Packing Slip - Customer Email Address

[DonAshby]

Hi Everyone,

Has anyone figured out how to include the customer's email address to print on the packing slip that prints out of the Dashboard when you print all the orders. It would also help if it was on the Invoice that prints. We need the email address to send shipping information to the customer from Shipworks.

Also, has anyone figured out how to do an order feed out of the database ( or dashboard ) in a format that we can export to our Shipworks shipping program?

Is there any way to interleave the Packing Slip with the Invoice so they come out of the printer together?

Thanks, Don

On Admin/Orders/Print PackSlips.aspx, put this:
<asp:Label ID="ShipTo" runat="server" Text='<%#((OrderShipment)Container.DataItem).FormatToAddress()%>'></asp:Label>
Add this line -----------><br/><asp:Label ID="ShipToEmail" runat="server" Text='<%#Eval("ShipToEmail") %>'></asp:Label>


Shipworks ---You can pm me or email me with your specs and I'll look at it. I just did a .csv export of order data for someone and learned a lot from coding that.

Don,

I have a competing product called Shipper 3.0 that works directly with AbleCommerce 7:

Shipper 3.0 Release Candidate 1

You can easily interleave an invoice with a packing slip. Please let me know if you have any questions about Shipper 3.0.

Thanks Judy,

We now have it on the packing slip. Do you know how to do it for the invoice as well?

You can edit the following function of the Invoice

Code: Select all

 protected string GetShipToAddress(object dataItem)

and locate locate the following line of code

Code: Select all

if (!addressList.Contains(shipTo)) addressList.Add(shipTo);

and make it look like

Code: Select all

if (!addressList.Contains(shipTo))
            {
                addressList.Add(shipTo);
                addressList.Add(shipment.ShipToEmail);
            }

mazhar, I think I tried that and it displayed the email on the same line as the country and I couldn't get it to go to the next line. Any help on this?

I added the Email and Phone number to the "SOLD TO" side of the Invoice like this:

Add this function:

protected string GetEmailPhone(object dataItem)
{
return ((Order)dataItem).BillToPhone.ToString() + "<br />" + ((Order)dataItem).BillToEmail.ToString();
}

Add the line "<br /><%# GetEmailPhone(Container.DataItem) %>" below :

<tr>
<td style="width:10px;text-align:center;font-weight:bold" valign="top">S O L D &nbsp; T O</td>
<td valign="middle" width="50%"><%# GetBillToAddress(Container.DataItem) %>
<br /><%# GetEmailPhone(Container.DataItem) %></td>
....
looks like:

Yes <br /> will do the trick in both ways either you place it in HTML part or just append just before the Email information string.

This post was great helping me add the customer's phone and email to the printable invoice. I just need help with a couple more changes.

I need to have the order comments print on the Admin Print Invoice.

Also, is there a way to make the invoice print with smaller fonts?

Thanks for your help.

This works very well for the order form, but the code for the packing slip is completely different and adding the same code doesn't work, at least I haven't been successful.
Any ideas?
Thanks
