FAQ
Q: Is it possible to show the order notes on the invoice and/or packing slip?A: Yes. There are four constants in
admin/includes/classes/observers/NotesObserver.php:
const PACKINGSLIP_NOTES_TOP = false; const PACKINGSLIP_NOTES_BOTTOM = true; const INVOICE_NOTES_TOP = false; const INVOICE_NOTES_BOTTOM = true;Set these according to whether you want the notes to appear on the top or bottom of each place.
Then merge in the notifier blocks that are used in Zen Cart 1.5.8 to your version:
NOTIFY_ADMIN_ORDERS_PACKINGSLIP_ADDITIONAL_DATA_TOPorNOTIFY_ADMIN_ORDERS_PACKINGSLIP_ADDITIONAL_DATA_BOTTOMfromadmin/packingslip.phpNOTIFY_ADMIN_ORDERS_INVOICE_ADDITIONAL_DATA_TOPorNOTIFY_ADMIN_ORDERS_INVOICE_ADDITIONAL_DATA_BOTTOMfromadmin/invoice.php
