Electronic Invoicing

[rush_woman]

Is there an add-on for an "electronic invoicing" option? In the nearly 7 years I used ZC, I have had perhaps 6 orders pay with PayPal. I would like to offer an electronic invoice through my alternate card processor, perhaps even replacing the "check/money order" option which no one has used. I considered changing the option to read "Electronic Invoice" but the blurb in the order confirmation proving an address for payment would also need to be removed.

Thanks,

Look in the plugins area at the top of the page; there's a contribution called "Invoice" that you might try.

Thank you for directing me to this invoice add-on. I have not tried to install it or anything yet. I have a question based on the simple description.

As I understand it, the module allows me to invoice customers that I place in an invoicing group. My question is: if I want all customers to be able to select the invoice option, I would move all customers into that group? If yes, how would I allow a new customer to have access to invoicing on their first purchase?

Thanks

To remove the restriction that users must be in the invoice group, edit includes/modules/payment/invoice.php.
Delete the function update_status (lines 47-71). Replace with:

    function update_status() {
// disable the module if the order only contains virtual products
      if ($this->enabled == true) {
        if ($order->content_type != 'physical') {
          $this->enabled = false;
        }   
      }   
    }
