# Invoice Process

Now when the customer cards are configured correctly, we look at how the invoice process to send PDF email works with the Golden EDI app.

When a sales order, invoice or credit note is created, it will inherit the 'GEDI profile' from the customer cards that we have configured. The GEDI profile will activate the freemium functions.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Before posting a sales invoice or credit note, it is possible to remove or change the 'GEDI profile' on it to override the customer cards for that specific sales invoice or credit note.
{% endhint %}

When you are trying to "post" a sales invoice or credit memo, the Golden EDI app will listen to this event and add it to the 'GEDI Message Queue' as an unprocessed message.

{% hint style="info" %}
At this point the '**GEDI Status'** for the posted sales invoice or credit note have been updated to '**Requested'**, letting you know that the message is queued.
{% endhint %}

Every 5 minutes during normal business hours, a 'Job Queue Entry' is scheduled to process all unprocessed message in the 'GEDI Message Queue', at this point they will be sent out as emails via your SMTP.

{% hint style="success" %}
If the email was sent out successfully, the '**GEDI Status'** of the posted sales invoice or credit note will be updated to '**Sent**'.
{% endhint %}
