Klaus,

  My recommendation is to turn around your idea. Use a database back end
(postgres, for example) for your accounts receivable system. Then, when you
want to generate an invoice, feed the details to a LyX (or LaTeX) template
that prints the invoice for you. Dunning letters for overdue accounts also
would be created by LyX based on the results of a database query on the A/R
system.
