The QBO iOS app enters payment date incorrectly and consistently 1 day early. This is the same on both iPad and iPhone but not online. What is the solution to this?

It's essential to ensure that your QuickBooks Online app in iOS is kept up to date to avoid any potential issues when working with your QBO, @Sq9. Let me elaborate on this.


If you're experiencing incorrect dates when managing payments in QBO, I recommend verifying that your QuickBooks app is up to date. It can help address any unusual behavior you've been encountering. Additionally, it's advisable to check the setup of your date and time in your iOS settings to identify and correct any issues.


If you're still encountering the same issue, you can perform application troubleshooting to refresh your data and ensure you're viewing the latest available information in your QuickBooks Online app. Here's how you can do that:
 

  1. In Settings, click General.
  2. Tap iPhone Storage and choose the QuickBooks Online app.
  3. To free up the storage without deleting your app's documents and data, hit Offload App.

 

If the problem continues even after following the provided instructions, I suggest uninstalling the app and then reinstalling it. This process will ensure that you have the latest version of the application, which can help resolve any issues you may be encountering.

 

On a related note, I've also included an article that can assist with handling bill payments in QBO: Enter and manage bills and bill payments in QuickBooks Online.


I'll be on the lookout for your reply to see if there's anything else you need regarding the payment date in QBO or if you have any other topics to discuss. Take care.

I appreciate the steps you've taken so far to address the incorrect payment date you are currently having. Let me share my thoughts about this that can help you.

 

You'll want to double-check the default time zone set on your iOS device. The selected time settings will be recorded as your payment date when you enter a payment in your QBO app.

 

In the meantime, you can enter or record payments through your mobile browser instead of using the app. Log in to your QBO account using Safari and your login credentials.

 

Here's an article you can use in the future as you go through your sales receipts and invoice payments: Edit a sales receipt or invoice payment using the QuickBooks Online mobile app.

I appreciate your reply.

The time zones are automatically set on both devices and are correct.

I'm aware I can record expenses via the mobile browser, however this negates the value of an accounting app which cannot record the correct date.
