Question

I made changes to a previous vendor payments but they won't save. How do I get QB to save the changes?

I have a vendor that I pay over time so there are many open bills with outstanding balances.  Over time, with applied payments, these balances decrease and are eventually paid off.  I noticed that Quickbooks has changed how I applied payments to older bills. When I go in to correct and change them back to the original applied amounts, I save the transaction but Quickbooks doesn't save my changes.  They keep reverting back to what Quickbooks thinks they should be.  How do I get the system to take my changes?

Let's save the bills by running some troubleshooting steps, NancyF1.

 

There are times that an issue like this occurs when QuickBooks encounters unexpected browser-related crashes. To resolve it, try logging into your account on an incognito window. Here is a list of keyboard shortcuts to open one:

 

  • For Google Chrome: Ctrl Shift N
  • For Mozilla Firefox: Ctrl Shift P
  • For Microsoft Edge: Ctrl Shift P
  • For Safari: Shift N

 

If the bill saves, you can go back to a regular browser and clear its cache. Piled browser history can be the reason for some issues on the page. You may also switch to a different browser like Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, or Microsoft Edge.

 

You can also browse this reference that has detailed information in paying bills: Record payments towards bills.

 

I want to ensure that you're able to continue working on your QuickBooks. That said, let me know how these steps work on your end. I'll be around to help you.
