− | = Overview = | |
− | The '''Invoice Delivery''' and '''Invoice Approval settings''' are two settings that control:
| |
− | * the method of which your invoices are sent

− | * whether invoices are automatically approved.
| |
| | | |
− | ''Invoice Delivery'' is controlled by the ''Invoice Method'' setting. This determines how invoices are sent to your customer. The invoice delivery method options are:

− | This method sends the invoice to the preferred email address of the billing contact of the account, and any other nominated recipients that are set up in the ''Invoice Delivery'' event template.
| |
| | | |
− | 2. '''Post'''<br />
| + | [https://resources.emersion.com/display/EKB/Invoice+Delivery+and+Approval Take me to the Emersion Knowledge Base article] |
− | This method sends the nominated recipient(s) of the ''Invoice Post'' event, a list of invoices to be printed out and posted to the customer.
| |
| | | |
− | 3. '''Do Not Send'''<br />
| + | [[file:new_home_sm.jpg|900px]] |
− | This method will leave the invoice approved but will not send the invoice to customers. When Emersion creates your service provider account during the start of the onboarding process, this is the default setting.
| |
− | | |
− | 4. '''Email and Post'''<br />
| |
− | This method combines the activities of 'Email' and 'Post' respectively.
| |
− | | |
− | The ''Auto Invoice Approval'' setting determines what happens to invoices when they are generated. When this setting is enabled, invoices that are generated are automatically ''Approved'' and handled in accordance with the invoice method setting above.
| |
− | | |
− | These two settings are known in Emersion as [[Accounts/Account_Attributes|''account attributes'']], meaning that the Service Provider can configure a default setting that will be automatically adopted (inherited) by new accounts, unless the setting is overridden at the customer level.
| |
− | | |
− | ''''!!! IMPORTANT !!!'''If you are currently implementing Emersion in your business, it is important that you do not enable the Auto Invoice Approval setting until you are ready to send out invoices. Until then, leave this setting as '''Do Not Send'''.
