Approving Orders In Virtuemart 08.10.08
I need to approve the orders prior to get the status “confirmed”.
The idea is the following:
* I have user A and user B. Both belonging to the same company. The liaison to identify “same company” is the field “Customer Number / ID” of Shopper information. For example both users (A and B) will have the same ID.
* User A is posting an order. Joomla should send three emails
** One to the user placing the order (Out-of-the-box) eg User A
** One to the shopper (Out-of-the-box)
** One to the user(s) of the same ID. eg. User B
* User B will log into the backoffice system triggered from the email he/she receives.
* User B will have access only to “orders” tab. by clicking that tab User B should see only the “pending” orders of user(s) belonging to same company eg User A and the only avaible status will be “Approve”
* User B selects the order(s) he/she would like to approve and select “approve” + notify customer + Update Status. The normal virtuemart mail is created named “status changed”
So what I expect to develop is:
a) the functionallity of sending email to the other users of the same company
b) the new module named “list orders for approval” where
b1) only orders of the same company will be appeared
b2) only Pending + Approved + All criteria will be available
b3) only status Approved will be able to be selected.
