How to implementate note(s) to Invoices

Merchello
Hi,

Using Umbraco 7.3.4 and Merchello 1.13.2 and want to add a note to the Invoice for commentary.

First i tried this, but that seemed not working at al, when requesting the invoice the Notes are null:
```
if (invoice.Notes == null) {
     invoice.Notes = new List<Note>();
}
invoice.Notes.Add(note);
invoiceService.Save(invoice);
```
Tried this, but then i don't know how to connect it to the Invoice:
```
//Adding notes to the Invoice
var noteService = MerchelloContext.Current.Services.NoteService;
Note note = new Note();
note.Message = message;
noteService.Save(note);
```
Found this, but don't know how to connect it with the invoice:
```
noteService.CreateNoteWithKey(entityKey, EntityType, message);
```
Can someone give me a basic example how to implemtate this?

Kind regards, Wesley

I'm now using this:
```
noteService.CreateNoteWithKey(invoice.Key, EntityType.Invoice, message);
```
And when i request the Invoice:
```
var invoice = invoiceService.GetByKey(new Guid("6D4451DB-14A8-44DE-81FD-D3F4B71A7CAC"));
```
invoice.Notes is still null.

Using the NoteService i can get the notes with:
```
var notes = noteService.GetNotesByEntityKey(invoice.Key);
```
So is this the way it supposed to be working?

It seems that you need to ensure that the invoice is saved first.

        invoiceService.Save(invoice);

        var noteService = MerchelloContext.Current.Services.NoteService;
        var note = noteService.CreateNoteWithKey(invoice.Key, EntityType.Invoice, json);
        noteService.Save(note);

Because the Invoice object is not in commited state and you cannot made a relation.

Hi Kristian... it is not working for me....

It is staying empty :/

var merchelloServices = MerchelloContext.Current.Services;
            var currentCustomer = new CustomerContext(Umbraco.UmbracoContext).CurrentCustomer;
            var merchelloHelper = new MerchelloHelper();
            var invoiceService = merchelloServices.InvoiceService;
            var noteService = merchelloServices.NoteService;

            var customerBasket = currentCustomer.Basket();

            var countryCode = "US";
            var address = new Address { AddressType = AddressType.Billing, CountryCode = countryCode };
            var checkoutManager = customerBasket.GetCheckoutManager();
            checkoutManager.Customer.SaveBillToAddress(address);

            var invoice = checkoutManager.Payment.PrepareInvoice();
            invoice.VersionKey = Guid.NewGuid();
            invoice.Items.Add(customerBasket.Items);

            invoiceService.Save(invoice);

            //save invoice note
            var note = noteService.CreateNoteWithKey(invoice.Key, EntityType.Invoice, model.AdditionalInformation);
            noteService.Save(note);

            //clear basket
            customerBasket.Empty();

Any help would be much appreciated
