@Joe Thanks, understood, will open forum topic first in future.
My question was more along the lines of: "is sf fork + merge request a correct way to send code for consideration or you prefer patch file posted in forum?"

I guess this forum is the best place to discuss improvements, but it is better if there are more users interesting in the improvements before implementing.

@Joe I have submitted a merge request for exactly that functionality back in March, since I was using it already for a few years, but it was not present in 2.4.6 master
Git Merge Request #1: Added option to send Customer Receipt by e-mail (open)
https://sourceforge.net/p/frontaccounting/git/merge-requests/1/

Is there a better (preferred?) method of contributing to FrontAccounting development?
Pardon, if my question is obvious - new to Git and distributed open source development.

Hello,

The reason for that this has no email menu is that you could write something at the bottom of the Receipt.

However, it should be up to you if you want to do this or not. So this has been fixed and committed to stable repo.

@apmuthu,
@joe,

This is an old thread, but it hasn't been answered: All the other nine document print reports have an email to option; but Print Customer Receipt rep112.php does not? Is there a reason for this? Or is it an omission?

The following code works but needs to be checked:-

Is it possible to add feature to be able to email the receipt to the customer. should use the same email under the branch as that for invoicing.
