I run an e-commerce store on the Shopify platform and have been using InvoiceOcean for over a year now to manage my business (includes wholesale, Shopify, Amazon, and other sales channels). At the end of the month I have to manually create invoices individually in InvoiceOcean to match every purchase completed that month through the Shopify platform (same for Amazon). As the business grows and the corresponding number of invoices, this is becoming a very time consuming task.
It would be great if you created integration between InvoiceOcean and Shopify, where an invoice would be generated automatically, or with minimum manual effort after each purchase through Shopify. This can be done through their app system (https://apps.shopify.com). I think there is a good business case for you to do so as Shopify is one of the largest platforms currently on the market and quickly growing. I'd be happy to upgrade to a higher plan, or purchase the Shopify app, as the time saving at month-end would easily justify this. As an alternative can I use your API to create some sort of an integration?
I really would appreciate if you could add
1. Notes (general and private) also to be exported and imported by using xml file and
2. File Attachments as link URL - as you do not support the uploaded files URL's to be exported too.
This would be a great combination to be used to transfer data from one account to another...
Hello! We are planning to implement those features in the future. I don't have the timeframes currently - it depends on how many users would demand this.
Hi all, I need more unique selectors in the invoice preview html elements. It would really help if you give every invoice item a unique class or id.
Here in Argentina our invoices must be printed over a fiscal form. So I need to style the position of the invoice data to be printed in special places over the form.
Please, let me know if you can help me with this request.
You may changes the way your invoice looks by changing it in CSS. In order to do so go to Settings > Account settings > Print settings > Customize print with CSS.
I created 4 companies... now I'm adding contacts/clients. Is there a way to make enter the clients into all companies at one instead of adding them one by one... or even importing them into each company separately?
I want to do intercompany transfers and bill different departments/companies
Is it best to use companies or departments? Can a department bill another department? Can they have different reporting and banking info? I'm just trying to figure out the best practice before I add too much data and have to start over.
When the documents are issued in Georgian language, some fields are not translated:
1. in all documents: "tel". and "fax" labels. in Georgian "tel" must be "ტელ." and "fax" must be "ფაქსი"

3. In Prepayment invoices: related "Estimate" label must be "შეკვეთა" and "Razem" label must be "სულ"
4. In Final Invoices: "related prepayment invoices" label must be "შესაბამისი საავანსო ინვოისები"
I have attached appropriate documents and marked fields to be translated with yellow.
How can Invoiceocean create a packing list? Whenever we dispatch the goods we need a packing list together with the invoice.
Do you have any plan to add it?
A packing list, known also as a shipping list, is a document that contains information about the elements of a package.
To issue a packing list based on an invoice or a proforma invoice go to Income > All and select the document you want to be the base of the packing list. Open the preview and on the top menu click Print > Packing note.
I would be helpful to generate a receipt when a payment is done, and link the two, if the invoice is paid in cash, you still need a receipt generated. Same should work for partial payments, as you'll have more than one receipts for an Invoice.
I have an invoice that has been issued, partially paid, and then a credit note has been issued for the outstanding amount. It's driving my accountant mad that it's still showing as owing after the issuance of the credit note. Is there any way of having it move from the outstanding category to something different signifying that it's been settled?
1. You need to create buying documents in expenses.
2. To make a document based on Proforma Invoice just go to the invoice preview and on top of the menu click "More options" > "add similar" and then change the Kind of document. Also you have an option - Convert to invoice.
I'm attempting to create a new template by adapting the Default Blue, so I tried to load this as a base in the editor but for some reason the "Insert template example" functionality does not seem to work (it's not changing the template code, nor the css code). Is there any way to go around this issue?
If the functionality is still under development, maybe as a temporary workaround you could share on the forum or in the knowledge base the Default Blue template (and associated CSS file) so that we could open them manually and copy/paste the code.
You can match every payment to a corresponding invoice. You have to issue the invoice first, and then, while generating the payment, select the invoice from the list.
Hoping to have the document absolutely identical to the default template but with the custom name, I've added new template and from the option "Insert example template" chose "default", but as a result I've got the document with the different layout and the same name as the default Invoice Template.
Hello, we implemented the first update about 2 weeks ago, the templates are almost the same; now our dev is working on making them equal but it requires additional tests as we want to avoid changes and errors in invoices issued with this template so far.
YOU SHOULD ADD IN YOUR OPTIONS PRODUCTION FORMULA BECAUSE A FINISHED PRODUCT NEEDS SOME MATERIAL O RAW MATERIAL. Do not misunderstand me YOUR SYSTEM IS AMAZING BUT THIS IS ONLY A SUGGESTION. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE AN OPTION TO SEE HOW MUCH QUANTITY NEED OF RAW MATERIAL TO MADE SOME PRODUCT(S).
thanks for your kind words. At InvoiceOcean we value your feedback and we constantly try to perfect our product. I have forwarded your suggestion to our programmers.
We need such kind of restrictions on for users that they could only issue invoices, prepayment invoices estimates, add clients and products and nothing more. I mean they should not be able to issue expenses or other documents. Also they should not be able to delete their account. Is that possible?
You can find all type of privileges available in our system by going to Settings > Account settings > Configuration > Users and privileges. A user enabled to issue documents is able to issue all type of documents available in the system. If the suggestion gain a significant number of user’s votes, we will consider its implementation.
Users can’t delete their accounts.

Dear Ocean Team.

with sales documents we do this in "Income" button.
1. But where i need to make buying documents? in expenses or warehousedocuments?
2. Also, can i make Bestellung (Purchase order) document from the document Proforma Invoice,
with saving all product positions inside of the document?
Dear Ocean User,
