"Auto Credit Applying" enabled... but not for every invoice


Remitur

Recommended Posts

Hello.
I've "Auto Credit Applying" enabled ("Tick to disable automatically applying credit from a users available credit balance when generating invoices"), so if a domain is in auto-renew mode, a proforma is created and (if the customer has sufficient funds) immediately paid and the domain renewed.
Nice, it works great.

But sometimes I may need to manually create an invoice, which I don't want to be paid authomatically: I want the customer see it and decide to pay it (using the credit or other way: it doesn't matter).

The only way I've found is this:

  • go to client profile, select "manage credits"
  • insert a fake "remove credit" in order to bring user credit to 0
  • issue the invoice
  • come back to "manage credits" and delete the fake "remove credit" movement

It works, but it's tricky and far from being "error proof"... so I wonder if any other way exists to do it.

By default, any available credit on a users account will be automatically applied to new recurring invoices immediately upon generation.

You can turn this off in Setup > General Settings > Credit by toggling the Automatic Credit Use setting to off.

i've just manually created an invoice (not recurring) to a test client who has a balance and it didn't automatically pay the invoice when I sent the email...

You're right!

But I experienced different WHMCS behaviour:

  • if you manually create an invoice, it keeps standing unpaid
  • but if you add a "billing entry" in a ticket and invoice it immediately, WHMCS marks it "paid" immediately using the available credit

(I'm not completely sure that last is a full WHMCS behaviour, or id it' Katamaze's billing extension's reponsability... I'll need to check)
