How can I get the value of a custom property that is defined at the "Product level" to display in the confirmation email sent to the customer?

v7 and earlier

Create a CUSTOMVAR called DELIVERY for example (Advanced | Custom Properties) and define it for each product.
To do this click on the 'Properties' tab on a product and the click the '+' symbol in the upper left hand corner to
create a new row. Click within the 'Property' field and select the CUSTOMVAR from the dropdown list, and then
define a value and then select 'Use as CUSTOMVAR'.

Now to get the CUSTOMVAR value to display on the email that is generated (server side) to confirm the order, you
will have to do the following.

Edit OrderScript.pl
Search for '# Add product line', you should see...

#
# Add product line
#
MailOrderLine( $$pProduct{REFERENCE},
$$pProduct{NAME},
$$pOrderDetail{QUANTITY},
$CurrentItem{'PRICE'},
$CurrentItem{'COST'},
$nDescriptionColumnWidth,
@TableFormat
);

change the above to...

#
# Add product line
#
MailOrderLine( $$pProduct{REFERENCE},
$$pProduct{NAME} . " Delivery:" . $$pProduct{CUSTOMVARS}{DELIVERY},
$$pOrderDetail{QUANTITY},
$CurrentItem{'PRICE'},
$CurrentItem{'COST'},
$nDescriptionColumnWidth,
@TableFormat
);

Save and Exit

The delivery message will now appear after (or under if necessary) the product description in the email e.g.
'Sample Product Delivery:April'
