Customers VAT Number on invoice wont work

[Bart_1977]

Hi all, i have a strange problem.

 

For b2b sales in the EU i need to add the customers VAT number on the invoices.

I already selected in Localisation --> Countries --> Adress the vat_number.

 

Now the strange thing: On the delivery slip the VAT number is there, but on the invoice it isnt...

 

I have a third party theme installed and checked the following maps: Public/PDF, Override/Classes/PDF and MyTheme/PDF

But i cant find anything strange... ( but im no programmer )

 

Does anyone have any idea to solve this problem?

 

Best regards,

 

Bart

Check whether there are TPL files in the themes/<your_theme>/pdf. If there is, you can compare the invoice and delivery-slip TPL files to see what's missing. If there's no files in that directory, then the files will be in the pdf directory in the root of your website.

What is your version? Some versions remove the VAT number from the address.

 

See PS_INVCE_INVOICE_ADDR_RULES and PS_INVCE_DELIVERY_ADDR_RULES records in the ps_configuration table.

Hi Tuk66,

 

the shop is running on version 1.6.1.4

 

I found a solution for this, i just added <br>{$addresses.invoice->vat_number}<br /> in the invoice-b2b.tpl and the VAT number is now on the invoices.

Just to make it complete: I needed VAT number on every invoice pdf, as long as existing. So I added right after {$invoice_address} in the invoice template:
 
 

{if !empty($addresses.invoice->vat_number)}<br>UID: {$addresses.invoice->vat_number}{/if}

 

 

So it only shows when customers have entered their VAT
