Introduction
What Vite Invoice does, how it fits into WooCommerce, and what is included in the free plugin and in Vite Invoice Pro.
Vite Invoice creates PDF invoices for your WooCommerce orders. You set it up once. After that, WooCommerce creates the order, Vite Invoice creates the invoice, and WooCommerce sends it to your customer with its own emails.
The free plugin, Vite Invoice, covers everything a store needs to invoice its orders. It also includes ZATCA e-invoicing for Saudi Arabia, Phase 1 and Phase 2. Vite Invoice Pro adds more document types and tools on top.
How it works
- A customer places an order in your store.
- When the order reaches the status you choose, for example Processing, Vite Invoice creates the invoice and gives it a number.
- The PDF is saved in a protected folder on your server.
- If you turn it on, the PDF is attached to WooCommerce's order emails.
- Your customer can download it from My Account, and you can open it from the order screen or the Invoices list.
One order gets one invoice. A number is given once and never changes, even when you regenerate the PDF.
