So,

I want to install a network printer now..
But doesn't work again.

The printer itself isn't installed on the server.
Which I think isn't necessarily because FA contacts the printer directly.

So the following info I used:

Name: HP
Description: hp color 2840
IP 192.168.0.9 (the printer IP)
port: 515
Que: raw,auto,text,"empty" none seems to work.
Time-out: 60

What am I doing wrong?
(I check that LPD is turned on on the printer itself, and when adding the printer in ubuntu as LPD printer using the IP and raw for que, then i can print)

i'm using ubuntu.
I now have tried to install a cupsPDF on the server,
and I add a localhost printer on my workstation.

I have used port 631 (cups port) as well as 515 port.
I used PDF (name of my printer) as que line also tried the printer uri: cups-pdf:/
All of the possible combinations not working.
but i keep working on it.

lpr command works, so far i don't get an error in my terminal.
further lpr just sits there.

I have now also installed a cupsPDF printer on my FA server.
And I use this info in FA on my client station:

printername:printer
ip: localhost
port: 631
que: printer/PDF (so it is described in CUPS)

Update:
I have now installed a real printer on my client.
I also shared the printer and installed it on the server.
I can print on both machine's until i try FA.

In FA i use the following settings:

Naam printer:     Canon
Beschrijving printer:     Pixma 3000
Naam of IP-adres van host:  192.168.1.177(ip adres of client whereto printer is connected)
Poort:     631
Afdrukwachtrij:     /printers/C/ (c is the name of the printer)
Time-out:     60


FA says it prints, but still nothing.

ps. I also found the printerque field a bit to short, my standard printer name was like printers/canon-pixma-3000- and that didn't fit since the field can max contain 20 char.

Joe,

i have like 3 or 4 more of those non translated errors so far.

They are all errors in a red square or system messages in a green square like:

On the create)_recurrent_invoices.php page:
1 recurrent invoice(s) created #23 - #23 (this is in green
TCPDF error: missing or incorrect image file ../......................(this is in red)

On the sales_deliveries_view.php page:
TCPDF error: missing or incorrect image file ../......................(this is in red)

On the customer_delivery.php page:
Selected quantity cannot be less than quantity invoiced nor more than quantity not dispatched on sales order. (in red)

on the credit_note_entry.php page:
TCPDF error: missing or incorrect image file ../......................(this is in red)


Maybe there is more, but this is what i found so far.
Should those lines be in English or can we translate them too?
(I don't want to hard code them to Dutch, because if we switch to English the lines will stay Dutch.

Indeed, you should always restart your server after making any changes to languages. If you don't do this, it will result in strange translations.

(A screen is 100% translated but after reload or switching screens it's back to english, and suddenly everything is Dutch again etc.)

But I have found myself some other translation issues:

FA is totally in dutch for me, but the "errors/system messages" are still english.

For example in the next screen:
Sales --> Create and Print Recurrent Invoices

FA gives me an warning that "no recurrent invoices are due", and this line is still in english. Is there any way to get this translated trough the PO file?

I found this in the code, maybe you can tell me if it should be translated, or this is hard-coded. (and if you want it in dutch you should change it in the code)

File:create_recurrent_invoices.php
Line:161

display_note(("No recurrent invoices are due."), 1, 0);

If you wish to use cups server you should enable lpd sevice in it. See cups documentation how to set it.

Janusz

I found out that if you want to enable the lpd service, you should navigate to your etc file and open the inetd.conf file which is found there.

In this (possible empty) file add the follwing lines:

printer stream tcp nowait lp /usr/lib/cups/daemon/cups-lpd cups-lpd \
        -o document-format=application/octet-stream


Now LPD should be enabled, but I can't get it to work yet.

When I view config.php I see:

    $security_headings = array(
            _("Inquiries"),
            _("Accountant"),
            _("System Administrator"),
    );

    $security_groups = array(
            array(1,2),
            array(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,16),
            array(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,20),
    );

Why does the accountant have level 16 access, but is level 15 missing?
Does this mean, he can't access level 15 pages, or do you always have the access on the lower pages (like if you have only access to 16, you also have access to 1 till 15?)

The first piece of text is a little help to others, my actual question is just below the ******** line

I was going to test, and see if the printing profiles works fine.
To do this, I added 3 different CUPS printers (which print to a directory PDF under your home folder).
If you are trying something like it, keep in mind you have to manually create the PDF folder (in capitals) under your home folder. If it's not there, it just doesn't work.

Now I was going to see if I can understand the different settings in FA which can be granted to a printer.

I tried some settings and I was about to findout what works and what doesn't.

*******************************************************************
The last thing I / we need to find out are the different printer settings.
When you add a printer you can add the following paramters:

Printer Name:     (this is obvious the printer name)
Printer Description:     (this is a random discription?)
Host name or IP:     (for a networkprinter it's IP adres, but where do i find host names?)
Port:     (the port of the printer)
Printer Queue:     (the name of the que? but where do i find this)
Timeout:     (a timeoutsetting in seconds? what should do as a good default, 30?)

We have found a "wrong tooltip", it's found in the following location:

Goto Purchase,
Outstanding purchase order
now receive this order by clicking the icon on the totally right of the rule
If you now hover over the button: Process receive items, you wel get the next tooltip:
"Clear all GL entry fields"

I Think that is not correct?

I think you didn't understand what i meant.
I don't see how it could be a feature that is you want to print page 21 till 19, you get an empty PDF.

Recurrent Invoices

If you select a monthly value, it will be sent on a monthly base and if you select a days value it will be due on that day in the month.

I'm figuring out the recurrent invoices, with its options etc.
So I tried to put month on 1 and day on 27 (today it's the 26th) and I was expecting that no invoice ready to print showed up till tomorrow.
But it does show up immediately and doesn't wait till tomorrow as i expected...

When I want to (re)print old invoices I go to

sales --> Customer & Sales reports --> Customer --> print invoices.

After selecting this, I select the invoices I want to print.

For exanoke 19 till 21.

When selecting 19 to 21 all goes fine, but when I fill it in reverse, so select first 21 and then 19, I get one empty PDF docment.

It looks the numbers you select have to be asscending, but there is no check on it

After creating a backup using frontaccount, everything seems fine if you view the file. But if you download the file the file is abruptly truncated.

The file is fine till the wo_issues table, here it's truncated. (approximately rule 1860)

Alright, clear.
Can you tell me in which screen in FA those names are found?

Maybe you guys can try to change it in this way, that those names are replaced to the PO file. In this way they are translated in other languages, and it doesn't require any database / SQL editing.

Work Order Required By after: The work order will be set as required by this day. Can be overridden when creating.

If i put this value on 5, I expect that when I create a new workorder it should give as date, today + 5 days.

No matter what I do, the new work order entry screen only shows me todays date.
I have also checked it on your FA demo but the same issue.

Is my expectation wrong, or is it something else?

And i'also trying to find out the working of another option:

When we fill in a product code, the system retrieves the product name, but fails to retrieve the price.

We have tried this on 3 different systems, and all fail.

When we go to the FA website and try the online demo, everything works normal.

One thing which we found quite unusual is that after entering a product code on the website, you have to press enter (keyboard enter) to retrieve the name and price.

On all 3 of our own systems we fill in the product code and the systems retrieves the name without the price....
Also after pressing enter no price.

What could be wrong?

I see, my idea was to use UTF8 because that is the standard on ubuntu...
This way we don't have to change anything on the servers of our future clients...

To use ISO-8859-1 we do have to change some settings.

But can you use any PO file UTF8?
I mean, what decides wheter a PO file is UTF or ISO?

I'm using an ubuntu desktop system as LAMP server.
On this Machine Frontaccount is running.

To make my Dutch language work I had to change the default language to ISO-8859-1. (It was UTF8)

Now I was wondering, is it also possible to use a ISO language as an UTF8 Language? I mean, what decides whetere a PO and MO file are ISO or UTF8?

If I can convert my ISO PO to UTF8 PO, i can place it on any system without the hassle of changeing the standard locale....

So what decides whether a PO file is ISO or UTF8?

My boss told me that we will give our language file to the community.
Unfortunately i can't tell you yet when we will upload it, but on time we will.

We outsourced the translation to a professional agency which is used to translate accountancy software, so that the terms used for translation are the right ones.
