Hello there, @BossLadyVik. Removing or rearranging the payment tabs, like E-check, from your sales receipt screen isn't possible.
While you can customize the receipt templates that customers see, the data entry screen itself is hard-coded into the QuickBooks Desktop interface. This means the layout remains fixed regardless of which services you actually use. Because these specific payment tabs are tied to the software's internal processing modules, they cannot be removed, rearranged, or replaced with a dedicated Square button to simplify your view.
As a workaround, you can use Square as the default payment method for your most frequent customers to minimize the need for manual clicks.
- Go to the Customer Center and right-click on a customer's name.
- Select Edit Customer: Job.
- Navigate to the Payment Settings tab.
- Set the Payment Method to Square. If you haven’t added Square to your list yet, you can do so under Lists, then Customer & Vendor Profile Lists.
While this won’t hide the E-check tab, it ensures that Square is automatically selected in the dropdown whenever you create a new sales receipt for that customer, saving you an extra step.
We are here to help if you have any more questions about this or other QuickBooks tasks.
