Magento: How to save data to order_payment and quote_payment

Question

I\'m trying to have a custom credit card payment attribute save to two different tables but I\'m not sure how to do this.

The normal credit card information saves to two

Did you configure Magento to convert the new attribute from quote to order? If you check the config.xml from the Mage_Sales module and search for sales_convert_quote_payment. You see something as follows:

       
            *
            *
            *
            *
            *
            *
            *
            *
            *
            *

            *
            *

            *
            *
            *
        

Magento uses these fieldsets to transport data from entity to entity. In this case from the quote_payment to the order_payment.

Since all config XML is merged into one big heap of XML, you can add additional nodes from your own modules config.xml. Something like:

    
        
            *
        
    

Hope this helps you get underway.
