Shortest possible step:

Business -> Customer -> New Invoice
[Select Customer]
"Cash"
[Search]
<Click on Bash customer, already created>
[OK]  (I think -- it might be a different button to select the customer)
[OK]
<Click in Description>
"Your Description Here"
<Tab> ...
<Choose your Income Account, e.g. Income:Sales>
<Enter your qty and price, and a tax table if necessary>
Repeat until all entries are input
[Post]
<Select your A/R account>
[OK]
[Print] (to create the Invoice Report)
[Print] (to print the Invoice Report)

But if this is a Cash Sale, then you'll also immediately want to Process
Payment to Assets:Cash.  It's a lot of work for a cash sale.  You're much
better off using something else to generate your invoices.  The point of
GnuCash invoices is when you actually have receivables.  It's not meant
for a Point of Sale system.
