Set default "invoice date" to the last day of the month?

QuickBooks Online (QBO) has no built-in feature to automatically set the invoice date to the last day of the month for all invoices, Jam. However, we can implement a few strategies to streamline the process and ensure you manage your invoicing process more effectively. Let me guide you through the process.

If you have clients you bill regularly at the end of the month, we can set them up as recurring invoices. During setup, specify the last day of the month as the invoice date.

Here's how:

1. Go to the Gear icon.
2. Select Recurring Transactions.
3. Select New.
4. Choose Invoice.
5. Then set the frequency to Monthly and the Next Date to the last day of the current month.
