Company Name and ABN on Invoices
Submitted by harrywever on Fri, 03/08/2012 - 16:55
It has beaten me how to get the Practice name and ABN to print on invoices , receipts etc , I have looked up reports in OpenVPMS files but I am unable to work out the html document to work out how it is inserted.
Is there somewhere when setting up that I should have put this information in so it is inserted into the documents?
I am good with ODF files to edit but not the others which must require more complicated fields.
Can anyone point me in right direction on this one ?

Try this attachment - it will fill in practice details from OV setup. Save to your hard drive somewhere.
In iReport, open the invoice a4 practice name.jrxml. Click on the ABN box three times, then back space out the 00 000 000 000 and insert your own numbers. Then File | Save and "send" to OV (do you know how to upload reports/files to OV?). This jrxml requires that invoiceitems.jrxml be the matching file in "Invoice Items".
HTH.
Let me know how it goes.

Thanks Yuri, I have not used the attachment above you recommended but will do so when I have time to make further changes. I have managed to use invoice letterhead A4 file and put address and ABN on that successfully and also on receipt file so at least I have invoices and receipts with the practice and ABN details. I notice on your attachment it has a field for Practice Name etc and I can see the sense for having that.
My trouble , as well as crashed computer and loss of data etc, was that I had not installed Jasper application properly and therefore was unable to edit the jrmxl files but I reinstalled iReport1.36 ? and now can see how it works. Each step takes me a bit closer to understanding how to use the software.
And yes I think ABN and space for Company details somewhere in practice details would be a good move.
Thanks again, Harry

Now attached are Estimate .jrxml files: on the form I've changed "Estimation" to "Estimate" in the interests of correct English and added fields for clinic name,address, telephone number to be retrieved from OpenVPMS. You'll need to add your own ABN in the same way as for Invoices above.
It might be an idea for developers to add an ABN field to the Clinic details to enable its ease of use across a variety of .jrxml and .odt files.
