Progress invoicing - need line item details

Hi there, ProscapesTN0256.

I understand how important it is to see the breakdown of progress invoicing for each line item, and I'm here to help you with that.

The option to see detailed progress invoicing for each item directly in the invoice itself is not available in QuickBooks Online.

However, you can use the Estimates & Progress Invoicing Summary by Customer report to get a clear overview of your total estimate, invoiced amount, remaining balance, and track progress for current and previous invoices.

Here's how:

1. Navigate to Report.
2. Select Standard reports.
3. In the search box above, type and click Estimates & Progress Invoicing Summary by Customer.

While it doesn’t break down what’s been billed per line item like QuickBooks Desktop, you can manually open each linked invoice from the estimate to track billing per line as a workaround.

This does not solve our issue. In my search of the message boards, it seems a lot of users would like this functionality and have been asking for it for years. Why are you not adding this?? QuickBooks Desktop was a thousand times better. I had been using desktop for 25 years! We've been very disappointed with QB online. Such a shame to be forced to switch over...
