Question

New Invoicing format gives error code again and again when trying to duplicate invoices?

With the exceedingly stupid and unnecessary Invoicing format design, we are unable to process new invoices for dozens of clients.  We cannot duplicate a previous invoice, amend and send.  We get  "An Application Error has occurred" message every time.  Some clients we cannot create even a new invoice.  It will not save.  We cannot duplicate an older invoice and save.  It comes back "error".  We cannot send to our clients.  I have spent over 12 hours on the phone with over a dozen QB reps, with no solution.  Changes in format make the invoices less adaptable, less readable, require more clicks to do a previously single-click process...maddening.  Aren't software changes meant to A) Speed data processiing B) SImplify your bookeeping C) Remove glitches?  This has done the exact opposite with all three.  HAS ANYONE BEEN ABLE TO NAVIGATE THROUGH THIS MASSIVE NEW GLITCH FEST AND MAKE THE INVOICING WORK?  HELP!!

    It honestly seems like QB designed the new invoice template to try and force out larger companies.  Trying to focus in on just mom and pop type businesses.
