I replayed your scenario with my 1.4.17-dev environment (the latest
development version), however, I can't reproduce what you said on the
*sales* invoice, I *can* however reproduce it on the *vendor* invoice.
There were no changes in the templates between 1.4.15 and 1.4.17-dev, so, I
can prepare a fix to be released with 1.4.17 and send you an overview of th
edifferences, if you like, so you can make similar changes in your template?

Correct. The description that's mentioned on the invoice lines is to be the
same description as on the line items of the Edit Sales Invoice page.

I have discovered that I can create a service and then auto-populate the

That's right. The second description is entirely manual and doesn't appear
on the invoice in the included template.

Ok. As I said, in the Vendor Invoice (AP), I do see the behaviour you
describe. I'm using the 'demo' templates, however, there are other
templates as well: 'demo_with_images' and 'xedemo'. Which set do you use?

I'm a very new user, so it's quite possible that I have a mis-understanding
