Adding custom notes to each invoice?

Welcome to the Community, @leenahw.

You can use the Layout Designer tool to customize the look of your invoices. To add custom fields, here's what you'll need to do:

1. Go to the Customers menu at the top.
2. Click Create Invoices.
3. At the top of the form, choose an existing template and click New Template or Edit Current Template.
4. On the pop-up window, pick Fields.
5. In the Invoice Fields window, hit Fields tab.
6. Put a check mark on the Print and Screen column for Other.
7. Change the name of Other to the information you'd want.
8. Once done, click the X button and hit Save.
9. Enter the name of the template, then pick OK.

This seems to be adding a message to the invoice, not a block where I can customize the text on each and every invoice. IE invoice #1409 needs to say it's for a table that has specific dimensions. Invoice #1410 is for a bed and here are IT'S specific dimensions. I don't want a block of copy that goes on each invoice and is the same.

Hi there, @leenahw.

It's nice to see you here today. I want to make sure you're able to edit your invoice template.

3. Click on Edit Current Template.
4. Go to the Fields tab.
5. Pick the fields you want to include in the transaction.
6. Navigate the other tabs to apply the preference you want to use.

Let me know if I can help with anything else by replying to this thread. Have a great week.

That's literally what the other person said. I know I can add fields. What I want is a field where I can enter notes for each invoice. Why does it feel like I'm speaking a different language?

Did you ever get this figured out? I’m having a hard time finding a solution to the same issue for my invoices.
