Purchase Order Data

I appreciate you for adding more details to your post, @abcembroidery.

When opening a purchase order in QuickBooks Online (QBO), the amount should appear in the PO after you input the pricing in the rate column. With this, let's ensure to save the details of the PO you've made in your account.

However, if the total amount still doesn't show the on your end, let's check if it's a browser-related issue. We can try logging in to your QBO account using a private browser as it ignores websites from using cookies and doesn’t record any historical data. You can use these shortcut keys on your keyboard to access incognito mode:

• Safari: Control + Option + P
• Google Chrome: Press Ctrl + Shift + N
• Firefox or Internet Explorer: Ctrl + Shift + P

If this works, it means that you need to clear the browser's cache so the system can start fresh. If you get the same result, I recommend switching to a different supported browser.

Furthermore, here's an article you can browse just in case you need assistance creating single and importing multiple sales receipts in QuickBooks Online: Create sales receipts in QuickBooks Online. 

 You can let me know once it works. Feel free to post here again if you have any additional questions related to the program. I've got you covered, and I'll get back to you. Take care.

I have used both Safari and Chrome on a Mac, and tried incognito/private browsing in each, all to no avail. The PO page will allow me to update the QTY, and the AMOUNT columns, but the RATE column will not keep my input. This makes updating a PO for the QTY x RATE = AMOUNT very cumbersome.
