Anyone else have "issues" with Quickbooks App not allowing you to enter invoices - getting this message: That didn't work Call succeed but payload is empty ???

Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention, @S16641. Let me help you retrieve your data as soon as possible so you can get back to your business.

For most general issues with QBO app, clearing the app's cache can help resolve them. By clearing the cache, you can remove historical data and access QuickBooks with a clean slate.

To start, let's refresh your data to see the latest available information in your QBO app to resolve this unexpected behavior.

Here's how:

iOS

1. Go to Settings, then tap General.
2. Click iPhone Storage, then tap the QuickBooks Online app.
3. Select Offload App.

This will free up the storage without deleting your app's documents and data.

Android

1. Go to Menu ☰, then tap More Options ⋮.
2. Select Settings, then Refresh Data.
3. Click YES to confirm.

If the issue persists, you can uninstall and reinstall the Online mobile application. Otherwise, if the problem continues, you can access QuickBooks Online using other supported browsers.

Additionally, you can visit this article to learn how to personalize and add specific information to your sales forms, enabling you to create professional-looking invoices, estimates, and sales receipts in QBO: Customize invoices, estimates, and sales receipts in QuickBooks Online.

Feel free to come back to the Community if you have any other concerns about invoicing or the mobile app, S16641. I'll be right here to ensure you're well taken care of.

I have the same problem. I have contacted support and they said it is a bug they are working on and to wait for next update. This is not a solution when you are unable to make an invoice. 

I’m having the same problem on my iPad Air. When I attempt to create an invoice from the Customers tab, and then tap (+) for a new invoice, I get the same pop up error.

A workaround that is working for me is to use the Invoices tab to generate the invoice. Going this route I have sent several invoices today with no issue. I assume QBO will fix the main issue soon. Seems to not be a caching issue since generating via the Invoices tab is successful.

Same issue on Apple iPad you guys need to stop updating this app it is more than annoying everyone I go to bill a customer there is a new big to replace old ones please get this problem fixed it is not allowing me to bill so I can pay for your program!

Upon checking our system, I've found an ongoing investigation about an error creating invoices or estimates (INV-111929). Please know that our product engineers are working diligently to provide a permanent fix so you can get back to business.

1. Log in to your QuickBooks Online (QBO) account.
2. Click the Help button at the top right corner.

4. Enter a brief discussion of your concern, then click Continue.

Yes we are having the same issue. We cannot enter/edit/ email invoices. This started happening yesterday. Please advise. thanks!

I appreciate you joining the thread, @Kjorchards. I understand how frustrating it can be when you're unable to manage your invoices smoothly, especially if it's crucial for your operations.

If you're using an iOS device, I recommend reaching out to our support team for help. There's an ongoing investigation (INV-111929) related to this issue, and contacting support will ensure you receive updates on the progress.

Here's how:

1. Log in to your QuickBooks Online (QBO) account.
2. Navigate to the Help menu.
3. Open the Search tab and select Contact Us.
4. Enter a short explanation of your concern, then click Continue.
5. Choose a way to connect with us.

As a workaround, use an Android device or login to QBO through a mobile or web browser to accomplish your invoice tasks. Alternatively, create the invoice from the app dashboard or through the + icon from the Customer profile.

However, if you're encountering the same problem on an Android device, you can perform some troubleshooting steps. The accumulation of data can contribute to this issue within the application.

Follow these steps:

1. Open Settings.
2. Choose Apps (varies by device).
3. Select QuickBooks app from the list, then Storage.
4. Tap Clear Data.

If the issue persists, uninstall and reinstall the app. This will remove any cached or corrupted files, giving you a fresh start without potential data issues.
