AnetApi/xml/v1/schema/AnetApiSchema.xsd'.

Because the next child element following billTo is shipTo, but your request gives customer. Put customer after order and billTo after customer and it should work.

@Renaissance any ideas? I've tried different endpoints, but I can't seem to get around the Email required error. I disabled email as required in the Form Fields, but the processor must be requiring the email. So we have to provide the email.

[Renaissance]

@cartpauj 

The customer object is a direct property of the TransactionRequestType.  Try that and it should work.

@Renaissance 

We're trying to create a subscription with ARB when we get the error.

[Renaissance]

@cartpauj

I do not use ARB and was thinking that subscription was under a transaction request. I am not sure about your endpoint. I would have to look it up. I would say if you’re getting a response you are fine. I’m leaving breakfast now and will be busy all day, but I’ll look at your code again tomorrow morning or maybe later tonight. You should be able to pass the customer.

[kabutotx]

The error message has "cusotmer" where your code says "customer"?

customer is a child of subscription.

[Renaissance]

@kabutotx

Good catch.

[levinho]

Sometimes simple spelling mistakes can generate this kind of errors. Recently this literally happened with me and It took more than 2 hours to solve that problem.

[cartpauj]

I had to type the error manually as it was given to me in a screenshot. I made a typo there. The code is correctly using "customer" and the error message is correctly reflecting "customer" as well. Just a typo in the OP is all. Screenshot: http://cspf.co/fb4c81da8add

[Renaissance]

@cartpauj 

Where are you creating the customer object in this request?
