Version 5

PDF Invoices

With the help of the free LADpdf plugin, which installs the open source DomPdf PHP library, Payage can now create PDF invoices:

  • The Invoice Request page now provides a "Download" button instead of the previous "Show Invoice" button, which required the user to use their browser to save the invoice as a PDF.
  • You can configure Payage to automatically create a PDF invoice file for every transaction, and retain them for a number of years.
  • You can configure Payage to automatically email the PDF invoice directly to the buyer.
  • The Invoice Request page now captures the Tax ID as a separate field.

Invoices can now include conditional text, i.e. text that is included or not depending on one or more variables.

Previously, buyers could use the Invoice Request page to change their details and create a new invoice. While this was useful for correcting minor errors, it could be misused and is no longer allowed. Now, once an invoice has been created, it cannot be changed by the buyer.

The Invoices section has all the details.

Other Enhancements

There are some new button layouts, and minor improvements to the existing layouts.
