Invoice Module Variables
The following variables can be used when creating a Web Page View to generate an Invoice using the Invoicing Module:
Invoice Items
Invoice Items refers to the Level 2 or Level 3 items to be billed.
On the Application Configuration page you must first provide the field names of the associated Level 2 or 3 fields so they can be listed as part of the individual line items on the invoice. This is done in the Invoice Item Field Mapping section. The fields are:
- Item Detail:
- Item Quantity:
- Item Amount:
- Item Tax:
- Item Tax 2:
For example, the associated fields on the Level 2 or Level 3 entities could be named:
- Item Detail: @type@
- Item Quantity: @quantity@
- Item Amount: @rate@
- Item Tax: @GST Amount@
- Item Tax 2: @PST Amount@
On the Web Page View you refer to each of these fields using special terminology which allows them to be listed in the table as described above:
- Item Detail: ~description~
- Item Quantity: ~qty~
- Item Amount: ~amount~
- Item Tax: ~tax~
- Item Tax 2: ~tax2~
If you wish the Invoice Items to include fields other than the standard fields (which are Item Detail, Quantity, Amount, Tax1 and Tax2):
- Create a Store Value - System Variables field in the “Invoice Item Custom Fields” section of Application Configuration which refers to the field name of the Level 2 or 3 field (example: @Produce Code@).
- Hint: You can use the same name for this field (ie: Create a field called Product Code which stores a System Variable called @Product Code@)
- On the Web Page View you can refer to the field name from the “Invoice Item Custom Field” section between $’s. (Example: $Product Code$)
Invoice Totals
The following is a example that would be used on the Web Page View to create a table listing all the items for the invoice, as well as the SubTotal, Total GST, PST and Invoice Total:
<table> <tr> <td>Item Description</td> <td>Quantity</td> <td>Unit Cost</td> <td>Total Cost</td> <td>GST</td> <td>PST</td> </tr> <form name=frmsubact> [#(?object=items) <tr> <td>~description~</td> <td> ~qty~ </td> <td> ~amount~ </td> <td> ~fullamount~ </td> <td> ~tax~ </td> <td> ~tax2~ </td> </tr> #] </form> <tr> <td><b>Sub-Total:</b></td> <td>@amount@</td> </tr> <tr> <td><b>Total GST:</b></td> <td>@tax@</td> </tr> <tr> <td><b>Total PST:</b></td> <td>@tax2@</td> </tr> <tr> <td><b>Total:</b></td> <td>@invtotal@</td> </tr> </table>
The code between the [#(?object=items) and closing #] will be repeated for each line item to be included on the invoice.
