Set up Monthly Payments for an Invoice

As I know, QB Payment doesn't provide an installment feature. You can use a proposal management app to integrate with QBO.

We don't have a specific method to pay installments on an invoice in QuickBooks Online (QBO), @NIPPAERO. However, we can set up recurring payments for your customer and link each monthly payment to the invoice. I'd like to share the information below to help you manage your invoices seamlessly.

As an alternative solution, we can set up recurring payments to automatically charge your customer a fixed amount of $200 on a monthly schedule. Once your customer makes these monthly payments, we can match them to the invoice to ensure the remaining balance is accurately tracked.

Before we begin with setting up recurring payments, let's create an invoice for your customer first:

1. Sign in to your QBO account.
2. Go to the Sales tab and select Invoices.
3. Select Create Invoice.
4. Choose the specific customer, then enter the necessary details.
5. In the Amount section, enter the $1000 amount.
6. Once done, click Review and Send.

After sending the invoice, we can proceed with setting up the recurring payments:

1. Go to the Sales tab and select Recurring Payment.
2. Click Create recurring payment.
3. Select the specific customer.
4. Fill out the required fields.
5. Enter $200 in the Amount section.
6. Select Monthly in the Repeat dropdown.
7. If this recurring payment will start on the next month, choose Select future date.
8. Select the Start date for the next month and the End date.
9. In the Every number of months box, enter 5 for a total payment of $1000.
   
   
   
   
10. Click Review and Send.
