Question

QuickBooks desktop - entering vendor bills in some windows makes the bill double up

On some vendors, when we enter in a bill in the vendor section the vendor bill duplicates.  This does not happen on all vendors, just some.  We have run utilities to reindex/rebuild.

 

The file is very large and I'm thinking this is a data file pointer problem and thatn compressing the file will help.

 

Any other thoughts? As I've never seen this before.

Hello, SusanBradleyCPA.

 

I appreciate the steps you've taken to resolve this.

 

Currently, we have received reports from other users experiencing the same issue. A ticket has been created and forwarded to our product engineers, who are actively working on resolving this issue as quickly as they can.

 

As a workaround, fill out the bill form from the bottom up to avoid this error. That means add the expenses or items at the bottom of the form before entering the vendor or amount due at the top of the form. You can also turn off the preference for Automatically remember transaction information.

 

In addition, I recommend reaching out to our Support team so that they can include your information in our notification list. This will assist our engineers in assessing the number of users affected. Rest assured, once the issue is resolved, you will receive an email notification.

We already did this.  The only thing we have not done is compress the file.

It's a bug introduced in the latest release of QuickBooks. It has nothing to do with your company file.
