Magento Invoice auto email not sent - magento

Magento 1.9 Community version. I enable invoicing in the system configuration but when a customer purchases a item (virtual) the new order email goes out but not the invoice. Am I missing something?

When you ask magento to invoice you order you need to check near the butto "Send copy of mail"

The sample code works in magento 1.9 sample code
The problem was that I had compilation enabled which did not allowed for any of changes to the code to take place.

Magento : Allow the customer to add a comment when adding a product to cart

I'm working on a Magento shop and I want to give the customers the possibility to add a comment when they put a product in cart.
The comment can contain specifications about the ordrered product. It must be visible in the checkout, in the confirmation email and in the admin sales interface.
Is there a way to do that with the standard Magento configuration? Or does a module exist?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Have a look at this extension, See the screenshots.

This may helpful for you, I have used this in a project, it works well.
But as you saying customer should add comment while adding product, you need to customize this extenion a bit.
Cheers :-)

Magento m2e pro post-update troubles

i'm using magento 1.7.2 CE and m2epro 6.0.8 , updated for 6.1.4 and have got troubles with Create Orders from Ebay
1 Problem:
Magento Order was not created.
Reason: The requested Payment Method is not available.
Found FAQ Hint, that says :
You should enable payment method “M2E Pro Payment”
in System→Configuration→Payment Methods
i've checked this setting, it IS enabled, don't know what else i can do.
Payments done on Ebay are PayPal, there were no changes of setting after update
however i can confirm the order manually, but then i have another Problem with Double VAT calculation, that doesn't appear on automatic order creation.
FAQ says, Double VAT are only created if Catalog Prices are set Excluding VAT, but my Magento manages Prices including VAT, so dont how else to avoid double VAT
Thanks in advance
I had the same problem today. In my case it was caused by the module RicoNeitzel_PaymentFilter. I had to activate the "M2E Pro Payment" - method for all customer groups.

Magento not creating order for M2Epro Orders

I have implemented M2Epro with magento.
I have used Ebay_Available_quantity attribute to set ebay available quantity.
But there are time where website normal stock is zero and product is out of stock and its still listing on ebay.
When someone buys it on ebay. It does make an order on M2Epro. But does not allow to make order as a magento order.
Is it because it is out of stock or quantity is zero ?
Can we have exceptions for third party sales ?
Thanks
Abhi
We also encountered this issue some time ago and this is what M2e answered on an email:
Thank you for provided details.
I checked your FBA order XXXX and I understand that you
want Magento order creation for FBA orders do not depend on stock
availability.
Let me please explain the logic how Magento orders are created. When
a channel order is imported in M2e Pro, M2e Pro checks settings
provided in Account settings > Orders tab. If corresponding settings
for Magento order creation are provided - M2E Pro sends a request to
Magento to create a Magento order for the channel order.
Magento orders are created due to Standard Magento functionality and
Core Models. Magento does not let to create an order if the product is
out of stock or 'disabled' or does not have available qty in Magento.
These requirements should be met so that the order was successfully
created.
M2e Pro cannot affect the logic of Magento orders creation process.
You can temporarily set 'in stock' status and qty available if you
want Magento order to be created at one for FBA order.
Hope this explanation will be helpful. Please let me know if I can
assist you with something else.
Next email:
Other our customers use backorders feature. As a possible workaround
for creation orders when product quantity is 0, you can allow for
needed products (product should be in stock, manage quantity - "yes".
This will allow Magento order creation for corresponding FBA order if
qty=0. You can set this parameter in Magento product inventory.
I have consulted with our development department on your case. As a
possible workaround, we can provide you with a part of the code which
is responsible for orders functionality. If your developers would be
able to adjust the needed changes, we would be glad to assist you.
Please also note, that we will not guarantee the proper work when some
custom modifications to the code are applied. In case this suggestion
is approved by your developers, please send us your confirmation and I
will send you a part of the code.
The code they wanted to provide was useless, it was just a hint that the magic happens in
app/code/community/Ess/M2ePro/Model/Order.php
public function createMagentoOrder()
which is quite obvious.
Please consider that backorders feature will bring other issues, so we do not use this and currently live with this situation as it is.
For me it is a quite important and standard situation to have FBA stock but no magento stock, so I don't understand why they don't fix the problem.
When time is available we will do a fix ourselves.

Magento Checkout: Item out of stock charges customer but no order / order confirmation

I am using Magento 1.6 with the out-of-the-box one page checkout.
Upon the final submit, after the customer has reviewed their order, there seems to be a glitch: If an item has become out of stock, the customer is notified and the order seems not to be going through (no order is created and no confirmation page). However, authorize.net does get the complete transaction request and charges the customer. It seems to only happen if an item has become out of stock. (Customer could be lingering to hit the submit button for quite a while.)
What can I do? Add a java script function to check upon stock on clicking submit?
Is this a known bug?
Thanks!
Is your system set to allow Backorders?
System > Config > Catalog > Inventory > Backorders "No Backorders".
If that is set to disallow backorders I wonder why the add-to-cart button even displays.
If you are using a custom template I might start there in troubleshooting. Switch back to a default template and see if this issue persists.

magento attributes on back end

Hey guys
I have a problem, that is I have a d.o.b attribute
displayed on the front-end but the info that gets written
by the customer, I don't get on the back-end or the magento dashboard
can I please get help on how to get the d.o.b info on the back-end customer info
please help.....
In the latest Magento 1.5, there is a Date of Birth attribute for the Customer entity. This attribute is on the Account Information section of the Customer Information tab in the admin. I'm not sure if this is the case prior to 1.5 as I currently don't have access to an earlier install. But this attribute is not available for entry on the front end (in customer/account/create/ or customer/account/edit/) in the latest or previous versions.
Which leads me to believe that you're using a pre 1.5 version of Magento and that you or someone you know may have modified a core design template to add that field to the front end. If this is the case, then that field needs to be an actual attribute of the Customer entity. Once it is so, you can rewrite the content block for the Account Information section of the Customer Information tab to a block in a new module of yours to display that field.
