Disable Automatic CC Processing by default

[redunculous]

When I create a new client I would like to have

 

Disable Automatic CC Processing

 

disabled by default - is this possible?

 

Thanks in advance

Billing Preferences section:

Billing Preferences - WHMCS Documentation

Disable CC Processing - Enabling this option will prevent invoices for this client due via a merchant gateway from being automatically attempted for capture - leaving the client to login and make payment manually for all invoices even with a credit card stored on file

Thank you but I would like to have this as a default - not something I manually change for every client, is it possible?

if you mean when adding a new client, you want the "Disable CC Processing" checkbox to be ticked by default, then I don't think you can...

 

perhaps another way to handle this would be to tweak your cron settings and disable auto cc processing there...?

Is there nothing here I can edit in the template?

Thanks for your response

You could write a hook that disabled it when a new client is added. I would use the Update_Client API function, and set the disableautocc attribute to true.

Needed this same thing and came across this thread. Got it working thanks to the information from SiteOx. Figured I'd add it here for posterity. Create the file /includes/hooks/disableautocc.php and add this code replacing the admin username with your own:

<?php

function hook_disable_auto_cc($vars) {

$command = "updateclient";
$adminuser = "admin";
$values["clientid"] = $vars['userid'];
$values["disableautocc"] = true;

$results = localAPI($command,$values,$adminuser);


}

add_hook("ClientAdd",1,"hook_disable_auto_cc");

?>

Hello towens,

 

Thank you for sharing this workaround. We always appreciate it when users share their solutions but I am obligated to remind everyone that these are not tested nor supported by WHMCS. Please test user submitted solutions before applying them in your production install of WHMCS.

 

--Thanks

just wanted to say thank you for the above

yes first add the php hook file

and then simply open phpmyadmin and run this to disable it on all "existing" clients to disable it for them also, hope it helps someone else

Update tblclients set disableautocc = '1';
