Question

When I make out an invoice I select the rate and the quantity of hours being billed. When I send the invoice to a client the rate and quantity does not show up?

Is there a rough estimate of when this will be resolved? It’s very frustrating and looks unprofessional with the lack of information on the invoice.

    What is the solution here? This is absurd. I cannot bill my customers properly and am doing hundreds of manual transactions adding details in descriptions. I have lost thousands of dollars. About to dump this platform.

      Hello there, DeviNET. I understand that you need an immediate response to this matter. This will allow you to bill your customers accurately in QuickBooks without having to manually add the details in the descriptions when creating a transaction.

       

      After reviewing our records, I can confirm that the investigation is still ongoing. While we don't have a specific timeframe for the resolution, please be assured that we are actively working on a solution to prevent future occurrences.

       

      If you haven't been added, please give us a call so that we can include you in our list of affected users. You may follow the steps shared by Rea_M above on how to reach our support team or click this link: QuickBooks Online Support.

       

      For now, we can follow the workaround provided by our Engineering team. Simply make the product and service item inactive, and then recreate it as a new one.

       

      Before doing so, you can’t inactivate default items (automatically created with the company) such as Services and Hours. Instead, you can add Z at the beginning to make them appear at the bottom of the lists.

       

      Here's how:

       

      1. Go to the Gear icon⚙, then select Products & services.
      2. Select the items(s) that you want to make inactive.
      3. In Batch actions, select Make inactive.
      4. Select Yes.

       

      For more details on how to make inactive and reactivate your product and services, see this article: Remove a product or service in QuickBooks Online.

       

      On the other hand, you can refer to these articles for more tips on handling your bill transactions and personalizing your sales forms to include specific information:

       

       

      I appreciate you're patience while we're working through this. Don't hesitate to visit the Community again if you have other QuickBooks concerns. I'm always ready to assist you further.

      Is there any update on this problem!? It’s been quite a few weeks and the issue still remains. It seems like there should be a solution at this point.
