Question

I've been asked to submit an application rather than an invoice to a company we sub contract to. Can I do this with QuickBooks?

Welcome to Community, @ehsnortheast-hot. I’m here to help you with your question about the applications you need to make for the payments.

 

I need more information about the application you mentioned to provide accurate resolution. Are you referring to a direct deposit and are they set up as contractors in your QuickBooks? Any additional information is much appreciated.

 

However, you may have a construction management app with the subcontractor billing management feature to integrate with your QBO. You can also utilize a 3rd party app that you integrate with QuickBooks, check this page: QuickBooks Apps.

 

Feel free to leave a comment below if you have any other QuickBooks-related concerns. I'm more than happy to assist you every step of the way. Take care and have a great weekend ahead.

Hi @ehsnortheast-hot 

 

An Application for Payment (under Construction Act) is more like a Progress Invoice - QBO can do these if you turn on in Settings.

Whether it satisfies the requirements of the Contractor is another thing - the format for Applications is usually laid down in the Contract.

 

You might be able to modify a Quote/Estimate to suit but these will not post to your accounts - at some point you will have to create an invoice in order to enter into QBO.

 

Hope this helps.

Hello Ehsnortheast-hot, thanks for posting on the community page, there is no direct way to do an application in QuickBooks, so you could do an estimate/quote for them and then you will be able to turn this into an invoice at a later date.
