I have added one Custom attribute custom_attribute to quote & order table I am sending a response to my controller I want to save the response in my custom_attribute to sales_flat_quote & sales_flat_order table
can someone please help me how to achieve this

 $response = $this->getRequest()->getParam('data'); // i am getting response here in my controller 

 $quoteModelInstance = Mage::getSingleton('checkout/session')->getQuote();
 $customerModelInstance = Mage::getSingleton('customer/session');

 $order = Mage::getModel('sales/order');
 $order->setQuote($quoteModelInstance);
 $order->setCustomAttribute($response);
 try 
 $order->save();

 catch (Exception $e) 

 Mage::logException($e);
 

Here I am showing you how to save the values in the sales_flat_order table using checkout_submit_all_after event and observer concept.

Step-1: From your custom controller set the value into session as shown below

/app/code/local/Namespace/ModuleName/controllers/IndexController.php

public function customAction()

 $productPayDetails=$this->getRequest()->getPost();//get post values
 //write your code here
 .
 .


 $myValue = 2;
 Mage::getSingleton("checkout/cart")->getQuote()->setCustomAttribute($myValue)->save();

 (or) 

 Mage::getSingleton("checkout/session")->getQuote()->setCustomAttribute($myValue)->save();
 .
 .
 $testValue = 10; //Ex: Your attribute value
 Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->setCustomerPaymentTotal($testValue);
 Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->setCustomerPendingTotal($testValue);

Step 2: Now Configure an event in config.xml from your custom module

/app/code/local/Namespace/ModuleName/et/config.xml

 <frontend>
 <events>
 <checkout_submit_all_after>
 <observers>
 <checkout_submit_all_after>
 <class>intermediatepage/observer</class>
 <method>checkout_submit_all_after</method>
 </checkout_submit_all_after>
 </observers>
 </checkout_submit_all_after>
 </events>
</frontend>

Note: Here i am taking an example with intermediatepage class name

Step 3: Now Create a column in the sales_flat_order for example as shown in the
screenshot http://prntscr.com/fxxqgt

Step 4: create an observer file

/app/code/local/Namespace/ModuleName/Model/Observer.php

<?php

class Namespace_ModuleName_Model_Observer 

 public function checkout_submit_all_after(Varien_Event_Observer $observer)
 
 $order = $observer->getEvent()->getOrder();
 $pendingtotal=Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->getCustomerPendingTotal();
 $paymenttotal=Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->getCustomerPaymentTotal();
 $order->setOrderPendingPayment($pendingtotal);
 $order->setOrderPaymentNow($paymenttotal);
 $order->save();

 //unset the session values
 Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->getCustomerPendingTotal('');
 Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->getCustomerPendingTotal('');

 

Step 5: after done the changes in xml please remove cache and session and please try this in default magento from your custom module in locally.

I found another very easy solution for this please follow the steps below:

Step 1:
in your controller action please save the custom attribute value as shown below

Note:- You should create a column for saving the value in sales_flat_quote table
Ex: custom_attribute is the name of the column i have created

public function customAction()

 $productPayDetails=$this->getRequest()->getPost();//get post values

 $myValue = 2; 

 Mage::getSingleton("checkout/cart")->getQuote()->setCustomAttribute($myValue)->save();

 (or)

 Mage::getSingleton("checkout/session")->getQuote()->setCustomAttribute($myValue)->save();

Step 2: Create a column in the name of custom_attribute in sales_flat_order table

Step 3: now keep the below code in between global tag from config.xml from your custom module

<global> 
<fieldsets>
 <sales_convert_quote>
 <custom_attribute>
 <to_order>*</to_order>
 </custom_attribute>
 </sales_convert_quote>
 <sales_convert_order>
 <custom_attribute>
 <to_quote>*</to_quote>
 </custom_attribute> 
 </sales_convert_order>
 </fieldsets>
 </global>

clear cache and session and create an order and check the database.
