New Invoicing - Add Payment details on invoice screen
When using the new style of invoicing, it is no longer possible to enter a customer payment which having to click on the receive payment option. Using classic invoicing, the fields to enter the payment are present on the invoice screen. The classic invoicing method is much more efficient when entering a large number of customer invoices, so it would be great if these fields could be added to the invoice screen on the new style.

Hi everyone, to front foot some of the recent comments we will not be bringing back classic invoicing. With developments continuing within new invoicing, we do want to let you know that our product teams are highly engaged with your feedback and the ideas for new invoicing on the site.
We understand there's good interest in being able to add a payment directly from the invoice screen and appreciate the efficiencies expressed by customers in being able to do this. At present we're reviewing this feature and will move the idea across to Under Review. I'll be back to share more on the outcomes. Thanks

Hi, Just thought I would let you know that adding a payment before sending the invoice to the customer showing $0 balance in the NEW invoice template settings is terrible and you have to flick from one section to another. It was so much easier in the OLD invoice setup. For ecommerce businesses who are creating an invoice for an item already paid for it needs to be more user friendly. If it is annoying for me it will be for others as well. Any chance your team can take a look at sorting the issue? I have moved back to the old invoice system as its a lot easier to add that payment. Thanks.
