Hi,

Im trying to import a custom form style I have made in Word, but when I follow the methods on the QBO tutorials the options are not available to me. I have the plus version of quickbooks online. There is no option in the quick books lab to enable importing styles and on the custom form styled page when i click new style the import option isnt there.

What am I doing wrong?

Hi there, @MattBoyle.

First off, I appreciate the amount of effort you've done, so far. The Import Styles feature is unavailable for QuickBooks Online accounts created from 29/06/2021 and onwards. It was a beta feature which was in our labs section. Existing accounts can still save and upload DOCX templates. Also, you can still customize your invoices by using the custom templates inside your QuickBooks account.

To create a new template, here's how:

Go to the Gear icon and then select Custom form style.
Select New Style.
Select a sales form type you want to create a template for.

To customise the appearance of your invoice, these are the steps:

Select the Design tab and then give your template a name.
Select Change up the template to choose a layout. These layouts are fixed. We recommend using the Airy new. Please note that if you plan to use Stock Keeping Units (SKUs) or create progress invoices, you have to use the Airy new design.
Select Make logo edits to upload a new logo. You can then select the size of the three options offered: S, M, or L as well as change the placement of the logo.
Select and pick a colour scheme. You can enter a HEX code (the six-digit combination of numbers and letters for a colour) for a truly custom colour.
Click on Select a different font to change the font and the size.
Select Edit print settings to adjust the margins. This is important if you send printed forms to your customers.

For more information, you can refer to this article about how to customise invoices, estimates, and sales receipts in QuickBooks Online.

Thanks for the response, disappointing as it is. I must say the whole system seems like it is unfinished and still in development and as such we have made the decision to use sage instead.

can you please let me know how to cancel our trial period and remove our payment details
