Admin New Order [Support Thread]

Debbie - it only adds what's in the data base, unless there is a trick I'm not aware of... You'd need to add it to the data base first before adding to an order.

Ok well does it have to be an active product/attribute to appear? Can disabled products/attributes be listed?

Because these are custom products they aren't standard.

@dharrison: All this module does is create a new empty order. This module does not have anything to do with adding products to an order.

You may receive a faster answer by asking questions regarding editting an order in the Edit Orders support thread (the default page / module shown after the empty order is created). I believe you can add disabled products (not sure on attributes), but the best way to find out what can be done without modification of Edit Orders would be to try out your scenario in a "test" store.

Thanks @lhungil

The manager defintiely wants to be able to add orders to the system, but also customised items. I shall have a read and a play.

I have installed the New Orders it works ok with disabled products and attributes

Hope this helps.

Hi lhungil,

I wonder if you can help me. I've recently installed Edit_Orders_4.1.4, Admin_New_Order_1.4 and Super_Orders_4.0.9 and most features are working well. I just have one problem that I'm trying to sort out.

Our main use for Edit_Orders, Admin_New_Order and Super_Orders is to make our order and payment management easier. We have many regular customers that will phone in their order, have us deliver the order and make the payment afterwards. We use Admin_New_Order to log the orders on our website easily.

The problem that I have is that I'm trying to use Super_Orders to track the payments for these orders, but to do that it requires me to select a payment method (namely "Purchase Orders") for the order for the payments to show up in my "Awaiting Payment" Report. There is currently no way to select a payment method when placing an order through Admin_New_Order as far as I'm aware.

Is there any way around this? (without placing the order through the front end) or am I just missing something? Otherwise, is there an easy way to fix this, or is there any chance that this could be added to a future update?

Any help with this issue will be much appreciated. Thanks :)

Thank you

Hi there, new Zenner here!

I am running Zencart 1.5.0 with Edit Orders 4.1.4. All working well.

I am having difficulty loading Admin New Order, I receive the message stating I have to install a compatible version of Edit Orders first! I already do!

Any help appreciated

[MR4TC]

Is there a way I can 'tell' the installer for Admin New Order that Edit Orders is installed?

[lhungil]

In the Zen Cart administrative interface, what version is shown as installed when you go to "Configuration" -> "Edit Orders"?

If it does not list a version, or the version listed does not match the version of Edit Orders you believe is installed... I would suspect something is not right with your installation of Edit Orders (or the installation is incomplete). I would suggest downloading a clean copy of Edit Orders, applying any needed patches from the Edit Orders support thread, and re-installing Edit Orders.

It would also be a good idea to check your "cache" and "logs" folder for any debug files. If running Zen Cart > 1.5.1, be aware you will need to manually merge the required changes to core files (do not blindly overwrite these files).
