Printing Sales Invoices

When a sales invoice is "In Progress", you can preview it in PDF format. When a sales invoice is "Complete", you can preview and print it in both HTML and PDF format.

To print a sales invoice in HTML format:

1. Navigate to the detail page for the sales invoice you want to print. See Viewing Sales Invoice Lists for more information.
2. Click Print. If you don't see this button, either switch to Classic Edition or ask your administrator to add this custom button to Extended Edition. A new browser window opens with the contents of the sales invoice in a print-ready format. A print event is logged in the event logTells you when an invoice or credit note was printed or sent by email, and who printed/sent it. Not used for mass email communications..
3. Print the invoice using your browser's print option. Remember to set an appropriate paper orientation before sending to the printer.

To print the document in Adobe PDF format, navigate to the detail page as before, then click Print PDF instead. Print the document using the browser's Print option.

To preview the document, without creating a print event in the event log, click Preview (HTML) or View PDF instead. When the sales document has a status of "In Progress" and you preview it using the View PDF button, the word 'DRAFT' is shown as a watermark on the PDF. See Customizing the DRAFT watermark if you want to know how to change the watermark.

You can print a document any number of times, but only those events initiated with the Print or Print PDF button are logged.

In Extended Edition you may need to ask your administrator to add these custom buttons to your page layout.
