To view and print your custom invoice layout, go to Sales Invoices (Posted Sales Invoices) > Print Jira Invoice

Also, you can download an Excel file with the timesheets and worklogs (Create Excel toggle): for Monthly Pay - the worklogs for the month invoiced, for Fixed Price - all worklogs, for Daily Pay or Time&Material - the worklogs included in the invoice.
