ParticipantEnter your default message in the Signature field in the biller record.

ParticipantLet’s start with the locale. Currently there is no en_IN locale defined. But you can remedy that quite simply. In the lang directory, make an “en_IN” directory. Then copy into it the info.xml and lang.php file from whichever language directory most closely matches what you want. If that is the en_US directory, then in the copied lang.php file, delete the lines at the end following the $LANG[‘zip’]… line (the ones in the if statement for setting the user password help format).
Modify the information in the copied, info.xml file.
At this point you now have an “en_IN” locale set up. Of course the words in the lang.php file have not been translated. You can do that as necessary. Once you have your lang.php file set up, you can send me copies of both the xml and php file via an attached zip file containing them, via this forum. I’ll add them to the standard application for future users, etc.
With these files set up, there are two places where you set en_IN to use it in field formatting and language selection. First is in the config/custom.config.ini file “localLocale” setting. The next is in the Settings/Inv Prefs tabs records, set both the Language and Locale fields to en_IN.
As for the date. In the screens that display the date, the format is as it comes from the database. “yyyy-mm-dd” I believe. This is standard and yields a natural sorting order for the field if you order the management tables by it.
For the invoice templates, you get whatever they display. You can modify them and make your own invoice formatting for dates and other information however you please; but it isn’t necessarily controlled by the locale settings.
Hope this helps.

ParticipantI just uploaded a version 2020.3.03 that contains changes to address this issue. The change supports multiple, semi-colon separated email addresses in any of the email address fields. Let me know if this works for you.

ParticipantThere is no restriction on having multiple preferences with different language and currency codes. The one thing that can cause a problem is if the currency sign is input as a character rather than an html code for the character. The US dollar sign is an exception. If you view the help on the Invoice Preferences Currency sign field, it explains this. I’ve include screen shots of test the I performed testing this.

ParticipantIf the authentication option in the config file is set to false, the user is not relevant. Since there is no log in, there is no logout. When authentication is enabled, the user is pertinent. Typically, if a user already exists, the same password should work. The rules for what a new password must conform to does not apply to existing passwords. What I believe the issue would be, is that there has been a change in the algorithm used to hash the password has changed. The authentication logic however takes this into account. If the password fails authentication using the new algorithm, it attempts authentication using the old algorithm. If that succeeds, it updates the password on file using the new hash for all future login attempts. In practice, I found that I would have to login a second time to have the newly encrypted password work. If this process didn’t work for you, I’m at a loss as to why. I’m glad however that you were able to get it working.

ParticipantThese are the first three lines of the function. The code would go in after them.
$printIfEmpty = !empty($params['printIfEmpty']) && $params['printIfEmpty'] == true; $class1 = empty($params['class1']) ? '' : Util::htmlSafe($params['class1']); $class2 = empty($params['class2']) ? '' : Util::htmlSafe($params['class2']);
RRowley
ParticipantI believe you need to start adding debug statements to the function. Try this. In the
include/smarty_plugins/function.print_if_not_empty.php
file add the following code after the setting of the$class2
variable:if ($params['label'] == "Ph.") { $str = "smarty_function_print_if_not_empty(): Ph is "; $str .= empty($params['field']) ? "empty. " : "not empty. "; $str .= "printIfEmpty is "; $str .= $printIfEmpty ? "true." : "false."; var_dump($str); }
When you print the template, you will get a message at the top of the print info screen that will tell you if it sees the phone field as empty and if it is setting the print if empty option for some reason. A not empty phone field or a true setting on the print if empty variable are the only ways that the logic will print something.
Hope this helps.

ParticipantIt works in all my testing. Make sure you don’t have a local copy of the function in your invoice plugins directory. I removed them all from the standard version and have worked with this in testing the logic in the various templates and it works fine. I’m in the middle of making some significant changes to SI which includes enhancements to these functions to using multiple labels values and such. So it will be a little while before I get those delivered.
RRowley
ParticipantI’ve gone through and removed all duplicate occurrences of the various smarty function so that the standard version in the library is used. There is no need to include a function in a invoice templates plugin directory unless you want to modify it for some reason.
I’ve updated internal comments in the not null and not empty functions to explain the difference. Basically and item can be not null but empty (blank, 0, etc. are empty values). It appears there is no use of the not empty function but I’ll keep it around for now anyway.

ParticipantThe
isset()
test for a field is to see if there is valid content to print. You can use theempty()
test on a field to determine if both the label and the field should be printed. For instance here is a test to determine if custom field 1 should be printed:<!-- Show the Invoice Custom Fields if valid --> {if !empty($customFieldLabels.invoice_cf1) && isset($invoice.custom_field1)} <tr> <td nowrap class="">{$customFieldLabels.invoice_cf1|htmlSafe}:</td> <td class="si_right" colspan="3">{$invoice.custom_field1|htmlSafe}</td> </tr> {/if}

ParticipantIt has been a while since I coded an extension. So this was a great refresher course. Download the attached zip file and extract it into the
extensions
directory. Then in SI, select the Settings tab and the Customize Settings menu option. Next select the Extensions button.This will display a list of extensions among which the new customerList name will appear. In the Actions column select the green Register icon. This will bring up the About to register: customerList screen. All you do here is select the Save button.
Note the new Toggle status icon in the Actions column. Note also that the light bulb in the Status column is grey. Click on the Toggle status icon and the light bulb will be yellow. This means the extension is enabled.
Now when you go to the Customer page, the phone number will be displayed in what was the department column. Note that this logic will prefer the mobile phone for the customer over the phone number if both set. If only one is set, that number will be displayed.
You can use the search field to search for a particular phone number.
Let me know host this works out.

ParticipantOK. Found the problem. The setting is correct but what shows on the manage screen is not correct. I just uploaded a fix for this. Update files and you should be good to go.
RRowley
ParticipantYes, that is what the extensions directory is for. It’s been awhile since I’ve created an extension. Basically your folder name is the name of the extension and you create files in directory paths within it that are used instead of the standard file. For class files in the Inc/Claz folder, there is a trick to only add the class code that is specific for your need so you don’t have to copy the entire class and thereby put general maintenance of all the class code on you. Otherwise, you might miss some needed changes that future updates provide.
Maybe if you can explain what you want to do, I can see what it takes to set it up.
RRowley
ParticipantYou would have to create an extension with logic to do this.
Currently users with a biller role are restricted to accessing things that are related to that biller. So the biller record and the invoices for that biller. Products are universal, not related to any biller, so they can only be modified by and administrator.
