Question

How do I apply multiple payment methods to "receive Payment"? ie, partial payment in cash, partial on credit card, sometime on two cards, etc?

Hi @IamjuViel

I'd like to create a sales receipt instead of an invoice for a customer who paid for goods and services which totalled $140. $100 was paid in cash. $40 by CC. Would it be a similar concept?

The reason I'm considering sales receipt is that the customer paid at time of service and no invoice was issued.

I'd be grateful for a step by step breakdown when you get a moment.

Many thanks!

This has still not been fixed. I have a customer who would like to pay for my services with 2 different cards. I have tried to figure out how to do this and have even been on the phone with customer service for an hour. NO ONE CAN FIGURE IT OUT. Why is this such a hard demand? Do I have to create 2 invoices now? I am super frustrated with quickbooks for not making this a no brainer.

Hello there, allisenanne.

You don't have to create multiple invoices just to associate multiple payment methods. Instead, you can create partial payments of the invoice and use the correct payment methods. Here's how to do it:

Open the invoice you want to pay and click the Receive payment button.
In the Receive Payment window, enter the Payment date, the Reference no., and the Deposit to account.
Select the Payment method you want to use.
Mark the invoice you want to pay under the Outstanding Transactions section.
Enter the amount the customer paid using the payment method in the PAYMENT field.
Make sure it matches the Amount received field.
Click Save and new. You'll still be in the Receive Payment window.
Select the Customer and repeat steps 2-7.
Make sure you select the correct Payment method.

Here are some links that you can use for reference:

It is more than 3 years since this query was raised and still QB have done nothing.

Furthermore the responses you get from the moderators are robotic completely ignoring the original question.

In pure plain simple english it is very clear that 'Sales receipts' cannot accept 2 different methods of payments. Therefore the only workable solution is to create an 'Invoice' and then post post after the invoice has been created.

As others have indicated this is another example of a no-brainer function that should be implemented.

I know, I sound very frustrated - because I am! - the potential for QBO is there but there are ZERO technicians working on anything to continously improve this program. The amount of issues I've raised/reported/provided feedback and nada, zero, nothing.

It's clear, accept the product as it is or move on to others like Odoo, Sage etc

Consider having a 3rd party merchant service with such feature to integrate with QB Online and QB Desktop.

Hmm. Adding cost to the accounting software stack in order to resolve a basic functionality issue does not seem an appropriate solution. Any other ideas?

I already spend a lot of money on this forced-down-my-throat software and am not looking to have yet another thing to learn how to record in QB.
