You can now create very simple invoices for each of your projects. To help manage this facility, a couple of extra fields have been added to the Project section.

Project Details > ‘Purchase Order No.’

Finance Details > ‘Invoice Date’ and ‘Invoice Number’

An extra section has also been added under the ‘finance’ navigation, ‘invoice settings’. This is where you define whether to charge tax, as well as the name and rate of the tax applied. Any rate applied is applied to the ‘Amount Charged’ field.

To start the process, click ‘produce invoice’ under the Project’s ‘Financial Details’ section.

This displays a text box into which you can add the Invoice Wording. You also have the choice of whether to display the pdf in the browser, or download it.

Hit Submit, and you’re done !

Thanks to Toby James Creative for the suggestion.

After adding the facility to upload your own logo for inclusion on pdf documents, I thought it might be nice to display this as a permanent element, so that you can make adderuppa your adderuppa.

Ok, it’s very subtle, but it’s a start …

You can now upload your logo to your account so that it will be added to your Project PDFs. Logos can be uploaded via ‘account > Account Settings’.

A couple of additions have been made to the Produce a Project PDF page.
1. A ‘Select All’ checkbox has been added
2. ‘Viewing Preferance’, to indicate whether you would like to view the created pdf in the browser, or download it.

Mozilla Firefox seems to dislike downloading too many of the dynamically created Project Pdfs in quick succession. It starts the download process and then freezes part way through.

Until I’ve located the reason for this behaviour, I thought I’d share a workaround that I discovered.

First, cancel the download by clicking the cross button.

Then retry the download.

For some reason that I haven’t had time to explore just yet, the download completes without a problem.
