Feature Request: auto-generate invoice from payment

Please add a Merchant Account option to allow payers to request & receive an invoice based on what they just purchased.
This would save both sides time. 

Sample scenario: I have a system the generates invoices for software support renewal. Customers pay via PayPal using annual support button on my web site. Some customers adjust quantity to multiple years instead of 1. They then ask me to generate a manual invoice to reflect the new quantity. That's manual work that can be avoided if PayPal allowed invoices to be generated based on payment.

Hi, did you finally found a solution? If yes, how did you managed? If no, would you still be interested? I'm a developer having the same issue and I'm thinking of building that tool myself.

Hello @matvsax  @ixm7 , if using a third party tools is one option to compliment your scenario, Googling exact phrase "Automate PayPal Invoicing" could lead to some options. Hope that helps if you are still looking for a solution.
