Question

Is there a way to enable the default payment types by default?

I am seeking a solution to activate the payment types CC (Credit Card) and Bank Transfer in QuickBooks Online. Currently, I have not been able to identify a method for incorporating these options into new invoices. Could someone provide guidance on how to enable these payment options for future invoices?

Once you have QuickBooks Payments, you'll have the option to permanently enable the default payment methods when creating invoices in QuickBooks Online (QBO), DeveloperIntTX. I'm here to walk you through the process.

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon.
  2. Select Account and settings.
  3. Choose the Sales menu.
  4. Go to the Invoice payments section and enable the Accept Credit Cards and Accept ACH options.
  5. Click Save 
     

After that, you can create an invoice to verify that credit cards and ACH options are automatically enabled.

 

Additionally, QuickBooks gives you the tools to create personalized and professional-looking sales forms, which can enhance your business communications. For a complete guide on how to do this, you can check out this article: Customize invoices, estimates, and sales receipts in QuickBooks Online.

@Rea_M 
Thanks for your help, but i can't see this option in the Sales Section. There isn't the Invoice Payment  in the sales section.

 

Is there a possibility that some configurations are missing?
