We tried to process invoices from supplier to automatically record in QuickBooks to lessen the need of manual posting

You'll want to double-check the file type and visibility of the invoices, Rjamilarin. Let me share the specifics below.

 

When processing automation invoices from suppliers, are you referring to the receipt forwarding, snap receipt, or manually uploading bills/receipts? Please know that your clarification can help me provide a more accurate resolution for your situation.

 

QuickBooks Online reads the uploaded bills, extracts information, and automatically matches it to a transaction. For your first question, the system may fail to read the VAT portion if the uploaded document is not in a compatible format or does not display the amount clearly.

 

To correct this issue, ensure that the photo's file type is PDF, JPEG, JPG, GIF, and PNG. If you have HEIC images from a newer iPhone or iPad, you can convert HEIC images to a compatible format. Although this lessens your manual posting, I still recommend reviewing them for accurate records and entering the amount not recognised in the meantime.

 

Here are some references for more detailed information about these matters:

 

 

Once done, refer to this article to add or match the attachments to the existing entries in the program: Categorise online bank transactions in QuickBooks.

 

You're always welcome to reach out to me again for further questions about bills. Do you have inquiries about supplier management? I'd be delighted to answer them for you.
