The 'New Invoice' button creates an empty (ad hoc) Invoice (with out any data as far as billings added yet) which allows you to add 'line items' (from the detail page) to charge for services rendered or expenses incurred- that may have not been created as billings yet. Once you have added the line items then you can click print from the invoice detail page and create the finished Invoice.
