Hi there

Hi
tight maple
Are you creating PaymentLinks via the Dashboard or using the API?
brisk snow
via the Dashboard
In Poland I only need invoices for my payments. A receipt is not needed.
tight maple
Got it. When you create or manage a PaymentLink in the Dashboard, the "After payment" tab has a setting to create an Invoice:
I recommend reviewing this as well to see how Invoice details are pulled in and what settings you may need to change to display the necessary information: https://docs.stripe.com/invoicing/global-config-guide
tight maple
All good, no worries!
brisk snow
For payments made via this link I can no longer easily issue invoices?
tight maple
What do you mean by that?
brisk snow
I have made about 10 payments to this link and issued receipts, but I need an invoice. Do I need to create them manually?
And will the issued invoice also be automatically sent to the buyer's email after payment?
tight maple
Ah gotcha, okay. It's not possible to create Invoices for already-successful payments. If you want to send these customers an Invoice, you'll need to create a one-off Invoice and mark it as paid out of band as a workaround: https://docs.stripe.com/invoicing/overview#out-of-band-invoices

Ok. Thank you. We can close the topic.
tight maple
If you turn on "Create an invoice PDF" on a PaymentLink, the Invoice will be sent to the buyer's email but not for payment since they would have already completed the payment via the PaymentLink
The Invoice they receive after the payment would just be for their records
brisk snow
Ok. I see. That's what I meant. I need these invoices for my accounting program. It's just a shame that you can't number them NR/MM/YYYY
tight maple
Ah, yeah, there's some customization you can do on invoice numbers but I ultimately recommend consulting with a professional: https://docs.stripe.com/invoicing/customize#invoice-numbering-schemes
