Most formatting that you add with the text editor, including the table format, does not display on invoices that you print from Vision. However, the formatting does display when you preview or download the invoices. This is due to limitations in Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services.
By default, a default invoice template will be shown with HTML formatting in this field.

Invoice Template

From the drop-down list, select the invoice template to use when an invoice is created for the project. The list can include default templates provided by Deltek and custom templates that you create with the Invoice Template Editor.

Invoice Template drop-down list. When you use the
Default template for credit memos, the credit memo displays a Credit Memo box at the top, instead of an Invoice Box.
If your firm sets up
