Invoices - Change Column widths on invoice template
On the invoice template there is a lot of 'white space', particularly to the right of the Product Description, which frequently wraps to a second line. The Product Item code also wraps to a second line on occasions. The Quantity, Unit Price, Discount and VAT columns could be reduced in width to allow for the increase in Item and Description fields.

Hi community, we're currently working on some improvements to the table/grid within new invoicing that'll provide better visibility of details.
While we won't be enabling customers the ability to adjust columns widths yourself, we're making changes that'll condense the view so you can see more at once, such as the full account name. We'll also be shifting some of the detail shown beneath the description into columns of their own for ease of view. I'll come back to share as there's more news.

Can the invoices 'description' column be adjustable? When adding a large description, the text all jams up together (goes to a new line at every third or fourth word due to the column width) and looks unsightly for the customer and when printed.

We would need the Item Code displayed in full; currently ours are 22 characters in length. Or at minimum a pop out on hover function to display the full contents.

Yes I agree. The Account column is too narrow so it would be good to adjust this. A lot of our clients copy invoices so if they cannot clearly see the account allocations it will cause errors as quite a few accounts that they use begin with the same words.
