Simple Invoices - Forum

hey nilla,

re 1
- easiest is to just edit the invoice template and change the formating in there
- edit ./teamplates/invoices/default/ and find the quantity bit

and change it from
<td class="tbl1">{$invoiceItem.quantity|number_format:2}</td>
to
<td class="tbl1">{$invoiceItem.quantity|number_format:0}</td>

refer: http://au.php.net/number_format for more info on number_format

re 2
- refer ./modules/invoices/template.php
$invoice contains the main invoice details -
and $invoice['date'] will be in YYYY-MM-DD format - so you should be able to do $invoice['date']

$invoice['new_date'] = a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.strtotime.php'>strtotime ("+30 days", a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mktime.php'>mktime (0, 0, 0, substr($invoice['date'],8, 2), substr($invoice['date'], 5, 2), substr($invoice['date'], 0, 4)));

and then format the date with:

$invoice['new_date'] = a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php'>date ('Y m d', $invoice['new_date']);

theres probably a better way - but i not thinking to straight right now :)

Hi Justin,

Thank you, item 1 works fine now, but I have still problems with item 2.

The file template.php does not have any $invoice['date'] variable. Do I have to define both the invoice['date'] and the invoice['new_date'] variables myself. The invoice['date'] variable ought to be defined somewhre else?

hey nilla

in template.php there should be something like
$invoice = invoice::getInvoice($invoiceID);

$invoice is an array containing the main details of the invoices - not the line items though

do print_r($invoice); in the .php to see all the details of the array

hope this helps - let us know how you go

cheers

Hi Justin,

Sorry, but my programming knowledge is not enough to solve the problem with pay date until I get detailed instructions.

It is suprising to me that pay date isn´t included in the simple invoice program. I hope it will be in the future.

i´m using SI lastest version and I need to have no decimals in the invoice, I can´t find the string to change it

¿were is it?

Thanks
