Drop Shipping Purchase Orders Module for v1.3.8

[srturner47]

Find this in admin/send_pos.php. Flip [5] and [6].

$pdf->addClientShipAdresse($tmpt[0][5]);
$pdf->addClientBillAdresse($tmpt[0][6]);

Then open admin/pdfpack.php. Find this and change the text from Billing to Shipping.

$length = $this->GetStringWidth("Billing Address");
    $this->Cell( $length, 2, "Billing Address");

Then do the opposite with this in admin/pdfpack.php.

$length = $this->GetStringWidth("Shipping Address");
    $this->Cell( $length, 2, "Shipping Address");

Should do the trick! Enjoy!

I also need to add
CALL ON ARRIVAL (Customer's phone number)
after the shipping address. I sell baby chicks so the Post office calls the customer to pick them up instead of getting delivered to their door.

Also can we turn off the country?
Is there any way to force the states to be the 2 letter abbreviation? Mine shows up
LAKE CITY, South Carolina 29560
United States

I would like it to be
LAKE CITY, SC 29560
Call on Arrival 999-999-1234

with 999-999-1234 being the customer's phone number.

Also I am required to put "Hatched 10am Date shown on postage" and NPIP 48-236 . I would put NPIP 48-236 right next to my business name. Where does that pull from?

I was just thinking about the flipping the addresses. Now the email text will still say the ship to address correct?

purelypoultry -- All I did was give you a way to flip the shipping and billing address location on the packing list. Shouldn't affect anything else.

What you want done can be done and is not really that hard to do. But, its more work than could be simply explained in a post here. If you need all that on your packing list you'll either need to learn to code or hire a coder. Here's a tip that should help you isolate where all the action occurs -- all calls to the pdf packing list begin with $pdf->.

As for changing the state to the two digit code, this can easily be done with the database, as both the state name and code is stored for all states.

Good luck! Fun business!

A few questions:

I want my subcontractor to enter ship dates not tracking info. It is very important that customer's know their ship date and get it back to them quickly. the SC submitting this directly to the customer via an app would be wonderful. Can this be done? With current mods?

Would it be too much to give me how to put the Call on Arrival and Phone number?

I'm sorta new to zen cart. I have installed the newest version of purchase orders. I was wondering how to set it to automatically send POs as well as be able to send a .csv along with. Thank you very much for the help.

You can do that with the 5.0 version offered at zencartmod.com

[chronofreak25]

Okay thanks, also I just wondering can i do an upgrade from the newest free version to version 5.0? Also in your experience is there any large features for drop shipping missing in the 5.0 release that i will need to find another mod to add in?

[srturner47]

chronofreak -- I can't support v5 through this thread. Email me if you have questions.

As for large features missing from drop ship mod, this is a rather broad question. It really depends on your needs. I encourage you backup your install, install v3, and find out for yourself. Or read the manual, it should pretty much tell you what this mod can do.
