How do I change back my invoice to unpaid, I accidentally hit paid by mistake and I need to change it back

I'm here to help you mark your invoice unpaid, adamr1.

 

In QuickBooks Online, we'll have to delete the invoice payment to change its status back to unpaid. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to Get paid & pay and then select Customers.
  2. Select Customers.
  3. Choose the customer and locate the invoice payment.
  4. Click View/Edit.
  5. Select More and then Delete.
  6. Click Yes to confirm.

 

Additionally, I've added these articles that'll help you manage and track a customer overpayment in QuickBooks Online:

How do I change back my invoice to unpaid, I accidentally hit paid by mistake and I need to change it back

Quickbooks had an update that change the way this screen looks...there is no longer a "1 payment" link - now just a filled green circle with "Paid in Full" beside it...no clickable link

 

Any ideas?

Let me join the thread and give details about the payment link in the invoice, sales286.

 

If you're using QuickBooks Online (QBO) Australia, please know you'll still be able to see the payment link in the invoice page. Please ensure you've selected the correct customer when you record the payment within the program.

 

Here's a visual reference:

Based on your scenario, it seems you utilize the QBO US version because you have the updated invoice layout. If yes, you're correct that there's no longer a 1 Payment link in the invoice template after releasing the new invoice experience. However, you can track it in the Sales menu instead. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Sales menu, then choose Invoices.
  2. Locate and click the transaction.
  3. A window will appear.
  4. In the Invoice activity section, hit the View payment link.

You can also send invoices over time as you work off an estimate in QuickBooks to collect partial payments from your customers. Visit the article below based on your region:
