Use the Rapid tab of the Invoice Templates screen to enter multiple customer invoice templates in a quick-entry mode. As you press the TAB key to move through the fields in this tab, the application retains the selections for most fields, so you don't need to re-enter all of the information for the next template.

Choose Setup > Invoice Templates.
