I have 8 projects for the same customer. They would like them all put on a single invoice. Is this possible?

Welcome and thank you for posting here on the Community page, @luke-chalkboxstu.

The Projects feature in the program is intended for only one customer that has multiple services. Currently, there isn't a way to create one invoice for multiple projects. Right now, you have the option to import your invoice template style.

If you already turned on the project feature and you want to create your first project, you can perform the steps below.

Here's how:

Go to Projects from the left menu.
Select New Project.
Give your project a memorable name.
Choose the customer you’re working for from the drop-down menu.
Click Save.

You can go through these helpful articles on how to set up and use the projects feature and how to import custom invoices.

This feature "Creating one invoice for one Client with multiple projects was working great last month (Nov. 2024). Now it seems to have disappeared. How do I get that back?

Creating an invoice for one client with multiple projects works smoothly in QuickBooks Online (QBO), WaterGuy. I’m excited to share insights to enhance your invoicing capabilities.

One reason you might not see your billable expense while creating an invoice is due to minor changes in the invoice interface. You now have the option to show suggested transactions automatically.

Here’s how you can enable this feature:

In the invoice interface, click on Manage.
Drag down the Suggestions dropdown.
Finally, put a checkmark on Automatically show suggested transactions.

If the billable transactions still don't appear in your invoices, please double-check that you marked those transactions as billable when you created them.

If they still don’t show up, consider trying a different supported browser. Sometimes, switching browsers can resolve display issues. If everything works out, clearing your browser's cache can provide a fresh start and help eliminate any lingering issues.

For further guidance, you can check out this article on how to track hourly labor costs by project in QBO.
