I created an invoice in Quickbooks and my client paid me using a check. I did mark the invoice as paid, but will it show up as a sale/income in my QB account? I could not find a way to apply the check number and amount to the invoice.

I'm here to provide you with the information, Peggyglaub.

The sales transactions added in the Invoices tab will not show up as a sale/income account. That feature lets you record invoices only. 

You'll want to enter the payment in the Transactions tab. This way, it will be added to the specific sale account. Here's how:

1. Go to the Transactions tab.
2. Click Add transaction.
3. Enter a description, add the amount, then select the category.
4. Click Save.

Thanks so much for the fast response! It was the perfect solution to my question. I was able to follow the instructions and put it through as a transfer and was able to make it work. I truly appreciated the assistance!
