This depends on what you want to track!

Do you want to track "carts" or orders that don't lead to payments, or only payents?

This is really up to you

Thank you for answering so fast. I don't understand well the differences between those options. Its my first ecommerce. My question is do I need to create any object in the DB when the user clicks "go to checkout" aside the payment intent before confirming the payment? The checkout is a multi-step process where the user writes its shipping address and its card data (using paymentElement) and also can change directly the number of products and finally, when the user confirms, the server creates an order.

Hi there 👋 jumping in as my teammate needed to step away.

To clarify, when you reference "the DB", are you referring to your database or the Stripe dashboard?

Hi, my database

[ivory hearth]

Thank you for that clarification, but I believe that means we won't have a ton of insight to share there. We're not sure what information your process needs at which stages for it to complete as you're expecting.

When you run through a test flow of what you have so far, are there clear gaps in the flow?

[cinder gull]

Until now I was using the service Ecommerce.js and I only needed create a token at the begining of the checkout and then provide this one everytime I changed something. I droped that service and I am trying it all manually.

Is there something that you flow is missing currently that I can try to point you to?

[cinder gull]

I dont know how to explain it. Not gonna bother you more. Btw, thanks for your help.
