Is there a way to set the interval of the invoices for different clients? At this moment we are creating invoices every day. Our larger clients however want to receive their invoice once a month.

You can create an order record which will generate an invoice once a month, but only if the amount is the same each month. If you are creating ad-hoc invoices for different amounts yourself, it is up to you how often you do it!

That is not what I meant. In the current situation we create orders for a client. Lets say these orders are domain names. The domain names are billed once a year. We created a order on the 1st of march, the 10th of march, the 12th of march and on the 29th of april. He will receive 4 invoices for these domains.

The suggestion: It would be useful to let certain customers receive just one invoice each month. So this customer would receive only 2 invoices.

Do I make sense here? The system creates invoices every day. It looks at the created orders and generates invoices out of them. This is fine for most of our customers, but some of them just have to many orders. They receive a invoices every day of the month. Their question to us: can we get a invoice ones a month? So our suggestion would be a setting that defines how many times a year a customer should receive a invoice.

Why not just set the next due date of all orders to the same day of the month? Eg. if they all have the next due date set to the 1st, only one invoice will be generated per month, on the 1st.

True but that way we would loose the overview of the expiration dates of the domain.
