Join nowI have a single client, for which I consult on multiple projects. Time entries need to be invoiced by project, so I have multiple invoices, each for a separate project. These projects may actually be for my client's customer's and passed on the them.
The problem is that invoices show the charges on the current invoices (New Charges) as well as charges from other open invoices for the same client (Other Invoices from this date). The total shown is for the both the charges on this invoice and other outstanding invoices. This is very confusing to my client and doesn't allow them to use my invoice as an item when charging their customer.
How do I have an invoice ONLY reflect the charges on the invoice itself, and not include charges from other open invoices?

Does this work with Quickbooks Online or I have to Upgrade? I am currently having this issue and I don't see this option in my settings
