Issues when updating a Product / Service in QBO

I've been trying to update a product or service in QuickBooks Online, but when I add it to a sales receipt, it still shows the old details from a year ago. Even though the product or service screen shows the updated information, the sales receipt doesn't. Has anyone else had this issue? If so, how did you resolve it?

Issues when updating a Product / Service in QBO

Welcome to the Community, AaronChow.

 

Since your updated product/service isn't showing its new information when adding it to sales receipts, I'd recommend checking your browser. It's possible this could have something to do with temporary internet files. Browsing applications store these types of records, but sometimes they can cause issues with certain webpages. You can open a private window and check to see if pages load properly.

 

Here's how to access incognito mode in some of the most commonly used web browsers:

 

  • Google Chrome: Ctrl Shift N
  • Mozilla Firefox: Ctrl Shift P
  • Microsoft Edge: Ctrl Shift P
  • Safari: Command Option P

 

If your product or service's new details are displaying properly while browsing privately, it's safe to say this problem's being caused by your browser. It can be fixed by clearing cached data and Intuit-specific cookies.

 

In the event its information continues not displaying properly while browsing in incognito mode, you'll initially want to try switching to another browsing application.

 

Here's a list of supported browsers:

 

  • Google Chrome - version 78 or newer
  • Mozilla Firefox - version 76 or newer
  • Microsoft Edge - version 79 or newer
  • Opera - version 68 or newer
  • Samsung - version 10 or newer
  • Safari - version 12 or newer

 

You can also check a browser's compatibility with QuickBooks by utilizing our browser health checkup tool. QuickBooks supports the current and two previous versions of browsers. If you find that you're using an unsupported version, make sure to update it to its latest release. Steps for doing so can be found on the particular company's website.

 

If you meet the system requirements for QuickBooks, but are still encountering pages that aren't loading properly, I'd recommend using a different device and/or internet connection. If it continues happening on other devices and internet connections, you'll want to get in touch with our Customer Care team. They'll be able to pull up your account in a secure environment, conduct further research, and create an investigation ticket if necessary.

 

They can be reached while you're signed in.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Use the Help (?) icon.
  2. Click Contact Us.
  3. Enter a description of your situation in the What can we help you with? field, then hit Let's talk.
  4. Select Start messaging or Get a call.

 

Be sure to review their support hours so you'll know when agents are available.

 

I've also included a detailed resource about system requirements for QuickBooks which may come in handy moving forward: System requirements

 

Please don't hesitate to send a reply if there's any additional questions. Have a lovely Thursday!

I've tried your suggestions on multiple browsers (Chrome, Edge, Safari), all up-to-date, in both regular and incognito modes. I've also cleared the cache several times and tested across different desktops and laptops. Unfortunately, this issue has persisted for months, likely since early 2024.
