Edit invoice with new product's names

[w0rmie]

Hello,

In my zen cart 1.5.5 shop, we've changed the products names and the store logo of course, so we need that our custommers retrieve their anterior invoices with the new product names instead of the old ones.

After changing the product names.. I've seen that the invoices still preserve the same product names, any ideas to force the update?


Thanks,

The details of an order are recorded and "set in stone" with the customer and product details at that time. Subsequent changes do not update the order, nor should they. It is important that the facts are recorded at that moment to avoid confusion later if changes are made to customer details or products.

Thank you for your help !

So is there any config to check up at the PHP level?

To check your php version, there is a link on the right top of your admin screen called version (in the black bar). If you press this, all kinds of useful info is presented, including your php version.

I think the OP might be asking how he can use PHP to display the updated product name. If this is desired, it's not a hard change. Line numbers per 1.5.5f.

Change admin/invoice.php line 167 from

           '        <td class="dataTableContent" valign="top">' . $order->products[$i]['name'];

to

           '        <td class="dataTableContent" valign="top">' . zen_get_products_name($order->products[$i]['id']);

Thank you folks especially swguy for his precious help !

I would just to know how to handle the "Model" row, because it doesn't take into consideration the new changes, and still shows the old "Model" data, so when i edit invoice.php the row result gives TestTest on all my invoices.


Any idea?

Thank you again !

[swguy]

Same idea as above. Instead of

$order->products[$i]['model']

use

zen_get_products_model($order->products[$i]['id'])

Hello,

Thank you so much for precious help Mr. swguy

I have an other 2 questions if i am not rude.

1- The Tax area shows 0% even my configured tax is 5%, so is there any edit to force the tax to return 5%?
2- The "Price with tax excluded" should return The (Price with tax included)/1.05, how this can be handled?


Kind Regards,

For #1, you might want to look at look at Edit Orders. I am not sure I understand #2.

I believe that item #2 relates to showing both the price with tax included and with it removed/excluded. Something that might have previously been possible with say the plugin Display Price with Vat/Tax and Ex Vat/Tax as found at this plugin download location: https://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=597
