"Posting" an invoice effectively "sets it in stone" -- it locks the invoice as the final incarnation and creates the transaction(s) in Receivables and thus makes the invoice receivable. Until you post it, the invoice is just a "work in progress". For example, as you complete work items for the client, you would add a line item to the invoice. When the job is done, or its the end of the pay period (week, month, quarter, etc.), you would then post the invoice and (if the job is ongoing) start a new one. It has nothing to do with actually sending the invoice to the customer.
