I have added a footer to the bottom of my invoice, but the invoice is two pages long and the footer is on both pages. How can I change this?

What a gigantic crapfest this software is.  Xero maybe ?  I'm actively looking into it.

I am no fan of Quickbooks for reasons like this.  And been using it for years.  How can such a leading app be so deaf?  And after sooo many years of existence, they still don't get things right?

I am using Desktop Pro 2020.  I have a template for invoices.  I had an item I would manually add to each invoice with some stock info about services we do.  Years I was doing that.

Finally opened the template and there was text about 'thank you for your business'.  Not sure if that's how it came from Quickbooks eons ago when we started with quickbooks.

Just recently I stretched that box, removed the border, etc. and put that text in there.

I just noticed on a multi page invoice that the text prints ONLY ON THE LAST PAGE.  The exact opposite of the issue you guys are having.  I went into settings to see if there was a way to toggle - all pages / only last page.

Didn't see that, googled and found your page.

So for you guys wanting to only print on last page - see if what I was describing makes any sense / you can use that.

And yeah, I have too much text in that box.  I have to change that.  I did this a few weeks ago.

So how do I get it to print on each page like you guys did?

I tried this. It is not giving me the option to print the balance on the last page only.  It looks really unprofessional.

Thanks for joining the thread, Duncano. Let me help you out in resolving the issue with the footer, total balance, sub total and VAT balance not showing any value on your invoices.

First, I'd like to ask if this is happening to all your sales forms or if there is any error message prompting on the screen when you try to input the values on your forms. Any further details and screenshots will greatly help us narrow down the solutions to your concern. 

In the meantime, ensure that your sales tax rate is properly set up as well as the Tax box being ticked when creating your invoices so that your tax values are properly applied. Here's how to add a tax rate and agency:

1. Go to Taxes, then select Sales tax.
2. Under the Related Tasks list on the right, select Add/edit tax rates and agencies.
3. Click New and choose either a single or a combined tax rate.
4. Enter a name for the tax agency you pay, and the percentage for the rate. Use a single rate if you pay just one rate to a single agency.
5. Select Save.

You can find more information about setting up sales tax on this article. Feel free to check it out: Set up your sales tax in QuickBooks Online.

On the other hand, if the footer on your invoices are not showing on the form, ensure that it is properly customized. Follow these steps to customize them:

1. Go to Settings. Under your company, click Custom form Styles.
2. Choose the specific template and click Edit. 
3. Select the Content column and click the last part of the form.
4. Here you can edit or Add a footer text. 
5. Once everything is complete, select Done.

Feel free to refer to these screenshots for a visual guide:

If you've tried the options above and it the issue persists, open your account in an incognito browser and repeat the steps. If this works, then the issue lies on your regular browser. You'll want to clear your regular browser cache to refresh it.
