Creating a New Invoice

You must enter all of the details in the Invoice page and then fill out the Cybersource tab to create an invoice in
Oracle NetSuite
and send it to Cybersource.
  1. In your
    Oracle NetSuite
    account, hover over
    Transactions
    , hover over
    Sales
    , and then click
    Create Invoices
    . For detailed instructions on how to complete the Invoice page, see Creating an Invoice. Then, continue following the steps in this section to complete the Cybersource portion.
  2. While still on the Invoice page, scroll down and click the
    Cybersource
    tab.
  3. In the
    Pay by Link
    MID Account
    field, select the same MID account as the
    Default MID Config
    field contains from the Configuring an Invoicing Setup section. This field contains all the active set up records, so double check that you select the correct account.
  4. In the
    Pay by Link
    Create Invoice
    field, select the same invoice action that you selected for the
    Default Invoice Action
    field in the Configuring an Invoicing Setup section.
  5. (Optional) If you want to create an invoice using a specific number, enter that number in the
    Pay by Link
    Invoice ID
    field. If you leave it blank, Cybersource auto-generates the invoice number and saves it. The invoice ID allows only letters, numbers, and special characters:
    _ -
    .
  6. If you want to allow partial payments for the invoice, enter the amount in the
    Pay by Link
    Partial Allowed Amount
    field. The partial amount entered should not be greater than the total invoice amount.
  7. Enter the email to be used to send the
    Pay by Link
    Invoice Link
    field at the transaction level. If you leave this field blank, the system sources the email address from the
    Pay by Link
    Email field on the Customer record. If that field is also blank, the system sources the email address from the standard Email field on the Customer record.
  8. Check the
    Pay by Link
    Header Only
    box if you do not want to send line-level data in the request to the
    Business Center
    . If you do want to send line level data, it cannot exceed the maximum limit of 30 lines, and you must leave the box clear.
  9. Click
    Save
    . If you exceed the line-level data limit and did not check the
    Pay by Link
    Header Only box, a warning message appears when you try to save it. You must either reduce the number of lines or check the
    Pay by Link
    Header Only box to send the header only.
  10. When you save the record, a new invoice is created in the
    Business Center
    with these details. The system saves the invoice number from the
    Business Center
    in the
    Pay by Link
    Invoice ID
    field and the status in the
    Pay by Link
    Invoice Status
    field.
  11. If an issue occurs while you are creating the invoice, the error message appears in the
    Pay by Link
    Error Message
    field. After you resolve the error, save the record again to create the invoice. For more information about the reason codes, see Reason Codes for Oracle NetSuite.
