The payment option “pay by check” comes very close to what I actually need:

pay by invoice.

So I just need to change the wording:

Instead of ”pay by check” it should say ”pay by invoice”

Instead of ”make check payable to:” I just need ”you will receive via separate mail your invoice”

I found where the module is, but If I change it, I will lose my changes once I update.
So I don’t know how to add the modified code to the local codepool.

can anyone help?

I am sure I am not the only one using magento for B2B products with confirmed clients,
so that a longterm relationship with the customers allows us to send out goods without receiving payment first,
but accept payment on invoice once the customer received the goods.
