Hi,
I am using Joomla 3.6 and VirtueMart 3.0.16
I use vtiger CRM to pull in all my orders from ebay and Amazon, once processed, I update the shipping for Amazon and eBay from vtiger.
I want to pull in the Virtuemart orders, i have seen the orders db table so that should be easy.
But how do i update the shipping so that the customer is emailed from VM once shipped?
If i update a table field for shipping, will VM automatically send the shipped email to the customer, or is there some other process?
Any help will be appreciated.
you need some way to update the order via the VM api to "Shipped" etc which will trigger the emails and stock etc etc
Probably via a plugin somehow.. look at any payment plugin to see the function and triggers used
e.g. the orders model function updateStatusForOneOrder()
Thanks for the quick reply
I will check the functions you recommended
Are orders in VM3 still stored in the same tables as in VM2?
yes.. only minor changes I think (comments etc)
Thanks for your help
