The plugin collects the required invoice details, generates a PDF tax invoice, stores it securely, attaches it to a customer email, and makes it available for download from the customer account.<\/p>\n\n<p>The plugin is designed for stores that need a lightweight, practical way to collect VAT, GST, ABN, TRN, tax ID, or other regional tax registration details after checkout.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Key features<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Allow customers to request a tax invoice from My Account &gt; Orders.<\/li>\n<li>Show a tax invoice request form on the order details page.<\/li>\n<li>Support guest customers through the order received page when a valid order key is available.<\/li>\n<li>Automatically prefill invoice fields from billing details and previously saved customer invoice details.<\/li>\n<li>Collect company\/customer name, tax ID label, tax ID number, country\/region, billing address, invoice email, and invoice note.<\/li>\n<li>Generate a PDF tax invoice automatically after a valid request is submitted.<\/li>\n<li>Send the generated tax invoice PDF to the customer by email.<\/li>\n<li>Add a downloadable tax invoice action to the My Account orders list after generation.<\/li>\n<li>Display invoice request details in the WooCommerce order admin screen.<\/li>\n<li>Configure allowed order statuses for tax invoice requests.<\/li>\n<li>Configure seller legal name, seller tax ID, seller address, and seller email.<\/li>\n<li>Configure invoice number prefix and next invoice number.<\/li>\n<li>Show or hide the tax summary by rate in the generated PDF.<\/li>\n<li>Show or hide the tax rate column for order items.<\/li>\n<li>Add a custom footer\/legal note to the PDF invoice.<\/li>\n<li>Optionally add a tax invoice request link to WooCommerce customer order emails.<\/li>\n<li>Compatible with WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS) order screens.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>Customer workflow<\/h4>\n\n<ol>\n<li>The customer opens an eligible order from My Account &gt; Orders, or opens the order received page with a valid order key.<\/li>\n<li>The customer clicks Request tax invoice.<\/li>\n<li>A modal form opens with prefilled invoice details when possible.<\/li>\n<li>The customer submits the invoice details.<\/li>\n<li>The plugin validates the request, saves the invoice details to the order, and stores reusable invoice details for logged-in customers.<\/li>\n<li>A PDF tax invoice is generated automatically.<\/li>\n<li>The customer receives a WooCommerce-styled email with the PDF attached.<\/li>\n<li>The customer can download the PDF again from the order list or the tax invoice section on the order details page.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<h4>Store manager workflow<\/h4>\n\n<p>Store managers can view the tax invoice request from the WooCommerce order edit screen. The order metabox shows the invoice status, invoice number, company\/customer name, tax ID, country\/region, invoice email, billing address, invoice note, and a download button when the PDF is available.<\/p>\n\n<h4>PDF invoice details<\/h4>\n\n<p>Generated PDF invoices include:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Invoice title.<\/li>\n<li>Invoice number and invoice date.<\/li>\n<li>WooCommerce order number and order date.<\/li>\n<li>Currency and payment method.<\/li>\n<li>Seller details.<\/li>\n<li>Customer invoice details.<\/li>\n<li>Order items, quantities, subtotals, tax amounts, and totals.<\/li>\n<li>Optional tax rate column.<\/li>\n<li>Optional tax summary grouped by tax rate.<\/li>\n<li>Optional invoice note from the customer.<\/li>\n<li>Optional footer\/legal note configured by the store.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>Email behavior<\/h4>\n\n<p>When a tax invoice PDF is generated, the plugin sends a dedicated customer email with the PDF attached. The email can use WooCommerce email templates and includes the order number and invoice number when available.<\/p>\n\n<p>You can also enable a request link in customer order emails. When enabled, supported customer emails can include a Request tax invoice button that sends customers to the order page and opens the invoice request form.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Invoice numbering<\/h4>\n\n<p>New invoices use the configured invoice number prefix and the next invoice number setting. The default format is:<\/p>\n\n<pre><code>PREFIX-YEAR-000001\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n<p>For example:<\/p>\n\n<pre><code>TAX-2026-000001\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n<p>Existing invoice numbers are preserved and are not regenerated when settings change.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Security and access control<\/h4>\n\n<p>The plugin validates invoice requests with WordPress nonces and WooCommerce order permissions. Downloads are protected and only available to authorized users, store managers, or guests with a valid order key. PDF files are generated inside a dedicated uploads folder and served through a permission-checked download handler.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Where to configure<\/h4>\n\n<p>Go to:<\/p>\n\n<p>WooCommerce &gt; Settings &gt; Tax &gt; Tax invoice<\/p>\n\n<p>Settings are grouped into:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>General<\/li>\n<li>Seller details<\/li>\n<li>Invoice numbering<\/li>\n<li>PDF display<\/li>\n<li>Customer emails<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<!--section=installation-->\n<ol>\n<li>Upload the plugin files to the <code>\/wp-content\/plugins\/yoohw-tax-invoice-requests\/<\/code> directory, or install the plugin ZIP file from WordPress admin.<\/li>\n<li>Activate the plugin through the Plugins screen in WordPress.<\/li>\n<li>Go to WooCommerce &gt; Settings &gt; Tax &gt; Tax invoice.<\/li>\n<li>Review the allowed order statuses.<\/li>\n<li>Add your seller legal business name, tax ID, address, and email.<\/li>\n<li>Configure invoice numbering and PDF display options.<\/li>\n<li>Save changes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<!--section=faq-->\n<dl>\n<dt id=\"where%20do%20customers%20request%20a%20tax%20invoice%3F\"><h3>Where do customers request a tax invoice?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>Logged-in customers can request a tax invoice from the order details page in My Account.
