Help understanding the Paypal API workflow
I have developed a freelancing website, where client can pay through paypal
but I am confused how to check client has paid for which job?
System is redirecting user to paypal interface where he pays and returns back, now to store payment transaction information I have implemented IPN
but How would i know client has paid for which job
for eg If I have following database schema for transaction
id, user_id, job_id, trans_id
How would I get job_id while saving transaction id?
is there any concept of custom fields?

Anand TamariyaYou don't need a custom field. Map the job_id to corresponding order_id field from paypal.

Manish Goyalno anand, actually I have already found the solution
There is a custom parameter that you can pass to paypal while user checkout through paypal, On successful, payment, paypal will pass those custom parameters value through IPN notification
