kBilling 1.3.81 has been released!
In previous releases the Invoice Date (and by relation, the due date) was taken from the date picker on the Recurring Invoices tab at the time the cycle was run. That date picker has been eliminated. The invoice date will now be read from the individual recurring invoices and will be maintained through the entire billing cycle.
When you install 1.3.81 all recurring invoices will be updated and have their Invoice Date set to the Next Invoice Date on the same invoice. This is a one-time change. In the future all recurring invoices will maintain the Invoice Date as a relation to the billing cycle. Monthly invoices will add a month to the invoice date each cycle, weekly invoices will add a week, etc. Due date is still calculated as Invoice Date + Payment Terms (payment terms being NET-30 for 30 days to pay, NET-10 for 10 days to pay, etc).
When properly configured all recurring invoices (those invoices in Recur status) will have an Invoice Date set to some time in the future - generally the same as the Next Invoice date. You can change the invoice date to anything by editing the recurring invoice and choosing a new date, but be careful doing so as an invoice date in the past will confuse your customers! In short, you shouldn't have to do a thing to get it to work correctly but it does give those users that need it more flexibility when choosing invoice dates.
Please create a backup copy of your company file often, and most especially before upgrading. Backing up is easy! Just start kBilling, click on the File menu, then on Backup Company File!

Many thanks!
