Magento change order invoice status at your whim

This was a huge problem for our customer service team and ultimately it’s a simple fix. Although you need to be careful depending on how your card processing is setup, etc.

In Magento 1.6.2.0+
On line 34 change:

<?php foreach ($this->getStatuses() as $_code=>$_label): ?>

To:

<?php foreach (Mage::getSingleton('sales/order_config')->getStatuses() as $_code=>$_label): ?>
