| − | Whilst most invoice design settings are self-explanatory and do have a small description attached to assist you with how to use a particular design, some design settings may need a little bit extra documentation where the implementation rules are not able to be adequately described in a small description text field.

| − | This design setting only accepts a positive number. This design setting can be referenced in other design settings. (eg. Automated Payment Text) <br />
| |
| − | This value will be used in the (''Invoice Due Date less Days Offset'') calculation to determine the value of the <code>:p_auto_payment_date</code> output.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Automated Payment Text ==
| |
| − | If the payment method is Direct Debit or Credit Card, the text contained in this setting, along with a small solid border will be included directly below the "Account Details" section of a standard invoice layout (''this position may vary if you have a custom invoice layout'').
| |
| − | The following variables can be placed inside the automated payment text field and will be expanded out to real values when an invoice is rendered.
| |
| − | {| class="wikitable"
| |
| − | |-
| |
| − | | :p_surcharge || Where a customer has either either % or $ based additional finance charges (surcharges), the system will print the value of those here. See [[Admin/Payment Details]]
| |
| − | |-
| |
| − | | :p_payment_method || This will either print 'credit card' or 'direct debit' - depending on the customer (Automated) Payment Method setting. See [[Account Management/Customer Screen/Payment Methods]]
| |
| − | |-
| |
| − | | :p_days_offset || This field only accepts a positive number. This value will be used in the (''Invoice Due Date less Days Offset'') calculation to determine the value of the <code>:p_auto_payment_date</code>. <br />
| |
| − | Note: It is not mandatory to reference this particular variable in the Automated Payment Text design setting. If it is referenced, only the stored value will print in its place. <br />
| |
| − | (eg. If the value is '2', then only the literal number '2' will print out on an invoice)
| |
| − | |-
| |
| − | | :p_auto_payment_date || Used in conjunction with <code>:p_days_offset</code>. Can only be reference in the Automated Payment Text design setting text field.<br />
| |
| − | This is not an invoice design setting of its own, rather it is a simple variable to indicate you wish the system to perform a calculation (''Invoice Due Date less Days Offset'') and print the resulting date in the format 'DD Mon YYYY' - (eg. '''18 Oct 2017'''). <br />
| |
| − | Special Note: If <code>:p_days_offset</code> has never been set, then this variable will print out as the literal characters they are. See last example below.

| − | An example usage of this design setting is to indicate to customers when an automated payment will be attempted. Customers typically match the [[Account Management/Customer Screen/Payment Methods | Automated Payment Terms (Days)]] to the <code>:p_days_offset</code> design setting.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * The following Automated Payment Text design setting value represents a typical scenario <br />
| |
| − | <pre>A payment via :p_payment_method will be attempted :p_days_offset days prior to the due date on :p_auto_payment_date. This payment will incur a surcharge of :p_surcharge</pre>

| |
| − | | |
| − | * The value of <code>:p_days_offset</code> will change the way this output looks. Using an Invoice Due Date of 20/OCT/2017, the following examples indicate the calculation difference.
| |
| − | * It is important to note, that a missing <code>:p_days_offset</code> value (ie. ''you have never entered a value before'') will mean <code>:p_auto_payment_date</code> will print out literally - rather than substituting with a calculated date.
