Pricing Rules Don't Work with New Invoice Layout

We have customers who pay different rates for the same product or service. So I activated Pricing Rules beta and created a rule for a given customer (ACME) a specific product (Widget A).

The regular unit price for Widget A is $150. But for ACME, they pay $100 for Widget A. So I created a pricing rule that applies only to ACME individually and only to Widget A individually. The price adjustment method is Custom price per item and the Start and End dates are blank which means the rule never expires. 

 

I create a new invoice for ACME and add the Widget A under Product or service. The price for Widget A is the default $150 and not $100 as per pricing rule.

This is using the the New Invoice Layout. But if I switch the Old Invoice Layout, it works. How can I get it to work with the new invoice format?

Hi there, @RickMeister.

 

I appreciate you for using the New Invoice Layout in QuickBooks. I'm here to help guide you with your price rules for invoices.

 

At this time, the New Invoice Layout does not support Price Rules. This is why the price rule created did not work in your invoice and used the default one.

 

For now, you can switch to the old invoice look by selecting Old Layout from the upper right-hand corner of a new invoice. From there, you can continue creating invoices with price rules. For more details about creating invoices and price rules, see these articles:

That's too bad. I was hoping to take advantage of the new layout as the stock invoices for the old layout aren't great. 

 

Is pricing rules going to be available for the new invoice layout? Is this a planned feature?

Why bother having them if we cannot even use them? These are a crucial piece to our business and we are crippled without it. We are now having to look into additional applications and costs just to do the basic functions we have been using for years. When are these going to be available?
