What you’ll accomplish

A checked PDF or printout from the intended invoice version, ready for your authorized recipient.

Before you start

  • The intended order, draft quote, or saved version is accessible.
  • Save your edits first if the delivered document must be retained in Version history.
  • Know the intended recipient and use an approved email or document-delivery process.

1. Choose current output or a saved snapshot

  1. For a current invoice

    Open Orders or Draft Orders, find the correct row, and choose View invoice or Download PDF from its more-actions menu.

  2. For an earlier document

    Open Edit invoice > Version history and choose View or Download PDF on the exact named or numbered version.

  3. For the editor preview

    The live preview’s Download PDF can include unsaved edits. Use it for inspection, or save first if you need that document kept in history.

2. Download or print the document

  1. Download the PDF

    Choose Download PDF and wait for completion or a visible error. If it fails, use Retry download after reviewing the message.

  2. Print from the preview

    Choose Print PDF. Review the paper size, scale, margins, and pages in the browser’s print dialog before printing or selecting Save as PDF.

  3. Inspect the actual file

    Open the downloaded or browser-saved PDF and check every page for clipped content, missing fields, branding, and the intended version.

3. Set predictable download names

  1. Open PDF downloads in Settings

    Edit Order PDF filename format or Draft order PDF filename format. Order downloads default to Invoice-{invoice_number}-{company_name}.pdf; draft downloads default to Quote-{invoice_number}-{company_name}.pdf.

  2. Use supported placeholders

    Available placeholders are {invoice_number}, {order_number}, {company_name}, {customer_company}, {customer_name}, {version_number}, {version_name}, and {invoice_date}. company_name is your business name; customer_company is the billed company. Version placeholders apply to saved versions.

  3. Preview and save

    Check Filename preview or Draft order filename preview, correct unsupported or incomplete placeholders, and choose Save settings. Reset to default restores the standard format in the form; save the settings to retain it.

4. Produce several order invoices

  1. Select the intended orders

    On Orders, select the relevant rows. Select all orders on this page applies to the displayed page, so confirm the selected count before proceeding.

  2. Use the bulk action

    Choose Print selected invoices or Download selected PDFs. Clear selection removes the current selection.

  3. Review the result

    Confirm that the output contains only the intended order invoices and check the page boundaries before filing or sharing it.

5. Send the checked file through your own process

  1. Prepare the attachment

    Use the downloaded, reviewed PDF and confirm it belongs to the intended customer and version.

  2. Use your approved delivery tool

    Attach the PDF in your usual email or document-delivery tool, verify the recipient, and follow your business’s approval and privacy process.
