invoice PDF not updated

[PradeepC]

Hello,

While testing Upmind I came across a bug where once the invoice has been marked as paid manually and we download the invoice attached to the invoice, it shows as Unpaid with no mention of the transactions that have been performed on the invoice.

I do not know that how this works with a live payment gateway, but I think that the invoice should contain the transaction information as well as status should be updated to Paid. I think a simple re-generation of the PDF once the invoice is paid would do the trick.

The clients cannot be presented with an invoice that has PDF mentioning the invoice as Unpaid. The accounts team of the company will never accept an Unpaid Invoice.

This is because the invoice isn't regenerated (i.e. the PDF is already made) after payment

We just need to remove the invoice payment status from the invoice PDF

You can fix an individual invoice by regenerating.

@Seb the PDF is made when the bill is generated, and not after payment. I would suggest creating a PDF after the payment is made. That would be a better solution.

We need a PDF beforehand also -- it just needs to either be re-generated automatically on status change or the status left off

[PradeepC]

So what will be the solution? Should I switch off the status or regenerate PDF will be implemented?

[Seb]

We're going to roll a fix out on our end

[Seb]

Should be deployed now. Will apply to all newly generated PDFs

Thanks @Seb! So what exactly was done? Was the status removed or invoices with PAID status will be updated?

The status is removed for now on new invoices. We'll be adding in an option in the new year to refresh the invoices on status change.
