How to I retrieve an invoice that was deleted because it was not saved before the site automatically signed out?

Hello there, @cynthia-scholz

 

Welcome to the Community. It's sad to know that the program automatically signed you out before saving the invoice. Unsaved invoice can't be retrieved, however, we can try checking the Audit Log activities involving that specific invoice. Here's how:

 

  1. From the Gear icon, pick Audit Log.
  2. Click the arrow down next to Filter.
  3. Pick a User.
  4. Set the Date.
  5. Move the radio button to Show only these events, then mark the Transactions box.
  6. Hit Apply.

 

If you're unable to find the invoice, I recommend adding it again and make sure to click the Save button. Check out this video tutorial for reference: How to create a customer invoice

 

You can also adjust the settings so you can stay logged in longer in QuickBooks Online. Here's an article for your future reference: Change the timeout duration in QuickBooks Online.

 

Feel free to reach out to me if you need anything else. I’ll be around to help.
