Billing software beta

I've been playing with this software on and off for a little while and I think it's ready for some public opinions (and complaints!).. If you're interested in beta testing some billing software please check out Kapital at http://www.kapital-billing.com.

Features:

Product, Customer and Invoice tracking.

PDF invoice generation, printing and emailing.

Real-time credit card charging through Plug N Pay or Verisign Payflow Pro with additional payment processor support planned for the near future.

Recurring billing for subscription based services with automatic CC charging and invoice emailing.

Requirements:

Though I think it will work on Windows 98 I'm probably only going to "support" 2k+, and I've only tested it well on XP Professional. Reports from users of 98/Me/2k will be welcomed!

Adobe Acrobat Reader must be installed to view the invoice/quote PDFs but not for generation.

Send bug reports and comments to kapital@ksoftware.net , please!

Thanks!

First start, it said that a file in c:\Documents and Settings\mitch\desktop\kapital didnt exist. I made the folder and put the file inthere, and now it works. It seems fine.

Same here !

It's looking for the sample company file on mitch's desktop ! ;)

I think it would be easier to distribute the file instead of having lots of customers connecting to your desktop ;) :lol:

Must be a default path thing, or something...

BTW, I didn't use the default install path, I chose my own !

Now I know why I've always avoided hardcoding locations in my programs. :)

Create the necessary directories, copy the file from the directory you installed Kapital in to the right directory, run Kapital, create a new company file, delete all the created directories you don't need anymore, and it will work...

Wow, that's quite a long sentence! :lol:

Ooops. I was stupid and saved my history in there! Remove kapital_history.pref and y'all should be good to go!

Sorry about that! New version uploaded...

Just one thing to mention after your improved version worked !

I just installed it and already it's telling me I only have 28 days left ! ?

Otherwise, quite nice !

Which RDBMS are you using ?

Edit: Forgot to mention, the bubble help for the User name in the payment page came up for one of the other tab titles ! Can't remember which :(
