I’m using the Event Espresso 3 test suite to see if it’s going to be suitable for a business that I work with, and while it looks great for the most part, I’ve run into an odd hiccup.

For certain events, I need to let registrants choose to pay either the full event price ($200), or a smaller deposit amount ($75) to reserve their space, with the balance ($125) to be paid later. In some other threads, I read that deposits aren’t currently supported in EE3, but that registration fees can be modified after the fact, and then an invoice generated for the registrant to pay the difference. I set up a test event on that premise, and it all works great except for the very last part.

I set two prices ($75 and $200) for my test event, and chose the lower one when registering. After registration was complete, I changed the price for my registration to $200, then went to the Payment Details page. It shows $125 under “Total Amount Owing,” which is correct. However, when sending myself the invoice notice, the amount shown in the email is not the balance due ($125), but the full total ($200). Not only that, but when I go to the web site to pay, it also shows the full $200 total, and sends that amount to PayPal if I try to pay it. The only place that shows the correct $125 balance due is the PDF version of the invoice.

Is this a bug in the system, or am I missing a switch somewhere?
