I have a client who gets monthly invoices, and she has been using the "schedule payment" option for probably at least a year now. I sent a new invoice this month, and she reports that she no longer has the option to "schedule payment." Is this a setting I somehow changed? Why would this have disappeared for her? How can I get this option back?
Hi haen6404. Thank you for providing the details about the issue you're facing. Certain details in your QuickBooks Online (QBO) invoice are causing the schedule payment option to disappear for your client.
I'll help you identify and resolve the issue to ensure this feature is available for your client's monthly invoices.
The Payment Date box for scheduling payments disappears if the payment terms are set to Due on receipt or if the total invoice amount exceeds $50,000. To restore this option, consider adjusting the payment terms and ensuring the total amount is under $50,000.
Here’s how you can adjust the invoice terms in QuickBooks Online (QBO):
Once you’ve made the changes, your customer can schedule their payment, using the same Review and Pay button on the invoice you originally sent via email. I've added a screenshot of the schedule payment option after updating the invoice terms.
I'm also including articles on how to categorize and match transactions in QBO for future reference:
