The advantage of getting the invoices in a spreadsheet is that, as far as I can
tell (haven’t tested this) you can put the whole string of invoices in one
file. Each line in the file has a field for invoice number, and I believe if
you change the number it creates an additional invoice. So if
There are a number of fields which are “descriptive” in one way or another,
such that editing these fields outside Gnucash poses to risk to the integrity
of the data. The developers know best which fields these are. A number of users
have developed external means of editing databases (and I

Writing to the db is considered risky at this time. (and not supported)
Reading is fine though.

(also permitted by HMRC as I understand it) or input the rate manually it still
has to be confirmed for each invoice when posting in Gnucash.

Thanks for the suggestion, Adrien. I’ve got entering the invoice data into
Gnucash down to a fine art (especially with the recent “predictive text” input
in my “product” fields! Thanks again for that, whoever it was!). It is
specifically the step to confirm the exchange rate when posting an

Samantha, you can import invoice data.
Thus, if you have a way to easily create that data in a spreadsheet, you
can save it as CSV, then import them to GnuCash.
See the Help/Guide about importing business data for the required columns.
I'm not certain if it works well with a foreign currency
I’d find a “batch post invoice” function enormously helpful. I have a foreign
currency client who insists on a separate invoice for each (sometimes
inconsequential) amount and the multiple clicks to post the invoice and confirm
the exchange rate for each one are time consuming.
