Allow me to share some information about your concern, @slalomskie.
To begin with, may I ask if your customer made a partial payment, which makes you want to see the outstanding balance? If so, please know that we don't have the option to do this in QuickBooks Self-Employed.
As a workaround, we can enter your customer's partial payment as negative.
Here's how:
- Navigate to Invoice.
- Choose the invoice with partial payment, then click Edit.
- Add another line item with the same item.
- Enter the amount of the payment as Negative.
After this, you can categorize the transaction payment as Income.
I've added some screenshots for your visual reference:
Additionally, you can use Schedule C to report your income and expenses.
Let me know if you have further concerns about invoice payment or any QuickBooks-related concerns.
