BambooInvoice 0.86 preview

June 09th, 2008

I've released a preview copy of 0.8.6 here.

If you've got an adventurous spirit, give it a whirl, if no bugs are found, it will form the basis of the next release.

  • Added custom logo upload feature
  • Added password change functionality
  • Fixed a bug when generating reports with no invoices
  • Fixed a bug where a single invoice view wasn't accounting for configured days overdue when reporting how overdue it was
  • Moved most of the pagination configuration into config/pagination.php
  • Removed hardcoded english text from invoice_table_inc, retrieve_invoices() function, and settings page
  • Fixed up the CSS to work on very wide resolutions (Man I love my iMac...)
  • Fixed a bug where tax status was not honoured for invoice items
  • Fixed some rounding error that may cause closed and paid invoices
  • Reduced a lot of duplicated code in the invoice retrieval functions
  • Fixed a bug where status was hardcoded to 30 days when viewing individual invoices
  • Fixed a layout issue, where low resolution monitors had invoice items overflowing
  • Moved some items out of "common_assets" view group and removed "inc" from filename
    • loginform moved to login
    • invoice_new moved to invoices
    • invoice_table moved to invoices
  • Removed invoice_status_menu, sub_menu, invoice_action_menu
  • Fixed a bug where client notes could not be left blank
  • Fixed a bug where password reset was referencing a non existing function getContactId()

how much of a pain is it to upgrade from 0.8.3 to 0.86?

Back up your data and give it a whirl.  I’m hoping it’ll be smooth, but you’ll need to be at least at 0.8.3 to make the jump, so grab 0.8.4 first and then immediately go to 0.8.6

You may rather just go to 0.8.5 first until 6 is out of testing… not sure - depends on how much you like to walk on the wild side ;)

Nice! I like the password change feature. A lot easier than having to go uncomment the code from the login controller.
The more fixes/features the more I find that I like BambooInvoice.

Looking even better Derek. Work of a genius I have to say! Keep it up!

I have emailed you my 0.82 database dump last week, please do assist in the conversion, thanks!

Getting better and moved to the right direction.

Keep it up

BambooInvoice rox but… allow me to give you a feedback? What about having a “contact detail” tab on the create new client section? I found that part of the interface a little bit confusing.

Great work!

@Nicholas: yes I did get this, but it was I think a week after I had made the initial offer, and I just got swamped in the meantime.  I’ll try to get around to checking it out.

@Andre: There are client notes available now… is that what you mean?  If not, why don’t you make a feature request and we’ll look at it in the forums.

Derek,
looks really good and impressive easy to use. Are you planning to provide multi-currency support in the future? If yes do you already have a timeframe?

Derek wrote on June 23rd, 2008 @ 9:03

Thanks Dietmar.  Its something I’m looking at, but no time frame.
