ODT Template Tags for VATRate and contact person

Using my Dolibarr
1

Hi Dolibarr-community,

I am new to Dolibarr and want to use this system because it is still easy in use, workflow implemenatation and operating within my IT environment. But what drives me crazy is the finding of Tags I can use in ODT templates. Most of them are described and working fine. But I am looking for
- VATRate in % for proposals and invoices (such as “Más 7% IGIG:” - the value for that I found - I tried {object_total_localtax1} but it is wrong because I don have additional local tax)
- Contact for Thirdparties (Customers) means title (salutation), first and lastname of the guy who is responsible on customerside.

This are the only missing in my templates. Does anybody knows which tags for this is provided?

Thanks much for your help.

Saludos

Joerg

Hi Jörg,

if you use the vat of a defined product/service you can easily use the tag “{line_vatrate}” (if in a table), otherwise probably {object_vatrate}.

The contact is pretty straightforward as well, just use “{contact_fullname}”.
It works with invoices, but I’m trying to get it running with proposals.
Don’t forget to add a contact associated with the partner (company) and add it as a contact in the invoice as well (tab contacts within your invoice).
So the full address block would be something like this:

{company_name}
{contact_fullname}
{company_address}
{company_zip} {company_town}

Unfortunately I’m trying to insert a salutation depending on the gender, maybe you have an idea? (Sehr geehrte/Sehr geehrter).

Cheers
Bernd

Update

I found out my issue with the proposal: You have to select a contact for the proposal and for the invoice specificly.

Hi Bernd,

thank you for your help. I tried the {object_vatrate} for proposals and it doesn’t really works for me. But I need to be honest - I didn’t tried out again because my current client do not need to pay VAT cos of the tax system. But I will try again.

Thanks

Joerg
