QuickBooks Q&A

When you look at the return to 31.5.25 you will see an extra column “Open transaction” where it entered £25,825 vat due and £14,436 vat reclaimed. I assume it attempted to pick up all the Vat on invoices still outstanding at that date that hadn’t been paid (to move away from the cash basis). I couldn’t get the details or a report for that column

A customer has made a duplicate payment and wants to leave it as a credit on their account. How do I process this to remove it from the bank transactions?

where has all my info gone that i entered for the old system ?

I just want to back how it used to be

Hi everyone, relative QB newbie here, so after some help please.  I have just realised that I have been entering my credit card expenses incorrectly.  I have been recording the actual transactions / receipts under expenses, but then entering the payment to my credit card company as an expense too, so my bank is way out.  From step one, can anyone talk me through how I can sort this out / move the transactions to the correct area, so my bank balances? Thanks in advance. 

Is it something in the settings? Any help would be appreciated.

HiI want to set up some recurring estimates for some of my customers that have a certain product renewal every year, i can set up a recurring estimate but there doesn't seem to be the check box to send these out automatically which is what i want to do, otherwise it seems pointless setting up a recurring estimate as i still have to go in and manually send the estimate every year. Does anyone have any idea how i can do this. Thanks in advance Mark.

I use both Jobber and GoCardless integrations with QuickBooks Online. Recently I've noticed that some invoices show as paid in GoCardless, but remain marked as unpaid in QuickBooks Online. Jobber is also connected to QuickBooks, so I'm wondering whether the issue could be related to one of the integrations, payment matching, or a sync conflict between Jobber and GoCardless. Has anyone experienced this setup before? How can I determine whether the problem is with the GoCardless integration, the Jobber integration, or QuickBooks itself? Any troubleshooting advice would be appreciated.

Issue can be seen on any help page.

If Customise forms does not appear in my settings how can I customise them?

I've added categories when I add them as expenses (so tools, materials etc) but then they all appear in the phone, fax stationery and other office costs on the submission page

I had Claude working with QBO but now when it attempts to connect I get this "error" message "Unfortunately, the app you’ve selected isn’t available for use in your country. Try contacting the app publisher for more information, or select a different app to use in QuickBooks. We’re sorry for the inconvenience." However, I'm in the UK and it was working fine. Something maybe worth noting when I go to the Help, it goes to US not UK (don't know if that has anything to do with it).
