Send only PAID invoices by email

[WebPlus]

HI,

All our clients have saved billing infos (CC / IBAN) on their accounts.
We have proforma invoices turned on for some legal reasons and we need to keep them on.
The thing is, a proforma invoice is created before every cycle and sent out via email to customers "An invoice has been create".

Is there a way to prevent sending invoices to customers with payment infos saved on their account since they payments are automatically captured and send ONLY paid invoices to customers ?

Thnaks in advance

if ALL your clients have saved billing info, then couldn't you just disable the "Credit Card Invoice Created" and/or "Invoice Created" email templates...

the proformas would still be generated, but not automatically emailed to clients... once the invoice is paid, then they'll get sent an email using one of the appropriate "Invoice Confirmation" email templates.

Hi @brian!,

I should have say "most of our customers" instread of "all".
Some of them pay by wire && || check.

Your reasoning is great, and your input very valuable, thanks.

Then EmailPreSend action hook is the way to go. Return abortsend = true depending on the selected payment method. Of course run it on only for the specific Email Templates you want to stop.

Hi @Kian, thanks for your input. Yes I think I figured it out and asked for a quotation.
If you want, you can submit yours if interested.
