osCommerce

The e-commerce.

Pre Download question

Recommended Posts

Hi all, I am trying to create a site for someone and she wants to install quick books or one of those sites with it already installed. The sole purpose is to be able to track repeat customers and anytime someone has purchased from her before will show a list of their transactions. Was wondering if I could do that with this script and not have to mess with quick books which in my opinion would be a big security risk if not protected very well and have ssl.

 

Best Regards,

Scott

The standard OSCommerce download records all this information. The admin section comes with built in easy to click reports. For example customer total purchases, listing of new accounts created by day, week, etc., product total sales per time period.

 

The reporting features on the standard download are slim, but there are a number of contributions available to expand this. The standard download does not have an admin report that yields a list of a customers orders, but customers can click to their account and get such a list (see the catalog pages beginning with 'account_') , and if you had basic php skills this could serve as a model to create the report you need.

 

One nice thing about OSCommerce is that the file structure is not complex, and accessible, and many dabblers in php are able to do quite well modifying things. (Try attacking say Magento without a full set of php skills. Sheesh.)
