  1. Lol so you have to click create, so what happens to a invoice does that have to be manual creation... It sounds really pointless to re-create a service, if someone cancelled it they didn't want it. If they didn't pay for it then they ovs don't want it otherwise they would have paid for it. 

     

    You can hit create and set the next due date accordingly and an invoice will automatically be generated on the next cron run. Or you can do it manually as you say.

     

    I think it has its uses (I've used it many times on previous installs) and would be a great addition to Blesta.

  2. This would really work both ways though. If this route was adopted you're going to see hundreds if not thousands of these little 'addons' over time for every little feature that it'll become a pain.

     

    I think Paul and his guys know the fine line between a useful feature and what can be kept out so we shouldn't have to worry, hopefully :).

  3. That is the RAA - the agreement they signed see:

     

    The version of RAA (Registrar Accreditation Agreement) indicated after each registrar name designates which contract they have signed with ICANN. The 2009 RAA indicates that the registrar has signed the 2009 Registrar Accreditation Agreement, which provides enhanced protections for registrants and an increased level of accountability for registrars. The 2001 RAA is an older contract with fewer protections. Prospective registrants may want to take this fact into account when selecting a registrar for their gTLD name(s). The RAA version is not an indication of how long the registrar has been ICANN accredited.

    These sources date back early 2005:

  4. Really shocked at the number of people using AWBS, didn't expect that at all!

     

    We too are looking for AWBS migration solutions with 2 installs running. It's been good to us but time to move on to Blesta!

     

    If you really wanted to get to Blesta quickly you could try AWBS -> WHMCS -> Blesta (or wait for a module). If you do be sure to test it first considering the nature of a billing system and it's importance to your business :).

  5. (I think there are actually quite a few people still using AWBS.  After all.. why not?  At one time they had a very large user base, and there really hasn't been any reason for all those users to switch to anything else.  The reason the forums are dead are because it's bug-free, stable, software that already has all the features people need. There's little reason to visit the forums and post.)

     

    Why not? Because it is not maintained and things move on regardless of how stable it is today :). The core code may be extremely stable / bug free but server software is being updated regularly, API changes are being made by companies out of AWBS's control such as Payza and Skrill, Nominet etc

     

    Sooner or later you will have to move to another system (unless they actually start supporting the project again) so if you're running a business, it might be worth investing into having a migration module built whilst your business is still working.

     

    You could play with a double migration though. AWBS -> WHMCS -> Blesta. I'd be sure to thoroughly test it though as things may get messy / break :P

  6. Pretty sure this would be against PayPal's TOS. You can't offer cheaper prices to customers to use a gateway other than PayPal, nor can you charge customers an extra fee to cover the cost of PayPal fees. Pricing across all gateways is supposed to be the same. 

     

    Also what do you mean stripes fees are lower? Stripe is 2.9% + 30 cents. Paypal is also 2.9% + 30 cents

     

    According to a thread on another forum, PayPal recently changed it's stance on this. You can charge more for PayPal as long as you ensure the client is aware of it.

     

    Would be nice to get that verified though.
