Hi everyone and thanks for reading!
I've been handed a freelance job to make a purchase order system for an interior designer. Currently whenever they run out of stock they use a spreadsheet to generate a fax like page, print it and then fax it off. She now wants this system updated and to send via emails instead of fax.
The one particular problem I'm having trouble grasping a solution to is the actual purchase order. The purchase order needs to be sent and then stored in a database for future reference, that seems easy enough but the problem is the contents of the actual order. I've attached a screenshot.
As you can see the client has a large spacious table-like area to type in what they need, but I'm wondering how I would offer this to the client in an on-line system, and also if there would be a way of coding some sort of "add more items" or "remove items" to add or delete some lines.
I'm just looking for some guidance as to how I will go about recreating this sort of easy to fill in form, or something that offers similar flexibility. I'm hoping the solution will be easy enough to put into a mail() and also store in a database!
Thanks in advance,
Anthony
