I did about the same thing for a few years. I might add a few tips.
Keep a log of the invoices with colums for the Invoice number and
a check mark for when it is closed and the customer name and a
colum for an abreviated discription of what the invoice was for.
This has several benefits. Not the leas of which is with returning
customres you can simply look up the last invoice in the log and
open it and do a save as with the new invoice number and then
edit the invoice without having to re-enter the customer information
all over again.

Hello -
I'm looking at this software for a small, private service-only
business (no products). I can't tell if I can customize an invoice
template and do invoicing through this platform.
Any input?
Thank you -
Julie
Yes you can. Create or customize the invoice. Then save it as a
template: File > Templates > Save. Then this invoice template can be
accessed by File > New > Templates and Documents. If the Templates
icon is selected on the left side of the window, your invoice
template will be listed in the My Templates folder in the Title list.
You might want to add the New Document From Template icon to the
Standard toolbar (The one that contains the Save icon.) Click the
down arrowhead at the right end of the toolbar, and a menu appears
which includes Visable buttons. Click it to open its list. Near the
top of this list is New Document From Template. Click it to add it to
the toolbar. You can then access your templates by clicking this
icon.
You might also want to get the Writer Guide by OOo Authors.
http://documentation.openoffice.org/manuals/. It is listed in the
third table on this web page.
