Hello melodiemueller78,
Getting a handle on the terms QuickBooks Online uses for your various transactions is ideal for keeping track of your transaction statuses and understanding your data. I can help you with sorting this out.
Another user asked a similar question a little while ago and I recommend taking a look at the response I gave them. In that response, I explained why you'll see paid or closed and included a screenshot with an example of what I mean. Check it out here: Some of my invoices state paid and others state closed. how do I change the status from paid to clos...
I'm here if you'd like to go over this further, but that should get you on your way.
Enjoy your day!
