creating an invoice that can have items added

[bhag]

I'm not sure exactly where this needs to get posted.

I am trying to create an invoice that allows you to keep adding items to it. There will be a button taking you to a screen where you choose what is to be added to the next line of the invoice. The invoice will be automaticaly updated with the new item. This will be for creating printing invoices. Here is an example. I create a new invoice and select add quote. I am then taken to a screen where I enter 1000 prints on 80# cover stock etc.... I am then returned to the invoice and it is automaticaly updated. Then I click the add item button again and am taken through the same process.

Does this make sense?

I understand how to do most of this but the question I have is how do get the invoice to automatically update.

If anybody has any better ideas let me know.

Thanks

There is many ways to invoicing. One of thems is the classic method which contains Invoice file with relation to lineitem file. In this solution you dont need to update invoice after adding new line.

That sounds like it will work.

Could you give me an idea of how that is done.

Just select the option "allow creation of records via relationship" in your define database. Have the fields in your portal and simply type into the last line will add it automatically.

Hi Bhag -

I am setting up a similar database and am wondering if you can help me out with something. I see you have two tables for your invoicing. What relationship did you create between the two? Do you have unique identifiers in both tables?

Appreciate your help!
