 * Hello, I’ve got a question about recurring billing system functionality.
    I need
   to send invoice to client periodically for recurring billing. If I make a invoice
   as recurring, then is the invoice automatically sended to client periodically?
   Or if it isn’t, then what do I have to do to send it automatically?

 * It works like subscription. Payment systems control this process. Invoice is 
   not sent but payment system (paypal, authorize.net etc) withdraw funds periodically.

 * Is there no way to send recurring invoices instead of using a system that automatically
   bills periodically? I really wanted to switch to WP-Invoice but I need to be 
   able to automate sending invoices, with a once-off payment option for each automated
   invoice instead of working through a system that does auto-billing.
 * The workflow would be: I set up recurring invoice -> client receives first invoice
   and makes a once-off payment through any of the available once-off payment options-
   > then the next month the system (wp-invoice) send and automated/recurring invoice,
   same as the last -> the client opens the invoice and makes another once-off payment
   through any of the available once-off payment options, even a different one than
   before.
 * How can we make this happen?

 * Basically, this is called Internal Recurring Billing and is in our roadmap for
   future but I can’t say when it will be ready.
