What this helps you do
View an issued customer document, print it, save its PDF, or email it to the customer.
Before you start
Open a completed order, not a draft order. The order must have an issued document. Emailing also requires a customer email address and permission to manage invoices.
Steps
- Open Orders and select the order.
- Find the document button near the top of the order or the document's row farther down the page.
- Open its actions menu.
- Select Open / print to open the PDF and use your browser's print controls.
- Select Download to save the PDF to your device.
- Select Email to customer to send it to the email address saved on the order.
If an order has more than one original document, Upstorr can open, download, or email the group together.
Download several orders
- Open Orders and select up to 250 real orders.
- Select Download documents at the top of the page.
- Wait for the spinner in that button to finish.
The ZIP contains one PDF per selected order. Keep the page open until the download finishes; larger batches take longer. If the download is interrupted, retry it. Each PDF includes that order’s sale documents and available adjustment and security-deposit receipts. Downloading does not add loading text or spinners to the table rows.
Before preparing the download, Upstorr checks the document records. It can restore missing saved details on older invoices when the order’s saved amounts match the original invoice. Existing invoice numbers, dates and amounts stay unchanged. If the saved records disagree, contact support rather than recreating the order.
What happens next
Opening or downloading does not change the order. Emailing sends the issued document to the customer saved on that order.
Customer-facing email subjects and PDF filenames use the readable order number, such as Tax Invoice for order #1015 and tax-invoice-order-1015.pdf. The document's official invoice, receipt, credit-note, or debit-note number remains printed inside the PDF.
Custom documents have the same three actions. Their PDF is created from the custom design and that order's information.
Common problems
- Email to customer is unavailable: add an email address to the customer or ask a staff member with invoice-management permission.
- No document button appears: draft orders do not have original issued documents.
- The PDF does not open: allow the browser to open the document, then try again.
- The document download was incomplete: try the download again. Upstorr rejects a broken or incomplete ZIP instead of saving it as if it succeeded.
- The document details look old: issued documents keep their historical information; changing today's template does not rewrite them.
