Question

Can I get QB Online to auto-fill the PO field on invoices to the same customer/job? This worked automagically in QB Desktop.

I perform hourly services against a purchase order from a customer. When I used QB Desktop and created an invoice for this job and filled in the PO number on the invoice, future invoices on the same customer/job would remember the PO number and auto-fill it on the invoice. That does not seem to work in QB Online.

Hello, @steve-riverace

 

The option in QuickBooks Online (QBO) where the PO field on invoices is automatically filled based on previous entries for the same customer:job is currently unavailable. That would be a great addition to the current features that we have, so I'll take note of it. 

 

I also encourage you to leave the feedback from within the product. Here are the steps:

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon and select Feedback.
  2. Provide your product suggestion. 
  3. Click on Next to submit feedback. 

 

You can check out this article for more information about providing feedback to make the program better: How do I submit feedback?.

 

Refer to the following article on how to update the status of a purchase order and add it to a bill: Create and send purchase orders in QuickBooks Online.

 

Let me know in the Reply section below if you need further information about invoices and purchase orders in QuickBooks Online. I'm always here to answer them for you. Have a great rest of the day!
