In the previous version of "Create and Invoice" it was possible to create a group invoice.  I am unable to find this feature in the updated version.  Can someone help me with this?  Thanks in advance.

I was actually searching for to see exactly what group invoicing (forgive my ignorance in the matter) is, when I happened upon your question.

 

In the email box when creating an invoice, it appears that you would separate the email addresses with commas to perform group invoicing.

I have tried creating a group invoice separating each email by a comma and nothing. It doesn't work. Any other ideas? Is it broken?

Just spoke to paypal regarding this BUg and yes they loged a bug for me a few weeks ago. It was closed witht he comment that the group invoice functionality was not intended at this time. 

 

This **bleep**$ and is another reason to look for an alternative service.

My take on this is that you can do a group request using the "Request Money" feature, but if you want to use the invoice feature, you can send only one at a time. The invoice feature generates more detail, as I gather from reading PayPal info. I accidentally used the "Request Money" feature early on, and I might use it more now that I see how labor-intensive the invoice process is. I have about 220 contacts in my Address Book, and just clicking through pages to the end of the list (7 or 8 clicks) takes a lot of time when I want to send reminders to a bunch of them. PayPal needs to let you click to a certain page, and click to the end, not just click "next" page.
