I need to be able to factor in a 1% discount when paying a vendor bill while using Quickbooks bill pay service and I keep getting an error message. I've seen where others just change the payment to check but I am paying ACH and really need this feature to operate correctly. Any suggestions without having to create new line items and/or causing more bookkeeping info to find and track?

We're unable to apply the 1% discount automatically when paying bills via ACH, @arkvalleyinfo. It's always our aim to develop relevant features that come from customer feedback.

 

I know how important it is to automatically apply a net discount to vendor bills in QuickBooks Desktop. However, this option is currently unavailable.

 

I do agree with you that adding more customizations and functionality would make the program better and more flexible. You'll want to send your idea to our developers by following the steps below:

 

  1. Go to the Help icon.
  2. Select Send Feedback Online.
  3. Click Product Suggestion and enter your ideas.
  4. Tap Send Feedback.

 

Please know that we’re unable to provide a specific time frame as to when this feature will be available. I also encourage you to visit our QuickBooks Blog page so you'll be updated on the program's new release features and enhancements.

 

For additional information, you can open this article: Pay bills in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

Please refer to this article for steps on how you can set up Online Bill Pay so you can directly pay your vendor bills in QuickBooks: Use Online Bill Pay in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

I'm always here to help if you have any other concerns in QuickBooks aside from adding auto-discount. I'll make sure to get back to you as quickly as I can.
