two e-mail addresses for distributors

Hi

I'm looking for a mod that i could specify two e-mail addresses for some customers. I sell do dealerships and need the order confirmation e-mail to be sent to the individual that placed the order (spares department) as well as the accounting officer of the relevant client.

I need the easy way...

Re: two e-mail addresses for distributors

I think haredo misunderstood the question. The suggestion he offered will send all order confirmation emails to the addresses you mention.
But, you asked to be able to specify multiple email addresses for the customer, so that customer's orders can be sent to multiple addresses owned by that customer.

To do that would required adding an additional email address field to your database, then altering the input/edit forms in My Account to manage the additional address, and then alter the email-sending routines related to order emails so that it pulls the additional email address field info from the database and re-sends the email to that address if it's valid.
It's a bit of an involved custom programming alteration.

Re: two e-mail addresses for distributors

Thanks Haredo, its the order confirmation that goes to the customer that needs to be sent to two addresses at the customer pertaining his order alone.

DrB -- do you know of a patch or fix currently available or is this a case of backing things up regularly and see if i manage?:blink:

Re: two e-mail addresses for distributors

There is no "patch or fix" because there is no bug to "fix".

You'll need to do the custom coding to get the feature you desire, or post an ad asking for paid help in the Commercial Help Wanted section of the forum if you want to hire the help from someone.
