I’ve upgraded from self employed to sole trader but none of my paid invoices are showing as paid. How do change this so my figures are correct?

Hello there, Nicola24. The two platforms handle invoices differently, especially when it comes to marking them as paid. In QuickBooks Self-Employed, you just click the "Mark as Paid" option to update the status. However, in QuickBooks Sole Trader, you'll need to link the invoice to the downloaded payment transaction.

 

To correct your figures, here’s how to mark the invoice as paid:

 

  1. Go to the Get paid tab, and select Invoices.
  2. In the Action column, click Record payment.
  3. Choose an account from the Deposit To drop-down menu.
  4. You can filter by date using the Sort and Filter drop-down to find the payment transactions that need to be linked.
  5. Check the box for the payment transaction, then click Save.

 

After completing these steps, the invoice status will change to Deposited, which means it is paid. You can double-check to confirm it's marked as paid by viewing it.

 

You can follow the steps outlined above for the other invoices too.
