Tom
How can I install and test your solution?
It sounds quite comprehensive.
What is the oscommerce contribution called?
Have you submitted the FA module to Joe or Janusz?
If not I encourage you to do so, since both projects are GPL
Tom
No, see the readme.txt for BUY
tom
Try Sales->Customer Transactions
It defaults to ALL CUSTOMERS
Maybe instead of putting All Customers at the Top of the list we could put it at the Bottom,
this was after someone enters a search we will either default to the first entry or ALL if no matches we found
Does it make sense now?
tom
The date combo pups up one month, many other websites popup with 3 months.
Often it is the next, current and previous months.
In our case it may be best to make it default to current, previous and next previous months.
(Today it would popup Aug, July, June)
I have no idea how to do it, but if someone likes the idea I hope they will run with it
Tom
It looks like you are missing a column:
ITEM;ITEM_CODE;STOCK_ID;Description;Category;units;dummy;MB_FLAG;Currency;Price;
Where Item_Code = STOCK_ID of the item.
You have the STOCK_ID missing
I think for the most part ITEM_CODE == STOCK_ID, these are used in the 'item_codes' table
Also line 52 of import_items.php has a problem it should be:
function get_dimension_by_name($name) {
if ($name == '') return 0;
it was
if ($name = '') return 0;
If you are using dimensions, it seems that the 'dummy' field before MB_FLAG is where you can put a dimension
Let me know if this fixes you up

When a delivery note is created other deliveries are used to see what has already been delivered.
But it seems to use the same shipping charge from the original sales order.
So if you had a SO for $500 of product and $50 of shipping ($550 total) and make 2 deliveries you can end up with $600 of invoices
if you are not careful.
Often I will just apply the shipping to the first delivery and have additional deliveries list $0 shipping.
Some countries customs agents do not like this.
Is it possible for the Delivery Note creation form to subtract the shipping from earlier deliveries before it auto fills in the shipping cost?
(not negative, of course)
tom
ps. I tried making an example of this in the demo site, but I could not create a SO with a non-zero shipping charge.
(well I could create it, but the shipping cost was not saved for some reason)
I am not sure if this is a problem with my web browser or something that can be fixed.
When I type a SPACE on the Customer Selector to enter a search of the customer list it always continues to select "All Customers"
even if the text I entered was unique enough to get a hit on a single customer.
Is there a way it could only show "All Customers" if there was more than one match?
tom
Yes I will look at it
I set it to 30 :
/* Save Report selections (a value > 0 means days to save. 0 = no save) */
$save_report_selections = 30;
but the pull down selections stay at the defaults...

I tried a different report and it did the same thing
tom
I am not sure how to fix those errors.
The FORCE UPGRADE may not be the best thing to do.
Restore you db from the backup prior to the upgrade (Where it says Partial 1/4) and see if you still have a "0_company" table
I had to drop that table first.
Drop the table, run backup again and then try the upgrade.
If you don't have a company table then read this thread for other suggestions
Tom
If you are running 2.3.5 you should be able to go to Setup->Install/Activate Extensions and see "Inventory Items CSV Import"
Once you install it, change the pull-down from "Available" to your site and make sure it is enabled.
Then go to Setup->Access Setup, Select your role (System Administrator) and click the check boxes for "Import CSV Items"
at the end of the list.
That will give you an Import option under the "Items and Inventory" tab, Maintenance sub tab on the right.
See the README.TXT in the modules/import_items/ directory
tom
How does it fail?
When you go to Setup->Software Upgrade what do you see?
Under
Well I expanded the report to be able to use 'material_cost' or 'actual_cost'
I know actual_cost is unused, so why not?
then I just need to make a function to recompute actual_cost for all items based upon purchase pricing
and optionally set material_cost at the same time.
thoughts?
Well, after looking around it looks like the Sales Reports -> Price Listing report is pretty close to what I need.
I like the GP% but would like to add an optional cost column.
But the Gross Profit is based upon the Material Cost (running average)
If I have some large cost changes (which I have, one Rare Earth Material I rely upon has increased 5x-6x in the last year)
I would like to reset the average material_cost (stock_master) to actual cost.
I am thinking of a simple module that clears all material_cost and recomputes material_cost based on foriegn item_codes
and manufacturing BOM's
I could then re-run the Price Listing and check the GP to see what prices need to be adjusted.
The nice part is the report can be loaded in excel if needed...
Now... (finally a question)
Will updating the material cost to actual cost have any serious negative impact from an accounting point of view?
(like violate any Accounting 101 concepts)
or is it maybe just a Good Idea?
tom
ps. I also notice that last_cost is updated, but all of my actual_cost fields are 0, is that normal? Is actual_cost no longer used?
pps. actual_cost is only referenced in One place... read only... includes/ui/items_cart.inc the constructor for class line_item
I have seen that, but it still begs the question:
Is it safe to assume you verify the contributed extensions have unique numbers before posting them on the website?
If I create a new extension from an existing one and forget to change the number, we could have two with the same number.
tom
How can developers request values for modules they create?
Maybe set a range for local use and any others need to be allocated by the core development team?
tom
I created a new db, copied the existing db into it (2.2)
installed the files in a fa23 directory and copied/updated config_db.php (change database name)
I think that was about it.
Login go to Setup->Software Upgrade
etc
I just upgraded from 2.2.10 to 2.3.5 and had no problems.
But as always - BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP!
I also installed into a new directory and new database, mostly so I can run both side by side... just in case
tom
So maybe they could all be the same value?
Seems odd to me...
'define ('SS_IMPORTCUSTOMERS', 105<<8);'
I think a more important question is: Does the 105 have to be unique across all add-on modules?
Are we granted security permissions based upon that bit mask?
If two modules have the same SS_ value won't they be controlled together in the security settings?
Tom
I have not looked at osCommerce 3 yet and totally agree.
But the good news is that since I only rely on the database for information it may no be a hard change.
I'd just need to update the SQL entries, since after all it is still just a mysql database (I HOPE)
But, having just upgraded to 2.3.1, moving to 3.0 is not really on my priority list.
Tom

TEP 2.1, osc 2.2 core developer
I guess it will be a small module... or maybe a Report...
Yeah maybe... I better upgrade to 2.3 first
