[SOLVED] Error in Adding Supplier (Property Supplier->id_employee is empty)

[Steve Joms]

Hi All,

 

Does any one here encountered this error Property Supplier->id_employee is empty?

 

That occurs when I was adding suppliers.

 

Thanks!

Hi AnnaChen, When I tried to add supplier this is the error I am receiving. Please see screenshot. My PS version is 1.6.0.9

I just checked my PrestaShop v1.6.1.7 test site and the Supplier class doesn't have an id_employee field. Are you using a third-party module that is overriding the Supplier class? If so, you'll need to fix that module. Check whether override/classes/Supplier.php exists.

Hi Rocky, thanks for the response. I will check on it and get back to you.

Hi Rocky, that Supplier.php file doesn't exist on my override/classes directory

It would appear some module or code somewhere is expecting the Supplier class to have an id_employee field and is crashing since it doesn't have one. Hopefully, there's more information in the error message that can help you pinpoint the code that's causing the error.

Hi Guys,

 

I now solved it. Thanks for the pointers. I check the /classes/Supplier.php and I see that the id_employee variable is set as required in the code and also I checked the supplier table structure for PS 1.6.0.9 there is id_employee field. As a workaround I just set it to required=false now the encoding is working, I see that employee id is just required for tracing purposes thats all.

 

Thanks again! Cheers!

 

Have a great day ahead
