Thanks for the tips...they want a solution picked out by tomorrow...gonna do my best...

Invoice Ninja looks awfully good.

It does look good...we don't need the online payments portion but for something simple, it looks good. I think the two main needs are the ability to customize the invoice numbers to begin with "MS-" and then increment numbers and the ability to make fields REQUIRED...working with Invoice Ninja now on those questions...

I'm still leaning Invoice Ninja...still configuring it to be as close to our paper tickets as we can get it...

They have backed off a little especially since I've been needed every which way but loose on "Gremlin" issues yesterday and today...

It's nice when they give you some extra time - Gremlins are pain,..but the best ones are the internet issues like Level3 and TWC... Pass the buck,.. take a break... (yea,.. that THAT happens)

Invoice Ninja is off the radar...they wanted a little more robust reporting, or at least a neater "dump" that what it does...continuing my research.

What about dumping into Excel and making your own reports?

Always an option but they wanted the invoice users to be able to just run a report, print and go...I'd have to design an Excel Report to import the dump from Invoice Ninja...they wanted to clear my plate some... But yes, that IS an option if I don't find anything else...

You COULD make your own web reporting with it, as it is open. But that would be more of a pain. But certainly an option.

We just released a PHP SDK which would enable you to easily load their data to generate custom reports.

https://github.com/invoiceninja/sdk-php

We're also working on a marketplace which would enable you to share/sell your report with other users.

You will find almost no software that does what you want, like you want out of the box.

Reporting is honestly one of the "must customize" pieces of pretty much all accounting systems.
