Hi there

#

Are you planning on using Stripe Billing (Subscriptions through Stripe)?

orchid tangle Apr 24, 2023, 7:28 PM

#

Hello, we already have a billing system embedded in our back office and we use stripe to handle online payment

#

Hmm okay

#

I don't quite understand the question then

#

Yes each different payment will have a different ID

#

It will have a separate Invoice and PaymentIntent specifically

#

You can set metadata on either of these if you want

#

To map to your own system

#

If that doesn't answer your question then can you give me more details or show me a specific example and tell me exactly what you would like to have happen?

Thank you for this feedback ! Actually, before doing the payment our system will be generated the Invoice ID for the future installment and we would like to automatically link them to the upcoming payment (paymentintent) within Stripe without having any without doing it at every payment

To clarify, is this a Stripe Invoice object or are these objects and invoices your own and have IDs from your system?

#

We do have a setting to give each customer their own custom invoice prefix if you are using our Invoices API. That may help here https://stripe.com/docs/invoicing/customize#customer-numbering

Customize invoices

Customize the content and branding of your invoices.

#

Unfortunately I don't think we have other similar settings like that. So you might need to have the ID on your side and then add it to the metadata of these objects in either their creation API call or in an update API call later.
