    Default How to add Product Description to Receipt

    We are using ML 8.0.1.2

    On the current receipt, it just shows the product name. How can I add the product description - or at least part of it - on each line item?

    In other words, for each product we need to be able to display the contents of the product description that was filled in in the admin area for that product.

    You will need to alter the notification.receipt.xml.config file in the XmlPackages directory. Out of the box I don't think the query contains that info. You can see the 2nd query called OrderItems, that will need a join to the Product table and optionally to the ProductVariant table, if you have descriptions in there.

    Using MS 9.2.0.0 with the following customisations:

    Lightbox/Fancybox enlarged images;
    Auto-suggest searchbox;
    Extra product information shown only to our IP Address (such as supplier info, costs, etc.);
    Failed transactions emailed via trigger;
    Custom app to show basket contents when customer online;
    Orders pushed through to accounting systems.

    All the above without source!

    OK so I have made this change. But to be safe I want to use a different name for this xml file.

    How do I tell ASPDNSF to use my new, renamed xml file instead of the default one?

    Change the appconfig "XmlPackage.OrderReceipt"
