iMIS 10.5

Registering on Events without full payment (ibo for .net 10.5)

Has anyone know of, or implemented, a way to register people on events without payment? The 10.5 + 10.6 .net iBOs only allow fully paid by CC registrations. I'm very reluctant to create transactions as they could quite easily be viewed as fraudulant.

Background: we're running a conference, and we want to import the guest list and register them onto the various functions they've paid for, but ideallly leave them with balances. We'd then go through the list and actually process their CC/cash/cheques.

Hi all,

I was wondering if there is an option to enable E-mail redirecting to a single account to prevent Customers in the database from receiving test E-mails?

Thanks.

Adding a Contact to multiple chapters

Hello,

We're working on implementing a system in IMIS for billing customers for belonging to multiple chapters. However, it appears that IMIS only has functionality to support a member being part of a single chapter (as displayed from the drop down menu for Chapter, or the single Chapter column in the NAMES table). I was wondering if there is an option to enable joining multiple chapters at once, and if there is a system in place for tracking exactly how many Chapters a member is a part of.

Event Function Total registered Property

Is there a way to retrieve the Event Function Total Registered count from the .NET for IBOs? i tried to use that Actual Registered property but that didn't return the correct result. Thanks

Error: Row was not inserted. IBO ISSUE!

i am trying to update a record using an ibo. here's the official error message:

Error Index=1 ErrorNumber=3249 ErrorLocation=iboDataServer.CDataRequest.ExecUpdate ErrorCategory=3 ErrorMessage=Row was not inserted.

All i am doing is updating a few fields. it is initializing correctly and it finds the ID i pass to it. This does work for some people but not all. I have noticed that if i remove all records for a failed ID from the name_address table i can update w/out any trouble, but as soon as I try to update the name_address table it seems error out again.

IBO ERROR

I am getting this error when trying to update an existing account via an ibo.

ErrorMessage=Invalid Contact entry. 13258

The user exists in IMIS and was created in IMIS. The datasource connects correctly.

Here's what my code looks like.

Foreign Currency

Does anyone have experience/suggestions for work-around processes to handle foreign currency? I have a US client who is using the following process for acceptance of Canadian checks & credit cards from their Canadian members/customers. The process is working fine for them, but is time-consuming, so I wondered if there are any alternative methods.

Canadian amounts are determined based on the exchange rate on the day of payment -- but all are entered into iMIS as US Dollars. A customer record with ID "EXCHG01" has been created in iMIS for recording the gain or loss on the exchange rate.

Batching Process

I am working on a system review for a client who uses the following process for batching/reconciliation. Are there potential issues with their process of leaving batches open until the end of the month? They have not indicated any problems with this technique, but most of my clients post batches more frequently (daily or weekly), so I thought I'd get some feedback from those of you who are accounting gurus...

new member dues with ibo

I am working in vb.net framework 1.1 and I am trying to use the ibo for new member dues.

I have tried BillRegular and BillOptional with no luck.

Has anyone ever used the ibo with .net? If so would you be able to help with a piece of code or just some knowledge so I know it works?

Thanks in advance,

Jay Clarke
