Thanks for joining us here, rvitullo.

In QuickBooks Desktop, we can only create an Estimate that will serve as a draft Invoice. This, can be turned into an invoice later.

Here's how:

1. From the Customers menu, select Estimates/Create Estimates.
2. Select a customer on the Customer: Job drop-down menu.
3. Enter the necessarily required field.
4. Click on Save and close.

I'll take note of your feedback concerning the draft invoice. That way, our engineers might consider adding the feature on future updates. 

I encourage you to visit our QuickBooks blog page to keep with the recent news and product release.
