Hi I was wondering if you could add two items to your todo list.... one being when someone makes a payment of lets say $12 to a bill thats a total of $32 it should say someplace what is left owing on that invoice.. rather than me having to grab a calculator.... often times someone might pay small amounts 20 times to pay off an invoice(I deal with a lot of money challenged people)

and the other thing is I seem to get quite a number of people that will give me $50 for a $40 bill and say just leave it as a credit.. it would be great if BI could keep track of this for me..

Humm.. I have my own suggestion. If there was a Textbox on Invoice generating page to enter something call “own payment: “[ ], this amount can be subtracted from total invoice amount automatically. I don’t think this is a big deal to your next version.

I created a new table right under the create invoice button. I am using it for advance payments received and also i using ‘-’ minus sign before entering the payments.

<table>
<tr>
<td><label><span><?php //echo $this->lang->line('invoice_quantity');?></span><input type="hidden" name="items[0][quantity]" size="3" value="1" onkeyup="recalculate_items();" /></label></td>
<td>

<label>
<input type="text" name="items[0][work_description]" id="work_description" value="Advance Payment” />
</label>
