More than one invoice based on one Sales order

Question

Hi,
one of our customer has following question:
A customer of him placing a sales order.
The order has an amount of 10.000 €.
The commitment between our customer and his customer is, that 40% should have been paid when placing the order. Other 40% have to be paid after delivery and the rest, 20%, have been paid after everything is fine. (There'll be other terms like to split the amount in 3 or 4 invoices etc...)
The payment term is 30 day after invoice.
That means, on the same day, the order is placed, a invoice has to be written about 4.000 €
When the delivery has made, there should be written an invoice about 4.000 €.
After all is finished, the rest of 2.000 € have to be invoiced.
Sure, it could be made with down-payment from B1.
But it can be, that the seccond invoice has been written inside the first payment term an the first invoice hasn't been balanced.
If it is so, in the seccond invoice, he can't use the down payment  to subtract the first invoice from the seccond an so on.
Our customer wants to see all "Part-invoices" in the following invoice. In the closing invoice, ther should be seen all "part-invoices".
If anyone can help us, we'll be very pleased!
Thanks

For this scenarion, you will need a combination of Authorization procedures and Alerts and tie everything together.
Also, we need to consider that the product adapts beast practices and can be configured to do certain things differently but changing the base functionality would not be possible which is more in the lines of what your business process might need.
