Invoices and Payments

Hello, @Phil51. I'm here to help you see the payment linked to the invoice in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT).

Before we begin, may I know what specific report you've opened when viewing the invoice? That information is a great help so I can provide a timely solution.

It's possible that the payment is located on the Undeposited Funds account that's why you can't see it on your check register. To check if this is the case let's start by reviewing your preferences. Follow along below to get this done right away:

1. In your QBDT company go to the Edit menu and select Preferences.
2. Select the Payments section and click Company Preferences.
3. From there, check if the Use Undeposited Funds as a default deposit to account box is ticked.

If yes, let's now go to the Chart of Accounts page and open the Undeposited Funds register to see the payment. Here's how:

1. Select the Company tab and click Chart of Accounts.
2. Then, look for the Undeposited Funds account and double-click to open it.
3. Next, find the specific payment.
4. In case you want to put the payment to the correct account, you simply need to create a bank deposit. 

If you're still not seeing the payment, I recommend running the Rebuild Data tool. This process will help resolve most data integrity issues within your company file.

Let me know how the steps go and feel free to post again here. I'd also appreciate it if you can add updates about this or any additional details regarding your payment concern. I'm just around the corner to lend a hand. Have a good one. 

Thank you for your help Divina.  I am using Quickbooks Pro 2020 on a laptop.

The deposit I am looking for is not in Undeposited Funds, and yes that is the default location under preferences.

The report i am using is just a memorized report that created filtering out invoices for a specific job.

Thanks for checking back with us, @Phil51. 

It sounds like you may have an issue with your memorized report. Over a period of time in QuickBooks Desktop, we can see issues arise with memorized reports (also known as broken reports). Such as invoices and payments showing incorrectly. 

With that said, I recommend creating a new report and customizing it to fit your needs. This way, you can get a better scope of the details and see if you are in need of a new memorized report. I think a Transaction Detail report will suit your needs perfectly for the information you're looking for. 

Here's how you can create a Transaction Detail report and memorize it: 

1. Go to the Reports menu at the top.
2. Select Custom Reports, then click Transaction Detail.
3. In the Modify Report window, select the Display tab.
4. Go to the Columns section, type in and choose Date, Name, Account, and Amount in the search field.
5. Set the other necessary filters.
6. Click the Filters tab.
7. In the Search field, type in Account and select Admission Taxes.
8. Hit OK.
9. Tap on Memorize at the top of the report if you wish to save the customizations for later.

That should do it. Let me know how the new report goes. I look forward to chatting with you soon. Take care!
