| I would like a number of improvements for customizing invoices.
1. Possibility to have several different customized invoices. The different types
of invoices would be triggered by country of the customer and/or the payment
type. Personally I would like to have one for Norwegian customers and two for
international customers.
2. More possibilities (or easier for us non-programmers) to customize invoices;
ability to put in shop logos, background pictures, font types, font sizes…
3. Option for sending out the invoices as pdf files in an email. This file could
also be linked to the order, and be accessible from the order summary page for
both seller and buyer.
4. Possibility to have some text at the top or bottom of each page of the
invoice, and page numbering. Actually I would like the possibility to have all
the text except for the Items in order list and the sums of the order list on
each page.
5. Option to have the part number on the Items in order list.
6. Items in order list: Have the part no, text, quantity, price and total price
for each item in separate columns.
7. Add the possibility to issue a full or partial credit note when cancelling
orders or when removing items from orders that has been invoiced. Personally
as a professional seller it is now too much manual work, and I need to involve
my (expensive) accountant to get things correct for my accounting. As with invoices
there should be possible to have several customized credit notes.
8. Add option for auto numbering of invoices. This is a legal requirement in
many countries. The number sequence must be seller specific and count up for
each invoice or credit note. The seller must have the possibility to set the
starting number in the sequence.
I think it is long overdue to have Bricklink invoices look more professional
than what currently is possible. If some of the above is possible today, please
improve the help section so that it easier to find out how to do things.

| I strongly disagree with #2 and #3. I want standardized text invoices, no fancy
graphics or PDFs with each store having its own style. By saving all the text
file invoices, I'm able to locate (grep, etc.) any purchase instantly, and
much more.

Since no one else has mentioned it much of this is possible now. Understood
you would like the help to point at it better.

By payment method is comprehensive, I have this set up and it is a time saver.
As far as I can tell there is only one international separation available now.
If it was just text to change you could have both listed and try to remember
to delete one or the other sections.
Many of these can be used in the post purchase message too. If there were more
conditional tags added a simple pay after order system would not be that hard
to set up for many things.
