Batch order status

When you need to change a lot of orders at once you can do that here. For exampe you need all your recurred orders to be processed or you want to send reminders for all your invoices that are paid too late.

Open the billing module, double click on your book and click at "Batch order status". The following screen appears:

Now you can change all orders that are in a particular status to another status and you have the following options:

  1. Notify customer
    When this is checked an e-mail will be sent to the customer. The e-mail is set in the status properties. It depends on the e-mail and PDF template associated with the order status. If you check this and the e-mail template is blank the process will fail. If the PDF template is set then a PDF will be attached to the e-mail.
  2. Change book date to today
    This can be useful when processing recurred orders. Some orders can be scheduled but they might be processed at a later time. This makes sure the date on the invoice is the current date.
  3. Update products from catalog
    Some annual fees or descriptions might have been changed. By checking this box you will update product price and description from the catalog.

The orders that are changed will be stored. You can Print or Export these orders. The CSV format of the export file can be customized in the book settings.
