Re: [Citrusdb-users] (no subject)
You can actually start the customer account numbers at any number you want, maybe this should be a higher number by default. If you want to alter the customer table, you can run this SQL command to start the number at 1 for example: ALTER TABLE `customer` AUTO_INCREMENT = 1 It may also be a better idea to use something like the customer email address as their account manager login instead of their account number... this is something to think about for future versions.

Re: [Citrusdb-users] (no subject)
Thanks AJ & Paul, This was a question of mine that I had on the side. Concerning the customer authentication for the online portion I would personally stay away from using e-mail address for authentication purposes due some accounts not having them on file until later. The site I am working on now is sending out paper invoicest to customers who's only information we have on hand (initially) is full name and address. The only true constants for accounts are most likely going to be the there name and the arbitrary account number CitrusDB create's for them, and I'd prefer to keep it that manner for the login. I guess what would be the nicest option is for the administrator to be able to configure what is used for the login on the online customer protion of the site. But I have no idea what would go into setting up a function like this. Personally login via account number is the best in my eyes.

Re: [Citrusdb-users] Invoices
Yes, this is possible using a unix command like wget run in cron, or by running a modified einvoice php file from the command line php interpreter. To use wget, one would also have to generate the right login cookie for this to work. You would use wget to query a url such as: http://www.yourname.com/citrusdb/index.php?load=billing&tooltype=module&type=tools&einvoice=on&billingdate=YYY-MM-DD&submit=Submit It's also possible to rip out the web based php code from the tools/modules/billing/einvoice.php file into it's own php file and, modify that php file to login to the database and take some command line inputs from a script in cron that knows what day it wants to bill, then send that data through the same einvoicing process.

Re: [Citrusdb-users] (no subject)
Paul, can this be done to a working system with current users? Where the next account would be the new #s? or would it have to be done before use. Also.. Your example context didnt work for me.. What exaclty do I have to type and how on mySQL.
