Is there a way to create the same invoice for several customers without having to redo the invoice over and over again?

Yes, there's an option to create the same invoices for several customers, walter16.

 

If you create the same invoice on a regular basis, use the Memorize feature in QuickBooks Desktop. This way, it will save the transaction as a template for future use.

 

Here's how to create a memorized transactions:

 

  1. Create a new invoice or open the invoice you've created.
  2. Click Memorize on top of the transaction.
  3. Enter a Name. Then, select how you want QuickBooks to handle it.
    • Add to my Reminders List: The transaction will be added to the Memorized Transactions section of your reminders list. When you choose this option, fill in the How Often field.
    • Do Not Remind Me: The transaction won’t be added to your reminders list or added automatically. You can use this as a template for transactions that repeat from time to time.
    • Automate Transaction Entry: The transaction will be entered when it's due. When you choose this option, remember to fill in the How Often and Next Date fields.
  4. Enter any other info, then tick OK.
  5. Hit Save & Close or Save & Next.

To apply the memorized invoice right away to your customers, just access the Memorized Transaction List. Then, change the customer name in the Customer:Job field.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Click List on the top menu and choose Memorized Transaction List.
  2. Double click the memorized invoice.
  3. Choose another customer name in the Customer:Job field.
  4. Hit Save & Close or Save & New.

Keep me posted if you need a hand with managing your invoices or any QuickBooks related. I'm glad to help.
