How come some customer statements are shown as "unavailable"?

What does it mean when a customer statement is "unavailable"? How can I make it available?

 

I see open and overdue invoices for the "unavailable" customers and their balances are not $0.00 either.Screen Shot 2021-02-16 at 10.25.17 PM.png

I'll help you fix this, Prosperbk.

 

When customers have no outstanding balances or overdue invoices, the transactions will show up in the Statements unavailable.

 

Here's a sample screenshot for reference:

Since this is not the case from your end, we can do some troubleshooting steps to get those customer transactions transferred over to the Statements Available section.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Open a private browser or incognito mode, and log in to your QuickBooks Online account. Private browser doesn't store cache.
  2. Try to open a new tab. If it works, go back to your regular browser and clear the cache.
  3. You can also use other supported browsers as an alternate solution.

Please reply to this post letting me know how it goes. I want to make sure this is resolved for you. Thanks!

Hello,

 

It is not a browser issue / solved with going incognito. It looks like some weird "bill with parent company" vs. "bill this company" selection. But I do not understand why "bill with parent company" will not have the statements show as available. The balance and invoice is still overdue regardless who is to be billed.

Incognito / browser did not solve this.

 

It looks like an issue with selecting "bill with parent company" vs "bill this customer." I do not understand why that matters as either choice, the invoice is still outstanding and overdue. So how come it seems to work with "bill this customer" but not "bill with parent company"?

I am having a similar issue, when a client has overdue payments, those are the ones who need the statement the most, that is not a good reason to have statement unavailable.  This was easy to do on quickbooks desktop.  Please correct the issue to make making statements for customers with overdue invoices.

found an easy solution, on the customer page, where it shows "all transactions" change that option to invoices only.  Then press the print icon and print to a PDF.  That will show past payments and overdue payments and the balance owed

well it cut off that I meant to say the balance owed in total is not shown, which is kind of irritating, but that can be easily calculated if the customer does not have too many things overdue.
