making a billing invoice
« on: August 08, 2015, 12:51:39 PM »
Here's what I would like to be able to do:

As an administrator acting on behalf of a customer need a way to take a phone order for an account holder  all the way thru to  just before payment.  And then either have the customer log into their account to complete the confirmation and pay,  or email them the invoice which has a link back so they can pay.

What I need is some way to have an option for payment as "billing" or "Phone Order" with a condition of waiting payment.    This option of billing should not be seen on the payment selection by the customers,  but available to the admin.

Am I missing some thing that is already available within the cart to do this?

Or do I need to see about making a way to do this?  I didn't see anything in marketplace extensions that seemed to do this.

thanks in advance for your feedback
Lee

What you are looking for is not yet available.
What I understand you need is a "Quote a Customer feature"
It is possible to implement as an extension.

I see it as following.
1. You create and order for customer with some status (example: "To be paid")
2. Customer will get an email with the link to payment stage or access this under account.
3. After payment is done, order status changes and normal process starts after that.

Thanks for the feedback.  I didn't think I had missed anything.  We will get busy shortly and see about an extension, thanks for the direction you nailed it.

Cheers,
