Super Orders v3.0 Support Thread (for ZC v1.3.9)

picandnix:

No harm and easy enough to replace, just find them in the original ZC download Zip for the version you are running.

Thank you

Zen 1.3.9h
Anyone know why I'm getting this in my logs:

[22-Mar-2013 09:42:19 Europe/London] PHP Warning: stripslashes() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /home/******/public_html/admin/super_orders.php on line 177

V1.5.1

Packing list and edit page no longer show the shipping method. Shipping method does shows on the first page.

Any ideas what could have happened?

How do i split an order more than 1 time? i would have many times when i would have to split the original (parent) order 3-5 times depending on what they ordered.

currently i can only split the order 1 time.

any help on this?

You'd need to create custom code to do it.. > keystonewebworks:

no one has done this or had the need to do this before?

i take order from multiple drop shippers and it would be nice to split an order based on drop shipper.

any one want to try to come up with the custom code?? :)

To expand split orders CORRECTLY requires functionality to be able to properly reconcile the original order with all of the child orders. To do this is not a SIMPLE modification if it is to be done absolutely correctly.. Which is largely why it is not included in the current codebase.. There has never been a volunteer contributor who was willing to build a proper fully functional split order function for Super Orders.

There are a number of issues that must be addressed:

1. Only ONE order is tied to PayPal or credit card payments. So any well written split orders functionality would have to address issues like handling authorize and capture transactions as well refunds and credits with the payment processor for child orders..
2. There also has to be functionality to properly handle distributing taxes and shipping as well as any other order total modules (like coupons for example) amongst all the orders including the parent order. This functionality needs to not only calculate this for the child order, but RE-CALCULATE it for the parent too.
3. Child orders that are split from the parent and then split again. These too must reconcile with the original order.

The current split orders function does no such calculation to distrubute the shipping and taxes and simply leaves the shipping and taxes with the "parent order" while providing a simple "audit trail" to inform the shopowner of the source of the "child order". The current function also does not provide a means to process PayPal or credit card refunds for child orders, and it does not provide any means to handle child orders which the parent order is a "capture and authorize" type of order either.. The payment notification (grey box) is simply suppressed for the child order.

All of these things will need to be taken into consideration in order for split orders to be expanded into something which is truly useful for shopowners. Otherwise you will have to imploy some very manual means to keep track of the original and child orders.

BTW, this thread is for Super Orders v3.0 which is ONLY for Zen Cart v1.3.9 (as the title of this thread indicates).. There have been NO new updates to this version and it's unlikely that anyone will volunteer to build this functionality JUST for older versions of this module..

Can not seem to install a clean instance of plugin v.4.0.5. I renamed the Admin folders as instructed, made sure no files were in conflict, logged in to Admin, uploaded files, then clicked on any link.
I get a blank screen and can not get in to Admin again without replacing all site files from backup. Any thoughts?

Sorry... posted in wrong thread.

Payments made via Authorize.net, Linkpoint and PayPal are entered for you automatically.

Could enyone point me in the right direction to figure out how this is done, as I wan't to look into doing it for t.ex. Klarna and DIBS too. Tried to search for any info, both on web and in files, but still no luck on that. :)

PayPal.... vaguely remember this one... the Cart needs a PayPal token or ID code and your login ID to link between them.

When you create a PayPal account there is, somewhere, an option to create an ID token for your shopping carts.

I remember that you need to take that token ID from your PayPal account and drop it into the PayPal checkout element in the cart.

Now you will have to figure out the rest, where the PayPal creates the ID token and where to drop it into your checkout module. I've not touched it since setting up my cart three years ago so can't remember the exact details.

Hope this helped. :blush:

Thanks, not exactly what I needed - but I think I just have found what I really need.

It's the "function verify_so_paypal_records()" or "function verify_ccpay_records()" in admin/includes/classes/super_order.php
If I make similar functions for DIBS and Klarna I think it wil solve it. Will test and see. :)

I hope I am placing my query at right place.
I am using Zen cart for last 1 year, (Still) I don't have payment getaway, customer placing an order and then making payment by cheque, DD etc. I have to cancel or delete some order because of non payment,
Now I have register for TAX and I have to submit all the invoices to them, Now problem starts
my invoice should be serially arranged, Zen cart giving Invoice number automatically to every order,
sold or dispatched orders have some cancel or deleted orders in between. so sold invoice are not serial some invoice
numbers are missing, I want to customize my Invoice layout and want Invoice number generated or given by admin if sale is completed by payment. and current Invoice ID show as order number.
I have searched the net and found a problem for Opencart is my solution, in opencart invoice number is granted or generated by admin, can this be done by Super order or PDFOC ?? or is there any module available for this problem ??
I did't find any solution for my problem, please help in this regard.
I am not a coder and running my site by myself with lots of coding and help from you and forum.

Thanks in advance.

It can be done.. Not an easy change and it's unlikely that someone will just SHARE a solution on the forum. So it's likely that you will have to INVEST in the services of a developer to create the code you want..

Not gonna answer questions here regarding PDFOC ot any other module as that is off topic for the SUPER ORDERS SUPPORT thread.. If you want to ask this same question about other modules, post in their support threads or create another post to discuss..

You clearly don't understand the requirement for invoice numbers to be serially generated. They have to be serial, but they are! Every new invoice should have a number, even the ones that were cancelled. You should never delete invoices.

Your problem is not understanding the requirements, not a shortcoming of Zen Cart. I maintain a couple of OpenCart stores as well as Zen Cart ones and I can tell you that switching to OpenCart would not solve your problem.

For whatever reason it would appear that he only wants to generate an invoice number when a sale is finalized (paid for) so his invoice numbers will not have gaps in the number sequence.. It's doable, but not without custom code to create a serialized invoice number that is NOT the order number..

That is actually the accounting rules for some countries. It's a requirement. So I understand why he wants it. :)

I'm sure it is.. Actually why he wants it isn't important to me. I only be stated what he asked for so it was clear to others..

Hello,

I am using zencart 1.3.9h and super orders v3.0

If I open a customer and select packing slip, when the slip displays the word TRUE shows next to the QTY.

I have also attached a word doc showing the issue.

Does anyone have an idea why this is happening?
