Re: [Ledger-smb-devel] Next step for invoice upload (2)
Hi, This does sound potentially useful for us as well, with two possible adjustments: 1. Partial shipments... perhaps an interface similar to Cash - Vouchers - Receipts, something to drill down into line-item detail and specify a qty to move to an invoice, leaving the balance on the sales order (or optional checkbox to close the order?) 2. Notes field. Our scenario: twice a month we do invoicing for hourly work, always against open sales orders. Our sales order Notes contains more info about payment terms, and our invoice notes list work actually completed. We invoice against sales orders, and rarely close them out. This model would be useful for combining two open sales orders for a client at the time of invoice, too. On the AP side, we use transactions far more than invoices, so for us a bulk upload should be able to match a template transaction and populate that as a draft...
