iWHMCS is the Official iPhone Addon for WHMCS.
Please see http://www.whmcs.com/iphoneapp.php for more information on it.
Setup Instructions
1. If you haven't already, to begin with you will need to order the iPhone addon from our client area. It's available as an addon to a license and can be ordered by logging into our client area @ www.whmcs.com/members/clientarea.php and selecting "View Available Addons" from the navigation bar.
2. Next, you'll need to download the iWHMCS app from the Apple iTunes App Store which you can do by searching for iWHMCS or using this link to take you directly there: http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/iwhmcs/id343647658?mt=8
3. Once downloaded, simply sync your phone to install the app as normal
4. Now locate and open the app on your iphone's home screen
5. The first time you start it, you'll be asked to enter your authentication details. These consist of your WHMCS URL, admin username & password and an access key.
6. The WHMCS URL should be the URL to the frontend (client area), for example "http://demo.whmcs.com/" or "http://www.yourdomain.com/whmcs/" and the admin username & password the same as you use to login to the main admin area.
7. The access key is slightly more complicated. For this, you need to open up the configuration.php file for your WHMCS installation and add a line to it such as the one below:
$api_access_key = "abc123";
The abc123 in the above should be replaced with a random series of letters and numbers, and that same value is what you'll need to enter into the Access Key field of the iWHMCS configuration screen.
8. Then simply click Save and the connection will be tested. If any of the details were entered incorrectly you'll receive an Access Denied (username/password failure) or Invalid Access Key error message and be returned to re-enter the details.
9. If all was correct, you'll be taken straight to the homepage overview.
