2/ Advanced invoices and PDF documents

In the Apps section of your account, install the PDF documents application.

This application enables to create templates (in .odt) for your printing documents (invoices, quotations...).
These templates can be created from your text editor (Libre office, Word…) and are using codes (available in the application documentation) to set up the content of your document.
You can download some standard templates.

You can create several different templates for your quotations, purchase orders, delivery notes, invoices…
You can completely customize the document with a specific size (A4, A5, 3-1/8”…) and add any other data like terms of sale.

To print your document in PDF from a sale, select the template in the Action drop down-menu (at the top right corner of the sale).
In 'Settings/Printing/Invoice PDF A4', you can select one of your templates as the default PDF A4 document to be printed when you click on the 'PDF A4' button in a sale.

3/ Generate automatically your PDF document

You can generate automatically your PDF document with a PHP script.

Here is an example of this script. You need to enter:

• a Token: available in the PDF documents application on your account (Apps section),
• a Template: name of the template used among templates created in the PDF documents application,
• an Account: name of your account,
• a Sale-no: the sale number for which you want to generate the document.
