Net Terms

[satexas]

I have both invoice payers, and check payers.... so I'm using "net30" terms.

 

How:

 

1. Set all accounts to have their invoices due on the "28th" of each month

2. Generate Invoices 27 days before "due date (Makes them generate on the 1st).

3. Set credit card to bill 26 days before "due date (Makes them bill on the 2nd if Credit Card payer).

 

... basically, that works. Looks funny, but works. (Would be unncessary if each "payment option" created could have a custom "net" date set to it)

 

Ok, first issue.. I have to use "28" days, not 30, because if Feburary 29th (etc) is missing, WHMCS screws up and sets the users due date to "00/00/00". Major flaw if nobody ever sees it... you lose money, accounts messed up, etc. Major flaw.

 

Second major issue... invoices (both in email and pdf) are tattoo'd with "invoice period"... causing confusion.

 

Example line from invoice:

 

Standard Hosting (EnKompass / SiteAdmin) - domain.com (08/28/2011 - 11/27/2011) $30.00 USD

 

.... it REALLY IS 08/01/2011 - 9/30/2011, but due to the 28 days thing, it says that. I'd LOVE to just flat out remove that listing, or somehow have it do math where it scales that back TOO.. but I can't.

 

Advice?
