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!
This is a great technique for use with large forms with many values you need to save. It can get in the way if you need individual validation for each value – however it can save a whole ton of time when submitting any number of form fields.
The video isn’t super high quality so I have attached the source here.
Two CodeIgniter developers will be joining us for July’s Screencast – A spectacular C++ also PHP master Mr. Weston and of course myself. This month’s topic will be JQuery and Codeigniter which I assume will draw a crowd as it is a quickly emerging now that CI has really exploded in popularity.
We have room for 18 participants and would love to know what the audience (meaning you) wants to discuss specifically.
I shot this screen for those who are looking for an extremely simple explanation and demonstration for sending and receiving data asynchronously via jQuery Post and JSON. About two years ago I really struggled with this concept so I figure there are probably others who will find this information useful. I would have been extremely happy to find something like this when I was learning (and frustrated).
