Join nowI need to know when adding specific line item to an invoice, if it's possible to make it so that a secondary line item is added automatically, but only for certain products/services?
Solved! Go to Solution.
I'll take care of your query about automatic line item creation in QuickBooks Online (QBO), @aapowers.
The closest thing I can think of that agrees with your statement is a bundle. Bundles in QBO are a combination of products and services that you sell as a whole. Moreover, you have the option to show the components of a bundle as line items on sales transactions, such as an invoice.
Here's how to create a bundle:
Refer to these screenshots for the sample invoice with a bundle.

Can this be done on Quickbooks desktop?
Hi there, @gamblefuel.
I've got your back! I'm here to help you how to create bundles in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT). It's easy and can be done with ease.
Bundles are called "Groups" in QBDT. We use this type of item to put multiple items together. You also have the option to show the components as line items on transactions.
Here's how:
Additionally, the following article provides more information about the different item types you can create in QBDT. It also includes answers to frequently asked questions about this topic. Head to this link: Add, Edit, and Delete Items.
I'd appreciate it if you could update me on how it goes and if you have further questions. It's my pleasure to help you some more. Have a great day!
Why does bundles not show up on invoices but they do show up on statements? I am having to edit each statement to make sure the bundle does not show up each time I sent out a statement.
Hello there, @bl202277.
Let's make sure to untick the option to display bundle components when printing and emailing your invoices in QuickBooks Online (QBO). This way, you won't be able to see the list of items in a bundle in your statements.
To disable this option, here's how:

I think you misunderstood. I do not want them to show up on either invoices or statements. I have unchecked the "Display bundle components when printing or sending transactions" box and they do not show on invoices, but they do still show up on statements.
Thank you for the additional information, bl202277.
When you untick the "Display bundle components when printing or sending transactions," you'll no longer be able to see the list of bundle items in your statements and when printing your invoices.
In the case that you still see the list of items after unticking the option, I recommend using a private browser. You can use these keyboard shortcuts:
If the issue persists, let's try deleting the browser cache and Intuit-specific cookies. This allows you to refresh the website preferences, which may be causing problems when using QuickBooks.
I'll be adding this article to help you manage your statements: Download and save sales forms and statements.
Please update me on how it goes and if you have further questions. I'm here to assist you.
