Attach a document to an invoice

Good day, @Kieron,

Being able to attach files for QuickBooks Self-Employed invoices would be a great idea if added to our program. I am forwarding this feedback to our Development team for consideration in future updates. They strive to meet the needs of our customers by working on the requests sent to them.

As a workaround, you can connect your accounts to download recent transactions, and attach scanned receipts. Here’s how:

1. Go to the Transactions menu.
2. From the Transaction List, locate the income transaction you want to add the receipt.
3. Click the drop-down arrow to open the transaction.
4. Open the file folder where you saved the scanned receipt.
5. Search for the scanned receipt.
6. Click and drag the file you want to add.
7. Drop it on the Receipt field.
8. Click Save.

You can also attach receipts using the mobile app. For the step-by-step instructions, you can read through this article: Enter receipts on your QuickBooks Self-Employed mobile app.

If you have other questions or need further help with the attachments, please mention me anytime. I'll be glad to help whenever you need one. Have a wonderful week!

I produce a time sheet that has multiple items on it to give one figure for the invoice. Is there a way that when the invocie is generated a PDF can be attached

The initial post was to be able to add a time sheet to an invoice for record purposes. Im not able to find the request function to put this through to the developers but see there was a request in one of the responses I wonder if any one can offer any advise

Hello Dave. Please know the instructions provided by my colleague pertain to the web version of QuickBooks Self-Employed. Currently, sending your feedback is unavailable.

In the meantime, I suggest you manually send your timesheets or PDF files to your customers. You can also add a note to your invoices to keep them informed about this process.

Here's how:

1. Head to the Invoices menu.
2. Look for your preferred entry and Edit it.
3. If you want to make a new one, select Create Invoice.
4. On the invoice page, scroll down and enter your notes in the Message section.
   

For future reference, if you'd like to keep a record of your receipts, you can email them to QuickBooks Self-Employed. The system will scan the images and automatically input the details. 

I'm here for you whenever you need extra help managing tasks, specifically with your invoices. Just reach out in this thread anytime, Dave. I'm glad to assist you further. Take care!
