Restoring costs/time for a deleted invoice but it was a direct deposit being billed to another company.

Hi,

 

I deleted an invoice that I created to a customer. It was a part of a check that needed to be billed to one of our other companies. I would usually go to the bill and uncheck the billed status, but with this paycheck there is no such column. How do I restore those billable time/costs?

 

I use QB desktop enterprise.

You've come to the right place of support, MzKay. Together, we can work to restore the billable time and costs, ensuring your financial records are clear and accurate. Beforehand, I'd like to share some information that'll guide us through this process.

 

You’ll need to go to the Weekly Timesheet or Time/Enter Single Activity page, depending on how you track your costs and time. From there, simply uncheck the Billable column for the relevant entries. It's important to note that changes made to the timesheet before or after the paycheck was created will not affect the existing paycheck transaction. Therefore, your paycheck will remain unchanged. 

 

To make adjustments, follow these steps:

 

  1. Go to the Employees menu and hit Enter Time.
  2. Select Use Weekly Timesheet or Time/Enter Single Activity.
  3. Choose the associated Name from the dropdown menu.
  4. Entries will populate, and tick the Billable column from the associated time/cost.
  5. A prompt will appear, then click Yes.  

 

Additionally, you have the option to recreate the deleted invoice if needed. To assist you in this process, you can refer to the Audit Trail report, which provides a detailed record of all transactions and changes made.

We do not use the weekly timesheets in QB. Will this still work?

I'm glad you've joined this thread, @MzKay. I'd like to know how you track your costs and time for the deleted invoice. Also, it will still work if you use the Time/Enter Single Activity instead of Weekly Timesheet

 

Make sure to select the correct name to populate the fields. Then, tick the Billable button before clicking the Save & Close

 

However, suppose the paycheck associated with this has already been processed. In that case, I recommend contacting QuickBooks Desktop Payroll support to guide you on the best action to restore the deleted invoice connected with the submitted paycheck.
