Why do my newly created invoices to suppliers show "paid" when its a new invoice being created?

Hello, 

Thanks for reaching out to us here on the Community. I'd be happy to explain why your new invoices may be marked as paid. 

Invoicing your customers and receiving payments is a fundamental aspect of running a business. It's important that you're able to accurately track your invoices and payments. QuickBooks Online offers automation features, including the ability to automatically apply credits to your invoices. This may mark your invoice as paid when you create it. 

To turn off automation settings, follow these steps: 

1. Click the Gear icon. 

2. Select Account and Settings. 

3. Click Advanced.

4. Under Automation, turn off the settings of your choosing by clicking the pencil icon.

5. Click Done. 

Now that those settings have been turned off, you'll have to manually select credits when creating an invoice. 

If your invoices are still being marked as paid after turning off these settings, please let me know. I'm here to help.

Cheers.
