Most orders are fulfilled locally for one of my end users.


I have a different use case for the same customer where fulfilment of product delivery is via a third party and this feature request suggests the following adaptation for the Email  which is sent out to Admin on payment success / completion.

1. Add an additional recipient field

- this field is optional and allows the store owner to define an additional email recipient for the admin order confirmation email (in addition to the store owner)

2. Add Custom field (Optionsl)

- this is a drop down chooser looking at all custom fields set against all products, allowing store owner to dictate which explicit product custom field this email will be associated with.

Example: When an order which is fulfilled by the third party is placed, that product will have a Custom Field (arbitrary name) associated with it.

When the order is placed, post success, if the order has the correct custom field, then the third party email is sent instead of the standard email.

These two new email configuration fields are both needed in order for the third party email to be sent.

This allows for multiple 3rd party fulfilment houses defined by email recipient and custom field.

Happy to provide additional input if needed.

Chris,

This can be done with the advanced notifications app (if you don't wish to create an advanced email notification using php to check the custom field and then change the admin email addresses to the 3rd party email address) that I need to prep for release - which allows you to add another receiver to the email notification and can set different email notification rules based on the category, product, etc...

I am heading out to your side of the pond tomorrow so not sure how much time I will have to get this ready, but will do my best to make it available as soon as possible...

Sounds spot on Adam.

 Where abouts on my pond land are you heading?

Chris,
We are starting off in Portsmouth and cruising to Amsterdam, Brussels, Scotland, Ireland, and then a few nights in London at the end.  Not sure how far you are away from any of those places, but I am meeting up with some of the London JUG members one of those last nights in London... (on Aug 30th) if you are in the area - you are more than welcome to hang...
