👋 Still digging on this one!

dawn panther Jul 5, 2023, 9:25 PM

#

ok

steady parrot Jul 5, 2023, 9:35 PM

#

Ah, it looks like this is because this invoice was set to auto_advance: false. This requires you to specifically call /invoices/invoice_id/pay to pay the invoice

dawn panther Jul 5, 2023, 9:55 PM

#

oh, ok

#

so if the invoice is finalized with auto advance true, will it attempt payment if a CC is on file?

steady parrot Jul 5, 2023, 9:56 PM

#

It'll depend on the value of collection_method and whether the CC on file for the customer is the one that's used for invoices by default

#

so if we want to create invoices for customers to pay

#

what should the setting be

#

we use collection_method of send_invoice

#

collection_method can remain send_invoice if you want to send customers the invoice (either send it yourself or have Stripe send them an email with a link to the Stripe-hosted invoice). Setting auto_advance: true + collection_method: send_invoice means that these invoices will be automatically reconciled if a customer sends funds via an ACH credit transfer
