"Date Due" in email doesn't reflect change in invo

[steelkat]

I am preparing to set up a client with a new order (from the backend), so I am doing some testing first. If I change the due date on the invoice to seven days later than today, before I accept the order and generate the said invoice, the [DueDate] field in the "Invoice Created" email that is sent out after the invoice is generated always shows today's date, instead of the invoice due date I set to be seven days later.

 

But the invoice itself, in both the front and back end, shows the date due to be correct (seven days later).

 

Since this client is also a friend, as most of mine are and probably will be, I want to give them a little breathing room to make that first payment. I can take the [DueDate] field out of the email template, but I'm thinking it would be nice to be able to show the correct due date in the email.

 

Thanks to all,

 

Tommy

This sounds like an odd issue. Maybe be a stupid question, but are you sure the invoice created email was sent after you changed the due date and not before?

Maybe be a stupid question

Not with me involved!

 

Well, to be honest I'm not really sure about when the email is generated. It does work properly if I set the "Payment Method" to "Subscriptions", then set the "Next Due Date" to seven days (or whatever) later.
