Ability to uncheck primary PDF when sending by email

@lubos Is it possible to make the checkmark of the PDF document generated by Manager unchecked when sending an email? In certain cases, I need to print the document physically, sign it, and place a physical stamp on the printed document. In Indonesia some client still require me to attach a physical Meterai (some sort of stamp duty) on documents. Then, I send the scanned version to the client via email, while the physical document is sent to the client’s physical address.

Some other cases, when a physical stamp is not used and I don’t have to send the physical document, I still must attach the document with an e-meterai. It’s the digital counterpart of the physical Meterai. To accomplish this, I need to affix this e-meterai through a trusted third-party service appointed by PERURI (it’s an Indonesian state-owned enterprise that serves as the national mint, banknote printer, and a provider of integrated digital and security printing solutions for the Indonesian government and beyond). Then, after affixing the e-meterai through the service, I download the PDF version that has been stamped with the e-meterai and send it via email to the client.

Therefore, if it possible to make it happen, I only need attach the scanned version with physical Meterai or the downloaded version of the document that has e-meterai in manager, then send it by email through manager too.

I inquire about this matter to see if it is indeed feasible and possible for you to undertake. Even if it possible, should the effort required be too burdensome, and you are able to accomplish it, there is no need to rush. If it is not possible to do it, that is perfectly fine. Anyways, thanks always for all your efforts to enhance the app’s capabilities. Cheers :grin: :+1:

I see what you mean. You do processing on invoice externally to obtain new version of PDF which you attach to the invoice as attachment. Then you want to send that invoice.

In the future, the processing should be all done within Manager using extensions. But even then, there might always be a use-case when you want to email attachment(s) only.

Yes, that’s right, Lubos. In other circumstances, we might only need to send the PDF version generated by the Manager. Thus, both conditions apply. Thank you for turning this into an idea. Oh btw, it’s not just for an Invoice. Sometimes, my clients require me to affix meterai or e-meterai on the Sales Quote, or in the Receipt. Just in case, if it’s possible to do it on Sales Invoice, Sales Quote and Receipt.
