[HOLD for payment 2024-05-29][$250] [VIP] Send an invoice from an invoice room

Main issue: https://github.com/Expensify/Expensify/issues/341717
Doc section: Here
Project: #vip-billpay

Feature Description

Problem:

In NewDot, users are limited to sending invoices from Global Create. Without the ability to create and send invoices from within these dedicated rooms, the process can become disjointed. This setup forces users to navigate away from the conversation context to send invoices, disrupting workflow continuity.

Solution

Implement Send invoice from the invoice room in NewDot allowing users to send invoices directly from a pre-existing invoices room.

Just so I'm super clear on this: the Send invoice option only shows up in Global create and already-created invoice rooms (that would've been created from the global create option), is that correct? That's what I'm gathering from the doc, I just want to fully make sure I understand the expected behavior/implementation.

[VickyStash]

@dannymcclain This issue is more about creating an invoice from the existing invoice room. So you have already send one invoice to the receiver, and you want to send another one. Doing it from Global create adds extra step of selecting receiver. By doing it right from the room this step can be skipped. What do you think?

[VickyStash]

@cristipaval I think the related section was removed from Invoicing document, do you have an idea where was it moved to?

[dannymcclain]

@VickyStash ok that's what I thought this issue was for, just wanted to make sure! Thanks.

[VickyStash]

@shawnborton Which way the receiver should look if the user sends an invoice from the existing invoice room. I have two options:
1)

2)

Following through this slack conversation - https://expensify.slack.com/archives/CSL3XBCCR/p1715782572275539

Disabling invoicing at the workspace level will not affect existing invoices and invoice rooms; they will still be accessible. Although this wasn't explicitly stated in the workspace settings section of the payments design docu, I've added a bullet point to the HL overview of the document to clarify this. It's important to note that the invoice rooms will be impacted in that the "Send Invoice" option will no longer appear in the invoice room create button when invoicing is disabled in workspace settings of the invoice sender workspace.

^ @cristipaval Let me know if you think that should be it's own GH.
