I use a template with mailmerge fields (date, number, name, address,...)
Is there a way to save a copy of that document with the merged fields fixed
?

I had the SAME question last week!
Graham Mayor responded with :

Break the link with Excel - CTRL+A then CTRL+SHIFT+F9
or by macro

Sub BreakLink()
Selection.WholeStory
Selection.Fields.Unlink
End Sub

You could incorporate this in the file save routine in your invoice template

Sub FileSave()
Selection.WholeStory
Selection.Fields.Unlink
ActiveDocument.Save
End Sub

Good luck!

Hi Gilbert,

If you create a new document based on the template, then use Ctrl-A to select it all, followed by Ctrl-Shift-F9 to convert the
fields to text, that will 'fix' the mergefields.

Cheers
