PayPal Invoicing Module for CakeBoss Cloud

The PayPal Invoicing Module has been retired – please check out our PayNow feature, which allows your customers to pay you with payment buttons right on the CakeBoss invoice!

Just go to your My Bakery screen and click the PayPal tab to get started.

Notes about sending Paypal invoices from CakeBoss Cloud (Legacy Information)

1. The invoice is always sent for the amount of the next scheduled, unpaid payment.

2. Invoices are sent to the customer’s email address that is entered on their Customer Information screen.

3. The first invoice number will be the order number. Subsequent invoices for the same order will be named ordernumber.1, ordernumber.2, etc.

4. To send the invoice, click the button called Send Paypal Invoice on your Order screen. This will lead you to a confirmation screen. Confirm that the information is correct, then click Send Paypal Invoice again.

5. To check for paid invoices, click the button called Update Paypal Invoices on the Order screen, Payments tab.

6. The information from your ‘Notes’ tab will display underneath the Terms section.  The PayPal invoice does not support HTML, so all formatting (bold, italic, hyperlinks, bullets, embedded images, etc) will be lost.  Only plain text will display on the PayPal invoice.
