Hi there, jmorris.
You can see the invoice payment method through the payment transaction created. I'll show you how.
If you want to add the payment method to your invoice, you can manually input it under the Description column.
For more tips about handling your invoices and payment transactions, you can open this article: Record invoice payments in QuickBooks Online.
You can also get more tips about handling your sales and other customer entries through this link: Topics about your company's income and customers.
If you have any other follow-up questions about an invoice payment method, let me know by adding a comment below. I'm more than happy to help. Keep safe!
I appreciate the reply.
I know how to view the payment method within QB however I need a way to auto-generate it on the invoice not manually, thats too time consuming.
I wonder why this is an option for a sales receipt but not for other documents. Speaking of, even though the option is checked for sales receipts, it is not actually showing up in them.
Also "custom fields" when creating one does not show any options to edit, only the name field. I thought I might be able to make a custom field to add the payment method but that feature doesnt seem to be working at all.
Thanks for the speedy reply, @jmorris.
I appreciate the clarification about the payment method. I've here other ways to auto-generate the payment mode on your customer transactions.
The first option is to add a preferred payment method for your customer. This way, the selected mode will auto-generate in the field. Let me guide you on how.
The second option is to create recurring templates for your chosen transaction.
Here's the guide:

In regards to the custom fields that aren't showing up, I'd recommend contacting our technical support. They can investigate your account in a safe place and help you from there as well.

Additionally, you can run a Transaction List by Customer report. Then customize it to show the payment method, status, due date, and others. For more details about customizing, visit this article: Run reports in QuickBooks.

I'd be pleased to help if you have other problems with your account. Keep safe during this pandemic.
I have spent a couple of hours now with 2 different Intuit/QB's Support people without resolving this issue. They both agreed that although I was designating the payment type it failed to show up in that field on the receipt. I was put on hold multiple times for them to go to their resources only to be told that they would present the issue to the next level. Later I received an email from the last CS person stating this wasn't going to be an option.
This is my response to that:
It is pure nonsense to have a line item (in bold, I might add) on the receipt for Payment Method and not have that information populate on the receipt. This is nothing but pure laziness. I can see from comments here that Intuit has been made aware of this for years and has done nothing about it. The right thing to do is to remove that from the receipt or populate it with the information provided when the end user accepts payment.
Shame on you for not caring about how unprofessional this looks. Shame on you for making us look like donkeys because it appears we didn't put the information in that space. You need to get your programmers more interested in content than how pretty they think they can make things. Show you care and fix this issue.
