similar to: What do you use for Invoicing?

After spending a couple hours scanning for an open source (non- commercial) billing package yesterday I am underwhelmed. Almost all of the packages listed on the WIKI appear to be defunct, for several years now. I will be happy to get a login and edit them out if that is the proper method to do so. My requirements are very minimal and at this point unless I have missed something will

Just wanted to ask a quick question here. I am running GNUC 2.6.12 and when I create a invoice for a customer I have to enter an invoice number. I was thinking perhaps there is setting somewhere that I missed to get it to automatically fill in a invoice number? Id hate to have invoices with the same invoice number since I have to manually type them in right now. Thank you, jdegraw

I am building an invoicing system but cannot use the auto_increment field to determine the invoice number (because they are running 3 different companies off the one system. I need to find the last invoice number from any given company and then add 1 to it to get the next invoice number. BUT, there is a unique case on the very first invoice produced because there is no earlier invoice

Hi: @x = Invoice.find(:first) if @x do one thing else do another end This ought to work but does not. I think that @x is nil but if I test for existance or @x != nil or @x.attribute != nil - my code does not respond correctly. What is the value of @x if there are no records yet in the invoices table? Thanks in advance. bruce

I''m trying to create a sequence with no gaps in my db (contrived example, but should work out the same as my real one), and believe db-managed transactions are the way to go about this. It''s my first real ''go'' at transactions, so I may be mistaken about how things really work. Anyway.. Consider this example code: Class Invoice < ActiveRecord::Base def

Hi, I am doing a project on invoice. For that I have to use a page both for crating new invoices and for updation of existing invoices.

Hi, im looking to build a page similar to a shopping cart page. When you change the ''price'' or ''quantity'' fields, the total is calculated and displayed. There are other fields in the form which have no relation to this action. So i guess observe_form is not required. Can someone tell me what the best practise is for this?

When using PHP, I was able to enter a query against my list of invoices such as : Select SUM(amount) from invoices where project="123" This would give me the total amount of all invoices for project 123. In rails, how would I do this? I tried using "find_by_sql," but couldn''t figure out how to extract the results out of this. Thanks!

I have three tables, Invoices, Projects, and Managers. Each manager has many projects. Each project has many invoices. When displaying a list of the invoices, I am using: Invoice.find(:all, :include => [:project]) Since the list shows information from the project table.

Hello, First of all, I love RoR. I am studying it, and I am finally "getting there". However, I do have a bit of a problem with ActiveRecord''s saving behaviour. Imagine to have Orders (id, name) {has_one:invoice} and Invoices (id, order_id) {belongs_to :order} . If you type: invoice = Invoice.new(...whatever...) an_order.invoice = invoice if invoice fails to save, you
