How is the due date calculated on a recurring invoice?
Hi I may have misunderstood how this is set up but can't seem to find answer on help. I have a monthly invoice I need to send out and the due date is say 5th of every month. So now I want to make this a recurring invoice sent 2 weeks before the 5th of every month. How can I set this up? Do I choose "Net Terms 14" say and that will automatically adjust the due date + 14 days the start date of the invoice? Which doesn't make sense as it won't always land you on the 5th of the month. Thanks Gene
Possible to bold or indent text in the description field?
As part of one item, I often have a detailed description that would be much easier to read if there was the ability to have a bulleted list or bold text and the like. Is this possible?

Any information would be appreciated. Thank you.
Estimates with options and sub-totals

Card payment surcharge?
Hi, I would like to offer my customers the ability to pay invoices by card (using the PayPal integration). However, PayPal charges me around 5% to receive a card payment, and I would like to pass on this cost to my customer by way of a card payment surcharge.

[Invoice] Project billing by percent completion of tasks
Hello, I appreciate the various options for Project billing types and budgeting found in Zoho Invoice, but I would like to either propose a new method or find out if it' s currently possible.
