It's been a while since I tried that. I do know, however, that if you changed anything in your terms and conditions, you cannot combine invoices when stamps were bought by the same buyer where the stamps were bought under different terms. You have to send different invoices. The stamps are grouped and color coded by the different terms that they were sold under when you use the "Add an Invoice" function. You can always adjust the shipping, if necessary on the invoices if you offer combined shipping discounts.
Remove each item showing on invoice using the 'Remove' button on the right hand side of the invoice.
Remove postage and any other charges you have entered.
When you have removed all the items from all the invoices you want to combine, press 'Add an invoice' button at bottom of your invoice list.
Select each item or select all items you want to appear on one invoice.
Then press the next button to add your postage or other charges.
Once you have done this you may go back to your list of invoices and delete the empty invoices that will appear on your list.
You cannot combine invoices if you have changed your terms and they are different in each invoice.

If you are using the same general terms and conditions just hit "Add lots" on the open invoice and it's pretty self- explanatory as to how to add the invoice in queue to your original (can't remember how and no way to open one to see right now).
If you have changed general terms and conditions I just -0- out the second one by putting the total as a negative in "other costs" and then moving the total to "other costs" on the good invoice and adjusting postage accordingly. I carefully annotate what I have done and so far no one has had any questions. A separate email prior to doing this might be a good thing.
Thanks for all the input. I had sent 2 invoices to Australia and now the buyer wants them combined. No change in terms bit it saves on the postage and paypal fees. If I can't combine them I'll just send another invoice and note that the increased postage reflects the items from the other invoice.
Your buyer doesn't need a formal invoice. Just send him the total to be paid and advise him to pay you through PayPal. The SOR invoice is just a convenience, not a legal requirement. I pay for goods all time through PayPal where there is nothing more than email notifications of amounts due and owing.
Plus, if he pays you directly (person-to-person) there usually are no PayPal fees on either side of the transaction.
I'm sure there is a way but I don't see it - how do you combine multiple invoices into one? Thanks
