I recently installed SP409 on our test server and I noticed that on the Order Entry screen there's a new (at least I don't remember seeing it before) check box: Auto Invoice.
the Help file refers to something called an "ERS Order: When selected, this designates that ERS (Evaluated Receipt Settlement and Self Billing) invoices will automatically be generated for this sales order at time of customer shipment. ERS invoicing allows your bill to customer to pay invoices based on packing slip information they receive from your company. Clear this check box if you wish to generate invoices in the normal manner. "
I haven't had a chance to look into it, but it could be what you're looking for.
