Dumb Question Time:

As a seller, can I set an order at PROCESSING, send the Invoice, and receive
payment under that status ???

Sometimes when I receive a complicated order, I do prefer to send the Invoice
BEFORE I have picked and packed the order and set it to READY.

This was never a problem before On-Site Payment. Now, I am not so sure.

Thanks for your helpful answers.

A-HA !!

The buyer I invoiced just made payment successfully while the order was at PROCESSING.
Now, the status is happily at PAID.

If I had only waited a few more minutes, I would have been able to answer my
own question.

I will leave the message up in case other sellers have wondered the same thing.


Now for something completely different.

If that can help...

Since 2006 I send the Invoice - or use Auto Checkout - always BEFORE picking.

From time to time, you may encounter and glitch in your calculation and lose
a dollar or a couple; but that's FAR better than processing orders for free
and eventually put them back in stock if cancelled

Order status doesn't matter for payment, it depends if the order is invoiced
or not.
