Question

Setting an invoice to be sent on a later date

Hello,

I have seen this question asked a few times now, and the response is always to create a recurring transaction. I would like to start this off by saying this is not what I am asking for.

I have applied credits to invoices that are meant for future months. These invoices are not fully paid, so they still need to be sent out at the beginning of that month for payment completion as we bulk send invoices on the 1st of each month. I need to be able to have this auto sent on a selected date (ie. the 1st of the following month). 

Is there a way to select a "future auto send date?" 
I repeat, this has nothing to do with setting up a recurring transaction. All of these invoices are already set up as recurring transactions to send on the first - but I am applying credits to future invoices by creating the invoice, and skipping the recurring auto create so that there are not two invoices created on the first. I just want the one I created to be sent on the 1st of the month automatically.

 

Thanks.
