I don't understand the question. What specifically are you trying to do?

fading spruce
#

This was the answer from your colleague before.

#

Right, but there's conflicting info there and to what you describe. What kind of payments are you doing (e.g. what mode do you set when you create a session?)?

fading spruce
#

Embedded form

verbal perch
#

That doesn't answer my question

#

What mode do you set when you create a session? payment? subscription?

fading spruce
#

sorry，it is payment

verbal perch
#

OK, then:

If I omit the invoice_creation.enabled parameter in the Checkout Session, does that mean I can only issue an invoice to my customer via “Pay an invoice”?
Yes, if you don't enable post-payment invoices via the parameter then you'd need to create an invoice after the fact

#

In that case, the “Create an invoice” API seems meaningless 🤔
Not sure what this means

#

"Since your colleague mentioned this document, I reviewed it and noticed that it indicates creating invoices via the pay API, which led to my confusion."

Well you first create the invoice, and then pay it separately. Neither is meaningless – you can't do both in a single step/with a single API

fading spruce
#

So for issuing invoices after payment, the correct sequence is to first create the invoice and then pay it, rather than, as previously mentioned, just using the pay API.

verbal perch
#

So if you want to create a paid invoice without using Checkout's built-in functionality, then yes you'd:

  • Create the invoice via the create endpoint
  • Pay it and mark it paid_out_of_band
#

Yes

翻译成英文可以这样表达：

I have another question: what is the difference between Hosted Invoice Page and Checkout Embedded Form? Is it that the Hosted Invoice Page allows both invoicing and payment, while the Checkout Embedded Form only supports payment?

verbal perch
#

Well, Checkout does support invoicing as we explained previously. You need to enable it

The HIP is a hosted URL that allows customers to view and pay their invoices

i see, thk, have a nice day

No problem, glad I could help!
