# The Invoice Request Page

To enable users to manually request an invoice, you can create a menu item of type Payage, Invoice Request. Payage applications can automatically find such a menu item (even if it's on a hidden menu) and build a direct link to it that can be included in text shown on a purchase confirmation page or in an email. It's also convenient to make the Invoice Request page available on a public menu so that buyers can return at a later date, enter their transaction ID, and print, or re-print, their invoice.

The menu item has options to include Top Text (above the form) and Bottom Text (below the form), so the page on your site might look something like the example here. A raw link without a transaction ID requires the user to enter their 32 character transaction ID (TID). It's possible to provide a link to the page with the TID already entered, for example:

```
https://www.yoursite.com/invoice-request?tid=c56038dd3ae5a7c199db144e46516786
```

If the page is requested via a link with a valid TID, the Transaction ID entry step is bypassed and the data entry form is shown, including any details already captured for the transaction. The user can update their details as many times as they like. Once they satisfy the minimum requirements, a Download button is shown, together with a warning that they won't be able to change their details once they download their invoice.

## The Invoice Request Page Without PDF Enabled

If you haven't enabled the PDF option, or if your server doesn't meet the requirements of the PDF library, the Invoice Request page works a little differently. Instead of the Download button, a "Show Invoice" button appears. Clicking it shows the invoice in a new browser tab, where the user can print the invoice or save it as a PDF using their browser.

## No Changes After Invoice Creation

In all cases, once an invoice has been generated, the user cannot change their details and generate a new invoice. If a buyer needs to make a change, they must contact you, and you must manually generate a credit note for the old invoice and manually issue a new one.
