    Default Re: Use Of Notifiers - How To

    I've nearly got that XML generation integrated, but I'm running into one little problem.

    I can write a properly formatted XML file for a particular order, and even write it to a file on my server. How do I then get that file down to the local system which is where Dazzle apparently checks for XML files?

    What I am trying to do is create an automated system, where the admin will just click a button on the order page and an Endicia label will print.

    Any ideas?

    Set up an FTP server on your server and use something like NetworkAutomation's Automate, or even a regular FTP clients (not all of them does the job, but some do have scheduling capabilities) to schedule download every .xml files to Dazzle folder.

    I'm using Automate 6.2, which is a great programming tool that costs little less than $1,000 to do lots of other things, too, in addition to a simple scheduled downloading task I mentioned above.

    But all you need is schedule download using a regular FTP client.

    Or compose a batch file that would authenticate, get all files from a specific location, delete from the original location, and schedule it using the windows' Schedule Task found under Control Panel.

    BTW, there is a mod that would generate a packing slip and xml file for Dazzle by me found here: http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...roducts_id=756

    It's quite incomplete, but you can probably reference it to complete yours.
