Third party pays invoice

I have a unique situation.  The company I work for will issue an invoice  to our client, but sometimes the invoice will be paid by a third party.  Example: Our client is ABC Lawyers, we invoice ABC Lawyers but the cheque to pay the invoice comes from XYZ Insurance Company.  Is there a way other than typing in a memo on the payment to make note that the payment is received from a 3rd party?

Hi there,

 

Congrats on your first post in the Community. I'll be happy to share more info about receiving payments in QuickBooks. 

 

If you're receiving a payment from a customer that isn't listed on the invoice, you'll have to continue using the memo field to indicate that the payment was made by "XYZ Insurance Company". I know how useful it would be for you to have a feature which allows you to take a payment from a third-party. I encourage you to send feedback about this to our engineers. You can do this by clicking the Help menu and looking for Send Feedback Online.
