ZooCity:
here's what our invoices look like.  This is an actual with the contact info changed of course.   You can save/email them in one step out of the program and preview in the email box before sending which is nice.  I use the shipping slips in the print shop to check shirts in/out and include them in the box because they're way cleaner looking and easier to read without all the pricing in there.   I used to invoice out of excel which was laborious by comparison but I thought it looked a lot nicer.

We can make the Saasu invoices look any way we want but I'm just not that great with css.  I did manage to build a proper template and do some very primitive formatting the product of which is what yer seeing here.  I think it's totally rad that the invoices are simply run off code but wish I was skilled that way so I could take full advantage.  There's no design interface to help you along or anything, just straight code, some merge fields and a preview ability.   What I do find ingenious though is that you can build the template and then have multiple options when you click on "print" or "email"  pdf out of the sale itself.  Right now I have invoice and shipping slip setup but I could make one just for internal use, one just for quotes, etc.  Again, no skills so I need to wait on that and find somebody with 'em.   

It's cool to see what everyone elses invoices look like so far, keep 'em coming.

Catnhat:
We have T-Quoter, but don't use it for near what it's capable of doing.  And haven't paid for the support thing when they changed it all up so not sure if we're gonna stick with it or go to something else.
The owners are somewhat of "technophobes" so anything dealing with computers/software is always a struggle.  Cloud computing scares the crap out of them for some reason, but they know it's coming and they'll have to get on board.

But gotta give the guy credit, he's been doing it for so long he can grab the 10 key and a legal pad and pop out a quote as fast as I can fill in the blanks in T-Quoter and get one and the totals will be the same.

Pisses me off!

We use QB for all order entry, invoicing, PO's, estimates, etc.  It took a while but we have most every item we sell inputted.  I like QB because it gives you all the reports/analysis and our accountant of course likes QB too.

Our invoices look like Evo's in many ways.  We use a customized excel ss for quoting.

Scheduling we use Intuit's Company Scheduler which is like a calender, but we came up with a systematic method that let's us track most stages of every job.  It's web/flash based so everyone can see it at the nearest computer, and it self-refreshing so changes are seen pretty much in real time.  It's free with our version of QB.

inkbrigade:
We use fast manager. We looked at all the systems out there aimed at screen printing and it's the one that sucked the least :)

It has some quirks but overall we really like it.

GraphicDisorder:
Using Fast Manager here as well.

It's not perfect but its pretty good for us considering we were doing Excel before that.
