Thanks for bringing this to us, @Metro1477.
I appreciate you for sharing your experience with us. Let me bring clarifications about invoice terms in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT).
I tried to replicate this on my end and couldn't obtain the same outcome. Let's run the Verify Data Utility tool to see if it's a data issue. It'll help resolve unusual behavior like this.
Below are the steps on how to do it:
- Click File.
- Click Utilities.
- Click Verify Data.
- When prompted with an error, click Rebuild Now.
Or you can follow these steps to rebuild your data:
- Click File.
- Click Utilities.
- Click Rebuild Data.
Once done, create an invoice again and see how it works.
