Pros of Unofficial APIs
* You bypass Meta’s per-message pricing entirely. Whether you are sending a transactional receipt or a promotional blast, there are zero official WhatsApp fees.
* No Approvals or Templates: You do not need to submit message templates to Meta for approval. You can send any content, at any time, without waiting for the official green light.
* No 24-Hour Service Window: Unlike the official API, which restricts free-form replies to a 24-hour window after a customer messages you, unofficial APIs allow you to initiate or reply to conversations whenever you want.
* Simultaneous Mobile App Use: Because these tools typically work by mimicking a "Linked Device" (WhatsApp Web), you can keep your primary phone number active on your physical smartphone while still automating messages through the API.
* Access to Native Features: Unofficial APIs often support features that the official Cloud API restricts, such as creating and managing WhatsApp Groups, updating Statuses, and interacting with Communities.
* Instant Setup: There is no lengthy Meta Business verification process. You can generate a QR code, scan it, and start testing your API integration in minutes.

Cons of Unofficial APIs
* High Risk of Permanent Bans: This is the biggest drawback. Unofficial APIs strictly violate Meta’s Terms of Service. If WhatsApp's automated systems detect bot-like behavior, non-human typing speeds, or spam patterns, your phone number can be permanently banned without warning.
* Zero Official Support: If your number gets banned or a message fails to deliver, you have no recourse or customer support from Meta.
* No Official "Green Tick": You cannot apply for the verified Official Business Account badge (the green checkmark), which can lower trust for customers interacting with your brand.

Install it in the latest version of FA.

1. Create Invoice.
2. Add Chat Id in the customer setup. It can be number with country code without + Or the Customers Group Id.
3. Open Customer INquiry page
4. Send WhatsApp.
5. It will check for company email (if not defined) for creating session
6. It will ask for scanning like whatsapp web
7. Now you can send invoice, payments, delivery notes

Let me know your feedback.

ON line 69 there is a function call

add_bank_transaction($entry->trans_type, $bank_account, $entry, $entry->tran_date, // FA built-in function
            false, false, false, $entry->reference, $entry->memo_, false);

But there is no bulit in function with this name.

However, the import does not work. There is no menu for Bank statement import. There is only "General Journal Processing", "Deposit Processing", "Payment Processing", "Sales Order Processing" and "Direct Invoice Processing". When I use "General Journal Processing", I get a quick view of the "green process bar" but then nothing has happened afterwards.

Does anybody have experience in importing CSVs with Bank Statements? How to best do that?

ChatGPT has got it wrong.

I'm experiencing an issue where, despite assigning users to roles or custom roles with specific page access restrictions, all users can still view all modules and pages without any access limitations. Users are able to access any page without encountering restrictions as intended.

I'm seeking expert assistance to help resolve this issue.

Additional details:

- Multiple companies have been created, and a few extensions are installed.
- FA Version: 2.4.1
- PHP Version: 8.1.30 (Requirement: >=5.0.0)
- using https/ SSL
Thank you for your support.

Treat the crypto like an inventory item (physical asset) and then import transactions much like 'Inventory Adjustments'
The GL transactions would track the value if each individual inventory item

It is much like knowing how much each item is as you sell it, as opposed to averaging the cost across all the inventory on hand
(Can FA do this now? It is could be used on normal inventory items)

Some transactions would appear as Income and others would be converting between crypto/FIAT (ie USD, etc)

I am not sure how these actions are handled with the GL accounts

I need some education on this.

Would the Import Transactions be a good place or should I take break off and make a new module?

Or a WordPress plugin that talks to FA

I wanted to see what is around before I consider making one...
