Merlin's Purchase Order Module

**slabadoo** · 3 Apr 2007, 10:15 PM

Having a slight problem with the Purchase Module. Found one post that showed a fix but it was for an earlier version. The confirmation email and the email that goes to the admin are missing the Purchase Order information i.e.
Account Name:

Account Number:

Purchase Order No:

any ideas?

I experience the same problem... Looks like Dr Byte's suggestion may be the issue here.

I'll check that line in the relevant Purchase Order files too.

Well, it looked promising but the code that is referenced in his bug fix is not in the orders.php file. Part of it is but it is different that mine

When i installed his PO MOD, orders.php was one of the files that was required be updated, so I used his orders.php in place of the original. at least that is what the directions said to do. I am using 1.3.7 and here is the line of code in my orders.php that is refererenced in the link that was provided above:

Code:

    $html_msg['PAYMENT_METHOD_FOOTER'] = (is_object($GLOBALS[$_SESSION['payment']]) ? $GLOBALS[$payment_class]->email_footer : '');

And the code on the link above which I thought would be the fix is:

Code:

$html_msg['PAYMENT_METHOD_FOOTER'] = (is_object($GLOBALS[$_SESSION['payment']]) && $GLOBALS[$payment_class]->email_footer != '') ? nl2br($GLOBALS[$payment_class]->email_footer) : $this->info['cc_type'];

Turns out, the two pieces of code are a little more different that I thought they would be. what do you recomend I do?

Thanks,

<Heart Attackkk> Going live with this site in a few days. Client needs the PO MOD. Any thoughts on a way around my delima? Seems the only thing that isn't working correctly is the email is not showing the PO info.

Mommy????

There's a purchase order mod in the Super Orders contribution. Not sure how different it is in functionality.

**slabadoo** · 5 Apr 2007, 02:52 PM

Yep, I am in the process of installing it right now. I will post my outcome. Pray for me...

Wel, the Purchase Order in super orders was not what I was looking for.

text form fields to simply type in the PO info like the way Merlin did it. Hmm? ANy other ideas ona way to get it po to work with a user filled form filed at the payment step?

Thanks,

From what I can see, the only thing the Mod is not doing for me is providing the PO info in the emails sent to the customer and admin. Do you know if there would be a way to rig it to send the info along. It does show in the customer order info in admin?

I understand you are probably tied to 100's of other questions that are looking for solutions. No sweat if you can't get to it. I did however try to use the super orders MOD but The solution you offered by having the Form Filed in the apyment area was definatly the way I need to go. No recieving PO Faxes for me. Anyway, any help appreciated and thanks for listening.
