As far as i can see it should now be possable to start to add images into the pdf’s by 1. adding the url link of the item onto the sales order line (yet to work out) and 2 then useing the new advanced template to have the img command with the url link, if this is the case has any one done this and what is the 2 sets of codes/setups or is it done another way

Thanks for any help in this matter

Would add javascript i think be the only way to get the url, but have a little knowage so not looked at the code yet till i can see if possable and would not know the code for the advanced template

Create a custom transaction column field and source it from the item’s image field. You can then use that new field to display the items image

[john.chick]

you cant directly source an image field into a transaction only the url, which you should be able to use the adv aced templates to then display but its the template code i need

I have not been able to get this to work. In theory it should be working but I end up getting some generic error.

What I did was this:

I created a custom item field that stores the image url.

I created a column field sourced from from the item field to pull the url into the sales order.

Then I update the transaction template and add

*This is where the error occurs. No printing after adding the image variable. I’ve tried many different versions of this method and it just seems that the image inside the list loop doesn’t work.

What is strange is that I also used the same thing to add the image to confirmation emails and it does work! Instead of using the advanced forms for the email I have a slightly modified version of it saved as an email template.

The code works fine but using the field(Type:Hyperlink) ends up with error!!!

So, you need to store the image url in field(Type: Free form text) on Item record and source it on custom column Field(Type: Free form text) of Sales order.

Use it in PDF template and check it out.

Hope it works fine.

How about I want to see image also in the sales order?

Thank you !

The item records already have an image field. I tried to set this up with that join but it would only pull the first image and not any of the rest.

So I did a custom column field (text not hyperlink) as suggested above and then input the item’s image link. Here is the code part of the template that works. The only thing to be aware of is size of the image.

Code:
