Vtiger, resellers and varying product costs
If you are a distributor or manufacturer then you may be interested in our latest customization. The challenge was to create a way for users from different companies to interact with the same product data set. Our client manufacturers a niche product and is diligent in maintaining their inventory. They wanted to provide a way […]
Vtiger Historical Orders Widget
There are businesses that Boru works with that process a lot of orders (could be invoices or sales orders), and they need efficient ways to interact with those orders. We have created a vtiger summary view widget that displays orders that have already been completed, along with important information such as the order name, the […]
New Vtiger Payments Module
We had many client requests for a Vtiger payment module so we decided to create an app for this. We just released it to the public and are getting a nice response from the users. It is a great app at a very attractive price.
Vtiger UPS Tracking
We had a Vtiger customization request from a client to update the UPS delivery status in the invoice. The user puts the UPS tracking # in the Vtiger invoice and a cron job in vtiger controls how often UPS is checked for status updates. When there is a change in status, the tracking status field […]

Changing the size of the Font and Formatting of Numbers.
A problem that some people can encounter the size of the font in Vtiger not being big enough, and with other modules or widgets the display of numbers has the wrong format. We took on this issue and made a small but useful widget. With this widget, the user is able to change the size […]
Showing Cost on a Vtiger Purchase Order
A common vtiger customization we do is to update the Purchase Order to use cost. Vtiger standard shows the unit price from the product record — that is the price you would sell at not the price you will buy at (pay your supplier). So we add cost as a custom field, change the PO […]
