Quickbooks self-employed - amending invoice paid date

MJoy_D · ‎July 13, 2023

I can share some information about invoices in QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE), @-Colin-.

At this time, it'll show the date when you mark the invoice as Paid. The option to set the date when it has been paid will be a great addition to the current features that we have, so I'll take note of it. Our developers might introduce this feature in the future. I also encourage you to leave feedback from within the product.

Simply follow the steps below:

Go to the Assistant button from the top bar.
Enter Send feedback from the chatbox.
Click on Add a feature and enter your suggestion.

For now, you can visit the QuickBooks Blog to check for new updates and features that we have.

Here are also some of the articles that can help you achieve basic tasks in QBSE: QuickBooks Self-Employed Help articles.

Let me know if you have questions about your invoices. I'm always her to help. Have a great rest of the day!

I realise that you are just a bot with the sarcasm option turned up to 11, but if you were a human with a bit of empathy, you'd be aware how deeply irritating your comment is. You're making the same response as the Intuit bots made OVER 4 YEARS AGO when this bug was first pointed out to you!

For me, because of this bug, this software is entirely unusable. You offer no support. You've wasted 2 days of my life. I am cancelling my subscription and am going to try Wave. Now go and stand in the bot corner and think about what you've done..

So what I'm seeing is that in over 4 years Quickbooks Self-Employed has not fixed this simple problem that has a massive fiscal impact on users. I just came across this thread. I wasn't happy about not being able to modify my payment date to when it was actually received (I have clients paying via check, EFT, their internal systems, QB etc,), but I lived with that function not being present and accepted it. I came across this thread because I had inadvertently marked an invoice paid that was not and have NO WAY of removing that "payment". I was searching out if others have had success in fixing this issue. I just had to send a client a "please disregard QB saying its paid I have no way to fix it in their system" email....

Essentially I need an Excel spreadsheet to keep track of what I'm paying Quickbooks to do each month. I understand this is a simple program, but if you aren't advancing/improving it, why am I and others paying a monthly fee? Shouldn't it just be a one time cost for the completed software? I guess I need to look into the other programs that people have discussed on this forum such as Wave for the upcoming year.

Has anything been done about this? I'm trying to do the same as I errantly marked something as paid today that was paid 2 years ago. This cannot happen and will interfere with proper accounting.

Hello there, @t-kriley. This isn't the experience we want you to experience.

Currently, it's still not possible to edit the date when you mark an invoice as paid. It will show the date when you click on Mark as paid.

Additionally, you can check this article on managing your invoices: Easy Invoicing In QuickBooks Self-Employed.

Please don't hesitate to reach out to us if you have any other concerns or questions about your invoices. We are always here to help you out.
