Hi, I know it has been 3 years since this request, I was just curious about the last updates and came back here. I'm still working with WHMCS but I would like to see the "BILLABLE ITEMS" feature from WHMCS implemented in BLESTA platform. Hope will be developed such an useful feature. The other 2 requests from this ticket I don't use them anymore. I mean: I'm using Stripe (which I see it's already available in BLESTA), and NAMECHEAP instead of LOGICBOXES. In the case of NAMECHEAP, I was trying your DEMO page, and seems like the "ID protection" is not supported yet? (pic attached)

Thanks for the reply Cool, it will be very useful. The reason I don't do this, and I prefer to stick with the "billable item" added to coming invoice feature as in WHMCS is because my Merchant will charge me additional fees for any other invoice charged same cycle, same customer. I explain with an example: One of my services is VOIP. My customer has a plan for $39.99 / month. And customer used some minutes beyond the allowable with the monthly plan, then the amount for the excess is just $ 1.78. Then, If I let the automation do this at the billing date, an additional invoice for the excess will be charged separate, so customer will get 2 charges in the CC (39.99 and 1.78) and Merchant will charge the typical small fee per transaction too. Billable item in my actual server works like this (all through automation, API connection and CRON JOB): Same example as above, but my server via a CRON JOB at midnight BEFORE the billing date send the $1.78 billable for the minutes beyond the plan to the WHMCS database as a billable item to be added to the coming invoice. Then billing date has come, and at 9 am, an invoice is created (via automation) with both included : 39.99 + 1.78 (in a separate line with the description "additional minutes"). CC is charged then $41.77, one charge for same customer for that cycle. I don't intervene in this process since everything is done via the CRON JOB and API. Otherwise, I had to do this manually every month, every billing date for all customers to add the excess amount to every invoice created for them not collected yet. With a "billable item" feature similar to the one that WHMCS has, an API command via CRON JOB could add that overuse to the coming invoice. This could be useful for Hosting services too (metered Bandwidth, etc.)

-Bump- for point 2 and 3. I don't use QUANTUM Vault anymore since I switched to STRIPE, and I see you have STRIPE module already. I would love to see the "privacy protection" for those using LOGICBOXES (ResellerCLub) Module (point 2 above), and the "BILLABLE ITEMS" to be added to Next Invoice Feature (as point 3 above).

Hi, I am an old user of WHMCS, and I know the following 3 features are present on that platform. I had purchased Blesta some time ago, but I haven't been able to use it due to some missing features I need. I have written about the first of the requests below in the forums, and the other 2 requests are suggestions on my particular case, which will make BLESTA complete enough for my needs: --------------- 1) CDG commerce Merchant - Quantum Gateway VAULT version (tokenization)- Module https://www.blesta.com/forums/index.php?/topic/925-quantum-gateway-vault/ http://dev.blesta.com/browse/CORE-852 ---------- 2) LOGICBOXES (ResellerCLub) Module : to allow adding "configurable option: PRIVACY PROTECTION" I saw a workaround by editing the logicboxes.php file, but didn't work on my case (tested on Blesta 4.10). It makes the "Manage/Editing Services" page under the customer records totally Blank after hitting the "SAVE" button. https://www.blesta.com/forums/index.php?/topic/10371-how-to-add-privacy-protection-to-logicboxes-module/ (Thanks -Blesta Addons- for the contributed coding) ------------- 3) BILLABLE ITEMS: added to Next Invoice created (as I do in WHMCS). For those who Bill bandwidth used in excess of the monthly plan, or for example VOIP services I run a CRON to add that Billable Service Excess of the plan (bandwidth, minutes, etc) per month/cycle to the billing system so it's stored in the Database until the Next Cron generates the regular recurring invoice for that particular Customer, so the "billable item pre-recorded" can be added to that new generated INVOICE. This feature is called "Billable Items" in WHMCS, and accepts entries via API. I found this but no updates: https://www.blesta.com/forums/index.php?/topic/13849-adding-usage-items-from-external-api-to-invoice/ --------------- Any update to these points will make my transition to Blesta final. Thanks

(bump) Today more than ever need to migrate from WHMCS and start using my blesta installation, but all my customers (let's say 90%) are set on quantum Vault (off site credit card info saved, with automatic renewal) Any update on this?

Hi. Just to know. I installed the 3.0.1 version succesfully. I'm still on tests to learn how it works (since I am more familiarized with WHMCS). So, Before beginning the migration of info to Blesta, I wanted to know if BLESTA 3, in addition of QUANTUM GATEWAY plugin, would have ability to use also the CDG Quantum VAULT gateway version? I mean, using just TOKENIZATION, to use their vault DB rather than storing the CC encrypted on Blesta DB, for recurring automatic billing/payments. I know WHMCS does that (since they have 2 separate plugins, one for REGULAR Quantum and other for QUANTUM VAULT, same scenario like Authorize.net AIM, ARB, CIM, etc) In case Blesta doens't support that yet, will it be added at least in the near future / update? BTW, I use to have 2 kind of customers, one that accept automatic recurring charges to their CC, and the other group prefers to pay MANUALLY each cycle with no automation, so That's why I use both services: Vault-Token and Regular Gateway in same Billing platform (WHMCS for now) Thanks for your response.
