Indicates whether the invoice should be issued synchronously after creation/import, without going through the transport send flow.
When set to true and the invoice passes validations:
- The invoice transitions to
state=issued (c1 corner) inline.
- If the account has a
before_send tax report setting enabled with auto_generate on and the invoice qualifies, the tax report is generated inline and exposed via tax_report_ids. When auto_generate is off the invoice is still issued but no report is created, consistent with the send flow — those reports are managed through the Tax Reports API.
- Authorities that report after sending (for example SII or SDI) are not triggered by issuing; their reports are created when the invoice is sent or marked as sent.
- No background send job is enqueued; the transport-level state (c2) remains untouched.
- While in
state=issued the invoice becomes read-only: it cannot be updated, deleted, or reverted to new until it is sent or downloaded.
If both send_after_import and issue_after_import are true, send_after_import wins (sending already issues the invoice). Ignored for non-invoice documents.
