Past Due on invoice that are one day old setting n account is 30 days.

Catherine1955 · ‎March 25, 2020

I do not and cannot use Quick books on line, I have set up every customer for 30 days in their account /Payment Settings /Payment Terms /30 days and the day after I send the invoice if I send it again it says Past Due on the invoice. That is what am trying to change with no luck.

Thanks for visiting the Community, @Catherine1955. I'm here to help you add a payment term that is due within 30 days from the invoice date. Here's how to do it:

Select Customer & Vendor Profile Lists in the Lists menu.
Select Terms List.
Click the Terms drop-down, then choose New.
Provide a name for this term, then choose Standard.
Click OK.

Thanks for keeping in touch with us here in the Community, @Catherine1955.

I appreciate you for doing the steps suggested by my colleague @katherinejoyceO.

Since you're still having this issue, you can attempt deleting the invoice and recreate it.

Here's how to delete an invoice:

Go to the Customers menu.
Select Customer Center.
Choose the invoice created with 30 days term.
Open the invoice then click the Delete (X) icon on the upper part of the invoice.
Click OK.

Then apply the 30 days term again.

When you're ready to enter payments for your invoice, you can check this article for your guide: Record an Invoice Payment.

This only creates the term it does not apply it to all the invoices created. How do you set the invoice to automatically populate net30 when you create the invoice? I have 300 invoices I am sending out and editing the due date on each one is going to be time consuming.

Hello debatablethatiwillstayacustomer,

Thank you for reaching out to the QuickBooks Community. With QuickBooks Desktop, you would need to choose the preferred terms for each customer instead of changing them on the invoice template.

For more information about setting up payment terms, this article is very resourceful. If you need clarification, let me know. My team and I are here to help.
