Hi
I have come over here after supporting oscommerce since 2007 so was interested in the interface between these 2 systems.
I was most upset to see this extension did not work out of the box and found the option to give access to a user was not visible, just as described above.
After further investigation I have found the contents of hooks.php is incorrect. If you change it to
<?php
define ('SS_OSCORDERS', 106<<8);
class hooks_osc_orders extends hooks {
var $module_name = 'osCommerce Order Import';
/*
Install additonal menu options provided by module
*/
function install_options($app) {
global $path_to_root;
switch($app->id) {
case 'orders':
$app->add_rapp_function(2, _('osCommerce Import'),
$path_to_root.'/modules/osc_orders/osCommerce.php', 'SA_OSCORDERS');
}
}
function install_access()
{
$security_sections[SS_OSCORDERS] = _("osCommerce Order Import");
$security_areas['SA_OSCORDERS'] = array(SS_OSCORDERS|106, _("osCommerce Order Import"));
return array($security_areas, $security_sections);
}
}
?>
And hey-presto, you can now give access rights to users and they will be able to see the option on the Sales tab.
Incidentally why do you have to test for orders when the tab is called sales?
case 'orders':
Is it just a cunning ploy to make it difficult for new developers?
Unfortnately that is not all you need to do, in osCommerce.php replace all occurrences of
"$table_style2 w
with
TABLESTYLE2, "w
and
start_table($table_style);
with
start_table(TABLESTYLE);
On line 229 change table type to read
ENGINE=MyISAM
That should allow you to start up the application.
Select the configure option and enter your osc db credentials.
Now you can import your customers, check prices and update prices. Make sure you have backups of both DBs before you start playing!!!!
I suspect the order import will fail big time if the osc model/products numbers are not synchronised to the FA Item nos.
The check prices option will show what needs to be done.
I suspect the next stage is to update the stock in OSC from FA.
Anyway this should get you going.
Cheers
G
