Question

New Layout reverting back by itself??

I have QB Online and updated to the "new layout" a couple weeks ago.  This past week I tried to generate some invoices and estimates and they were back in the "old layout".  When I clicked on the "upgrade to new layout" button it temporarily converts to the new layout and then immediately reloads to the old one again.  It does this on multiple browsers as well as different computers.  Can someone please point me in the right direction?

I appreciate you sharing details of your concern and the steps you've performed to help isolate the issue, @Jczepiel.

 

I know a possible reason why you don't have the option to revert to the new invoice experience in QuickBooks Online (QBO). Allow me to provide a more detailed explanation.

 

It's possible that you unintentionally switched back to the old invoice layout, which would explain why you no longer have the option to return to the new experience.
 

According to the latest update, customers who have switched back from the new invoice experience to the old layout will no longer be able to revert to the new layout. The ability to switch between layouts is still being rolled out, so I recommend waiting for the feature to be updated and automatically added to your QuickBooks account.

 

For the time being, you might consider exploring this website to acquire details regarding our latest improvements and advancements: New features in QuickBooks.

It's not a big deal but I can assure you I didn't switch it back to the old layout.  Also, on a side note - it does still give me the option to switch to the new layout but seems to glitch up when it tries to do so.

New layout now can not be changed back but it has all kinds of issues. Sales tax can not be removed from a line item. You can not add spacing between lines items. The only way to use the new features to preview email and pdf is using the one modern template but its only good for a single page. If your quote goes ot 2 pages it just cuts it in half no header like the old template. My quotes look like a 5 year old was made them. I seriously just started using a free program to make quotes because Quickbooks is so broken. What a screw up.

Here it is late May and this problem still exists.  I have to say that Intuit is pretty much the worst I've ever dealt with.  The level of incompetence is breathtaking.

June 6th 2024, issue persists. 

 

Windows 11 24H2

Chrome version 125.0.6422.141

Have tried incognito, clearing website data, alternate browsers, different computers

 

Earlier this year, clicking "Update Layout" brought me to the new page and stayed. As of 2 months ago, clicking on updated layout brought me to the new page for 3 seconds, then reverted to old layout without saying anything.

I have the issue on safari also, called support they said it’s b/c I’m not using chrome.  Very frustrated will all the bugs recently and nothing being done.  Was told there is no open item to look into the issue and since I’m not using chrome they can’t trouble shoot.  Also having issues with everything defaulting to taxable.  Again, they can’t recreate so it’s my browser, even though multiple users reporting the issue here.
