Is there an autosave feature yet?!

I see all the other discussions about a save as you go feature that obviously isn't in QBO. I just did an entire estimate and had to step away for a minute and QB signed me out and now my whole invoice is gone. I don't understand how this isn't a standard feature in 2025. The budget, no frills invoice program that I used to use had this feature.

 

Seriously, ADD AUTOSAVE to save as you go. Yes, I know I can hit the save button. Yes, I know I can change the settings to not log me out for several hours. That doesn't solve the issue. People have been asking about this feature for years. This company is worth how much? $170 BILLION? And still can no save-as-you-type? PAY SOMEONE TO ADD IT FFS

Is there an autosave feature yet?!

Your presence in the Community is highly appreciated, @renewPaint. I have some valuable information regarding handling your invoices with the autosave feature in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

 

While it's possible that you can save invoices and adjust settings to keep them in your account, the option to autosave an invoice after drafting is currently unavailable.

 

To address this, I recommend that you submit a feature request directly to our Product Developers. They greatly value your input and encourage you to share your ideas.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. On the upper right corner, click the Gear icon.
  2. Under Profile, choose Feedback.
  3. Type in your product suggestions.
  4. Once done, select Next to submit.

 

In the meantime, to assist you with processing payments after creating an invoice, please explore this article: Receive and process payments in QuickBooks Online with QuickBooks Payments.

 

For improved performance and better navigation of reports for your business, you can check out this article: Customize reports in QuickBooks Online.

 

You're always welcome here if you have other queries in mind, @renewPaint. We're here to help ensure you get the most out of your QBO experience.
