Creating PDF invoice automatically for a third party system

[loostaq]

Hello. We are using a third party logistics operator who handles our orders. We have integrated Prestashop with their system, but we still have one problem: How to add the invoice pdf into the third party system.

 

One solution would be to automatically save the invoice pdf file to the server as soon as the order is created, and let the system retrieve it from there. But I don't know how to save that pdf - anyone?

 

Or any other approach to this?

I would send invoices via email, as Mail alerts module does.

In this case the email attachement does not work, because the system should be able retrieve the actual pdf file directly from the server using certain url. For a simplified example something like:

mydomain.com/invoices/INVOICENUMBER.pdf
