How do i add a subtotal line within the body of an invoice in the new quickbooks online invoice format.

I can share some information about adding subtotal lines in invoices, @AlpineApp

 

Currently, the new invoice layout on QuickBooks Online (QBO) doesn't have the Subtotals option, which would be a valuable addition to our features, so I'll take note of this. 

 

Although some features may not be currently available with the new invoice layout, we are actively working on making them accessible and possible. Our priority is to ensure that you have the best experience possible with the current version of QuickBooks that you're using.

 

I also encourage you to leave feedback from within the product. 

 

Here are the steps:

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon and select Feedback.
  2. Provide your product suggestion.
  3. Click on Next to submit feedback.

 

You can check out this article for more information about providing feedback to make the program better: How do I submit feedback?

 

If you require the Subtotals option, you may want to switch back to the old layout for the time being. Please take note that if you initially had the old layout and then upgraded to the new layout, you'll no longer have the option to switch back to the old layout.

 

Refer to this article to see what’s new with estimates and invoices in QuickBooks Online. It'll tell you more about the features that we currently have and are not yet available. 

 

Once you receive customer payments, here's how you record invoice payments in QuickBooks Online.

 

Let me know if you need further information about subtotal lines in your invoices on QBO. I'm always glad to help in any way I can. Have a great rest of the day!

So, then the new invoicing experience is a huge step backward in functionality, when compared to the old one, which itself is a huge step backwards from the QuickBooks Desktop functionality - in turn most of which is 20 years old (and works great)!

 

One wonders how far Intuit will go to make QuickBooks Online truly terrible. They've already done a lot and the new and terrible just keeps coming!

The issue is not "solved" when you tell the client that their concern is just flat-out being removed and then give them a bunch of nonsense they didn't ask for.

You DIDN'T solve anything on this question!  Stop using "SOLVED" when it ISN'T solved!

Quit advising to "send feedback". I do it everyday and NOTHING is ever done to resolve the issues!

Then you've failed.

 

RE: The new invoice layout on QuickBooks Online (QBO) doesn't have the Subtotals option, which would be a valuable addition to our features.

 

Yes, everyone knows that! There's no point in pointing out the obvious. QuickBooks Desktop has had subtotals (and subtotals of subtotals, and subtotals of subtotals of subtotals, and so on and so forth) for 30 years.  Of course it has, because customers need them. Intuit knew that 30 years ago. How could you possibly remove them? Some doofus really needs to be fired.

 

I hope all my completely unnecessary bold text makes my message cleared to you.
