You've come to the right place, @punitha-qb.

 

In addition to Rustler, you can consider adding a custom field to your invoice and sales receipt. This way, you'll still be able to add the unit (Sqft, Cuft, or Lft) to the invoice. Let's go to your Account and Settings and add a custom field from there. I'd be glad to guide you how.

 

In your QuickBooks Online (QBO) account:

  1. Go to the Gear icon.
  2. Select Account and Settings.
  3. Choose the Sales menu.
  4. Select the Sales form content.
  5. Put a checkmark on the Custom fields section. 
  6. Click Save, and hit Done. 

Here's an article you can use as reference that can guide you on how to personalize your invoice: Customize invoices, estimates, and sales receipts in QuickBooks Online.

 

I'm also adding this useful article that can help you view and send to your customer their balances: Create and view customer statements.

I think they wanted to add columns in the middle section of the invoice. So they could bill per soft, etc. I have that same question. I'd like to put a units column in the billing section.

Any update on adding a column in the middle of a invoice.  We are migrating to online from desktop pro.    Desktop allows for this and many more invoice customizing features.
