Topic: Sales Quotation/Order/Invoice leading to blank page

Hi,

Have done a new install recently and tried to create a sales transaction. When click on sales invoice, quotation etc leads to a blank white page.

I have deactivated all extensions I had installed and also reverted back to the default theme, but still getting the same errors.

Am using FrontAccounting 2.3.24.

Any ideas how to investigate this / fix it?

any help much appreciated.

Update:

Looking through the error log file, I am getting this error only when click on any of the: Sales Quotation, Direct INvoice etc.

Re: Sales Quotation/Order/Invoice leading to blank page

File: sales/includes/db/customers_db.inc
Function: get_customer_details()
The mandatory parameter must be a valid $customer_id.
If invalid, it causes an error in line the sql construction portion on line 100:

             AND ".TB_PREF."debtors_master.debtor_no = ".db_escape($customer_id)." ";

You tried to create a quotation without having created atleast 1 customer.

@seend: Try to use the FA 2.3.24+ snapshot and see if the error persists. It might also be that you are using a newer version of PHP that uses the STRICT option which may be disabled in PHP 5.6 but is compiled hardcoded in PHP 5.7 onwards.

@joe: An error should be output when no customer exists if a Document Form depends on it. I thought it was so now.

Re: Sales Quotation/Order/Invoice leading to blank page

@apmuthu
Yes the error should be enabled. If there are no customers and/or branches in the system, there should be an error reported before you can proceed. Will have a look.
@seend
In the meantime, please set the $go_debug variable first in the file config.php to 1 or 2, to trap any errors.
