Magento Modules for iart interactive

I created multiple Magento modules to fit specific needs for an Intranet implementation of Magento, which was used as a B2B. As the result of its use, some features like maintaining supplier information or searching for products of a specific supplier where not correctly supported. The new extension allowed the administrator to create different suppliers with all the supplier information, including logos and attachments. Afterward, the suppliers could be used in the product edition, making it possible to assign one or more suppliers for the product. On the front-end, a product supplier page was automatically generated based on the information provided, so you could see the suppliers for each product page and you could search by supplier. Another extension was created for the same project supported the ability to make and search the product reviews. Lastly, I built a separate module to give the ability to download cart contents as a Microsoft Office document format.

In the back-end, the salesmen also gets supports for the module, allowing him to check conflicts between orders depending on the time ranges and stocks of the items. Detailed information about the conflicts allows the salesmen to resolve them, either by changing dates, replacing products, changing stocks, or enabling him to find the most suitable alternative for the customer.

Magento Affiliate Future Export Extension

I designed an extension that facilitates the creation of export files compatible with the "Affiliate Future" file format. This export functionality can be initiated directly from the back-end menu, and all exported files can be conveniently accessed from the same location.

Understanding the need for automation, I accommodated the client's request to enable the execution of this export process via a URL. This feature allows for setting and modifying passwords directly from the back end, providing seamless integration with Cron job scheduling.

I also implemented a feature that allows access to the exported files without requiring back-end access. This is achieved through htpasswd protection, which can set the password from the back end, ensuring secure and efficient access to the exported files.
