Store PDF in filesystem and then email

Unread post by OLMGBG »

Hi All,

I'm writting an application in witch I'm supposed to "print" invoices as PDF (one monthly invoice per customer = one PDF file per customer per month) and email these invoices as attached document to customers (quite a simple process).
First, I have to store these PDF on a server filesystem (or as BLOB in the database). We need to have a look or reprint what we sent to customers at any time.
After generating PDF files, I have to send incoices to customers by email.
In a "previous life" :-) did this in printing PDF files to a filesystem storing URL in the database and then using database records to retrieve and attach documents to mails sent...

I havent found neither any function to print PDF from the server side nor function to print and store PDF from the client side.

Any Idea ?

Kind Regards,
OLM.

There is not a function built into nuBuilder to store PDFs into the database.

All of the report screens allow you to email PDFs as an attachment.

If you configure you system to use gmail in the setup, then all emails sent will be in the sent-items of that mail account.
