Change expense to income in the app

I received an email from ebay informing me that I had made a sale. I forwarded it to the QB receipts email address but QB recorded it as an expense rather than income. I was able to edit the amount in the Android app on my phone (which I didn't need to do) but was unable to delete the minus sign. In the end I used the laptop app to delete the minus sign. Is this a glitch in the phone app or was I not muttering the correct incantation at the time?

Six weeks later and this glitch is still not fixed.


I appreciate you taking time to check this out, davepearson.

 

Since the previous troubleshooting steps did not work, we can try deleting and manually creating these transactions instead.

 

For your reference on how to manually add transactions in QuickBooks Self Employed, check out this guide: Manually add transactions in QuickBooks Self-Employed.

 

It would be great if you'd let me know the results. I want to make sure everything is working fine. Take care and have a good one!

Hey there, davepearson.

 

So far, we haven't received any similar issues reported. Performance issues in QuickBooks application are resolved by doing basic troubleshooting steps. Let's try to uninstall and reinstall the app and try to change the amount.

 

To learn more about QuickBooks app and forward receipts feature, check out these articles:

 

However, if you're still unable to edit the amount, I'd suggest getting in touch with our QuickBooks Self-Employed Support for further investigation.

 

In case you want to know some "How do I" steps in QuickBooks Online, you can always visit our Help Articles page for reference.

 

Let me know how it goes by leaving a reply below. I'd be glad to provide additional assistance.

Thanks for that helpful response. Reinstalling the app didn't change things so I contacted Customer Support. They asked for a screenshot and then replied with "This feature is currently not available in the mobile app but only on the computer/laptop".

 

So there you go, it can't be done. Good to know.
