product Supplier fields

[jcorreia]

Hi,

I?m new to oscommerce and need a little help regarding a feature that i?m not sure if is there already any contribution that does this.

I need to keep track for each product i enter on the store of the supplier invoice details.

Things like supplier invoice number, date, name, model, sku etc...

 

Does oscommerce manage this or is there any contribution ?

Thanks :)

Nope. Its not in osCommerce. This is really an accounting function -- you are talking about a purchasing function. It is certainly possible to create such a function in osCommerce as a contribution, but I believe it will be quite a lot of work, since you will have to code it all from scratch.

 

I do think this would be a good addition to osCommerce, and I'm willing to help get such a function written. I have an accounting background and know the structure and features needed. However, I'm not a php programmer, so I don't think I can do it by myself.

 

Hopefully some programmer will see the need for this and be interested in taking it on. If so, please contact me, I'm willing to help.

This will allow you to keep more details about the vendor, but not collect details about transactions with the vendor, which is what jcorreia was looking for.

 

Even if you modify "Enhanced Vendors" to add additional fields, what will you do when there is more than one shipment from that vendor? More than one invoice?

 

No, jcorreia is looking for an entirely new table or more, and supporting php files to allow the admin to enter the data. It would be great if osCommerce added this capability. As I indicated before, I can help someone who is interested in writing this.
