Hi Core Devs, let me weigh in here with hopefully a bit of clarity.
In current 1.3.4 and earlier AbanteCart versions, Admin has always been able to edit the order details, adding a product, removing a product, changing the shipping cost, adding a coupon etc.
However, if Admin has very large or very heavy products that need special crating or is being shipped via truck, the final shipping weight may not be available until crate is built , packed, and weighed.
Current AbanteCart does not allow sending a payment request - so Admins in this situation must send an invoice via a different platform - (e.g. PayPal invoicing) for either the entire order or the shipping.
We need to delay the payment of the order until final charges are avaiable. Our intent is to allow a “payment” selection of billing by invoice. The admin can then use current order details to add the final shipping charges and recalc the order total.
We are still using the normal invoice routine that pulls from the orders tables to construct the invoice.
We just want to move the location of the payment selections a customer can use from the order checkout to the INVOICE. We are NOT changing how the default checkout works, only pausing until all charges are available, then sending an INVOICE with the payment methods that would have been shown in Order Checkout
