It's great to see this happening. This is very important.
We have never used the default CSC templates as these did not include enough of the info (variables) we wish to convey,
the layout is not at all compact, causing many printed pages when customers order many products, and there were no combination images.
A few questions/suggestions:
Product Combination Image:
Is the Option Combination image supported?
In our case some images are very tall, so it appears the image will scale to a maximum height of 50px.
Where is this maximum size set?
Shipping/delivery days.
Supplier Purchase Order, in addition to "Invoice"
I actually could not find a separate template for Supplier emails.
The info sent to a supplier will not be the same as that sent to the customer.
This needs new fields, set in the Supplier Profile:
- Account Number.
- Supplier Instructions
- Notes (or Delivery Notes - see below)
Store specific Templates
Are the templates store specific?
Product Options
It would be good to be able to configure the way Options are displayed, especially for product with many options.
Memo, Order Templates
In addition to the Invoice Template there is the obvious need to be able to edit others:
- Supplier PO (as per above)
- Credit Memo
- Order
One important thing that had caused major problems in the past is that many Email Clients did not render CSS properly.
This meant that we needed to completely remove the Styles Definitions and use only simple Inline CSS in the invoice.....tpl files.
Email clients may have evolved in recent years.. perhaps some feedback from store owners on this issue?
I see that the actual invoice template does have inline stiles... so this may have been addressed.
Ok so thats just a few, I dont want to get too carried away with me-specific requirements.
Its great to see CSCart going forward with improvements.
