It is the first in an upcoming series of plugins for the everyday work these businesses face. We use it ourselfs and thus actively develop it. To be able to customize and extend it, we build in support for custom invoice and offer templates as custom payment importers. If you feel there is something missing, feel free to send us a message.

Importing/Exporting Data

You can import and exoprt customers, invoices and payments from various sources and to various formats. You can either use one of the premade importers/exporters, a generic CSV import/export or create your own custom importer/exporter.

To create a custom payment importer please follow these steps:

  1. Create folder cockpit/crm/importers/payments
  2. Copy plugins/studiobosco/cockpitcrm/importers/payments/NorisbankCsvV1.php to cockpit/crm/importers/payments/MyPaymentsImporter.php (or any name you want)
  3. Adjust cockpit/crm/importers/payments/MyPaymentsImporter.php to your needs
  4. Test the importer by downloading a CSV file from your bank account and go to Cockpit: CRM > Payments > Import payments and then select "My Payments Importer" from the list and upload the CSV file.

In the same way you can create custom invoice and customer importers.
