Steed is the chap making out the invoices (7)
I believe the answer is:
charger
'steed' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
I can't explain the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for charger that I've seen before include "Horse; flat dish" , "Battle horse" , "Horse - plate" , "could be of use to battery" , "that would prevent loss of power?" .)
