In QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE), you can manually mark the invoices as paid. Just make sure you click Save instead of Save as draft.
Here's how to do it:
- In QBSE, go to the Invoices menu at the left pane.
- Locate the specific invoice, then tick the drop-down option under the Action column.
- Pick Mark as paid.
Additionally, you also the option to send the invoices to your customers instead of manually downloading them as PDF. The system will automatically create an attachment for you. For further guidance, consider checking out this article: What's new with QuickBooks Self-Employed Invoicing?
Just in case, I'll add this article for future reference: Create an invoice in QuickBooks Self-Employed.
