Drop Shipping Purchase Orders Module for v1.3.8

[ikernbecauseicare]

Hi - I installed this module today and it looks super cool. I'm excited.

However, my store started over a year ago and we've been using processing for orders that are awaiting shipment. Those orders statuses have now been changed to delivered, but the problem is that the Send/Re-send POs screen is also listing those orders. So now I have 256 pages of orders to send?

anyone know how I can fix this? I've got Zen Cart 1.3.9f
Database Patch Level: 1.3.9d, and I just downloaded the module today.

Thanks!

Hi - me again - I noticed that there was a Purchase Orders Module v6 so I went and got that and got it installed. But each time I try to change a subcontractor or send POs, I get a white screen with an error message in another language. Can anyone help me? I have Zen 1.3.9f and PHP Version: 5.2.17.

sijeffs - Not without a huge time commitment. Sorry. Would require a total rewrite of the PDF section. Would be very time consuming. As for your logo on the PDF packing list, v6 supports that.

ksookma - Sure, just go through and change them all (Find and Replace). I think Open Office has some settings when you save a CSV, and one of them is the separator. Or, just do it manually like I said above. Either way, you want to edit or replace the three text attachments files in the email directory to do so with Purchase Orders.

xxhlp - Sorry. Dunno. I looked over the request and it seems ok to me unless I am missing something. Did you cut and paste it into the install DB Script in Zen Cart admin?

claw79 - Not really. You really need to follow every step in the manual.

chuckb - It's not in your admin folder. It should be in your root directory. The problem appears to be that your sites URL is not before the filename. The constant used is HTTP_SERVER which is defined in configure.php both in the include directory and the admin/include directory. Make sure they are defined correctly there.

Harvard - That can certainly be done but its not a feature. You'd need to code it yourself or hire someone. Small job though.

ikernbecauseicare - Sure. Backup database. Then, just change item_shipped and po_sent to 1 for all orders you want to exclude like this:

UPDATE orders_products SET po_sent=1 WHERE orders_id<101

and

UPDATE orders_products SET item_shipped=1 WHERE orders_id<101

This would be for orders 100 and below. Adjust as needed.

As for your error, it probably means you did not copy over all the files in the email directory. Email me for assistance if you aren't the person I already helped with this.

I get this error on install. Ive tried a search but come up with nothing I can understand.
Ive followed the install to the letter.

Thanks In advance.


Error is:

Hi Gang -

What's the current version of Drop Shipping PO Module (and where can I find it?
Also would this work with ZC 1.3.7.1? I have an older version of the module there and for some reason the "Send For Unknown Customer" stopped working - when pushing send, th epage just re-loads without the usual confirmation at the top "PO sent *****" etc.

So I thought might be time for an upgrade.

thanks!
Gabstero.

Also - how can I find what current version of the mod I am running currently??

thanks!

Hi,
I am running Zen Cart version v1.3.9f
It is a new installation of zencart.
I installed Ty_Package_Tracker, Google Analytics.
I am able to get extra's Edit Subcontractors and
Set subcontractors. I have created a dummy order and when I go to Customers Send PO's or Send from unknown customers it is a blank page. The enter tracking numbers page shows up but both of those are completely blank with no html code shown.

Please help.
Thanks,
Tony

This is the fix for my problem, just found it earlier in the posts.

As for the Send PO and Send PO for unknown customers page, you need to add this line of text before where the function zen_get_products_manufacfturers_name is defined:

Code:

if (!function_exists('zen_get_products_manufacturers_name')) {

Just search for "function zen_get_products_manufacturers_name" and add this before that line.

At the end of the function zen_get_products_manufacturers_name you will see a "}". After that "}" add another "}".

This needs to be done in admin/send_pos.php and admin/send_pos_nc.php

Hi,

I've installed this module and everything seams to be working fine except one thing.

I placed a test order, sent the email to myself as the drop shipper and clicked the link to enter the tracking number.

The page confirm_track_sub.php comes up blank.... Here is the URL in the email:

//confirm_track_sub.php?x=0&y=11

Clicking the link returns HTTP 500 Internal Server Error

I have changed all instances of admin to my admin folder. I'm not sure what else I need to change.

Any help is much appreciated. Thanks

Chuck

Found this:

Symptom: Using the new version of TY Package Tracker makes the enter tracking page not function correctly or not function at all.

Cause: A legacy line of code in Purchase Orders requires a file from TY Package Tracker that no longer exists in the new version. Luckily, as I said, this line of code is legacy, and should no longer be necessary.

Solution: This makes the solution easy! Just remove this line of code from admin/confirm_track_sub.php:

Code:

require('admin/includes/extra_datafiles/tracker.php');

Of course, admin will be changed to your admin directory per the installation instructions. Some versions may have a different line:

Code:

require($admin_dir.'/includes/extra_datafiles/tracker.php');

Either way, remove this line and all is well again.

I hope that helps!

Hi,

I've installed "drop ship purchase order" addon and currently exploring it in detail... my question is that:

will this addon work even if the customer is going to checkout directly through paypal express checkout, without creating an account through zencart...?

please advice
