Create recurring invoices

For regular clients, you can easily create recurring invoices by copying an existing invoice. When you copy an invoice you are creating a new invoice for the same client with the same type and amount. If you have enabled the general ledger, the invoice is also applied to the same GL account.

You can modify the copied invoice if you set it to draft status.
