I have been busy integrating Asterisk into NimbleBilling – take a look see and let me know what you think!
UPDATE : An online demo is available here!
As a sole proprietor and “freelancer” it is never easy wearing all of the hats, especially when I am knee deep in bugs and get a sales or support call. One of the most troubling issues I have is with asking for money. I never have a problem creating the invoice but it is that bloody send button that kills me.
Because of the above – I have decided to finally get organized and put together an automated invoicing application so I don’t have to worry about billing – the computer does for me. Basically you point your browser to a web app and adda few items to a job list – then save. Here’s a screencast that should demo it better than I can type it :
Here’s some of the functionality summed up in a brief list.
- Add / Edit / Delete Clients
- Add / Edit / Delete Invoices
- Add / Edit / Delete Jobs
- Add / Edit / Delete Taxes
- Add / Edit / Delete Services / Products
- Auto Email Invoice
- Download PDF Invoice
It probably does a lot more but I am too excited to complete the PayPal module.
Be sure to check back for updates – a version will be available for you shortly!
It gets very repetitive writing forms for clients – that’s why I decided to take the last hour to write this piece of fine code.
It takes whatever title you give a form object and creates a copy / paste dump for your view, controller and Javascript. It doesn’t handle checkboxes or select boxes – but that is because I find the form is not the time killer; it’s the Javascript and validation. The nice part is that most of the heavy lifting is done for you – plus you do not have to worry about spelling mistakes or silly syntax stuff because it is all duped in the script.
I’d like to pop this up on a subdomain after making it pretty – please comment if you think you will find this little app useful.
PS. During the recording I noticed a small error in the code – no need to comment, it is fixed now. The json_encoded array was returning a value that would not display in the error fields due to a mismatch in the name.
UPDATE : Check Out the Application Here!
I have fully tested the generated code and it works great, here’s a video demonstrating how to use “FormTorch”.
