Invoice Ninja: Create invoice
invoice-ninja_create_invoiceInvoice Ninja: Create a draft invoice for a client with line items, dates and notes. Creates an invoice as a draft and returns its number and totals. A draft is invisible to the client, stays out of the client balance and cannot reach anyone until you send it with send_invoice. Invoice Ninja numbers the invoice from the pattern in Settings > Generated Numbers, and without a due date the invoice is due immediately. Totals are quantity times unit cost per line, in the client currency. create_invoice runs without asking first: a draft reaches nobody and you can delete it in Invoice Ninja. Needs the user's Cotlet API key with access to this app.
