Hi, all.
I'm not too sure if this is the right place, but I need help with our receipt forms.
When we want to print a receipt, the preview window would display the receipt with all details expect for the payment method, which would be blank. Double checking the payment screen itself the payment method would show that it is populated with the method chosen (ie. credit card).
I've looked everywhere and couldn't find any solution to this. QB chat support team is no help at all, just saying "the engineering team is currently working on it" every time I follow-up with them.
I'm not sure if this is an ongoing issue or maybe there's just a simple solution, but we're at our wits' end trying to figure this out. I do hope someone from here can help up sort this out.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
Hi there, HB-Glenn.
I've got the steps you need to know about printing payment methods on Sales receipts in QuickBooks Online (QBO).
You have the option to create a custom form style to show the payment method on your sales receipt in QuickBooks. Here's how:
Once done, you'll now be able to see the payment method for printing your sales receipt.

Hi LeizylM,
Thanks for responding. I tried the steps and saw that the payment method box is already ticked to I did not touch that. However, checking the preview of the sales receipt, it still shows that the payment method field is still blank.
if you have anything else we can try, please let me know. Thanks in advance.
Hi HB-Glenn,
Thank you for trying the steps my colleague has shared to resolve the blank payment method on your sales receipt form.
I'll guide you with some browser troubleshooting steps to check if this has something to do with your cached data. However, you can skip this process if you've already performed it with our Chat Support team, and contact them again to make a follow-up instead.
We can start by signing in to QBO using a private browser. This step prevents the browser from re-using the temporary internet files in the cache that may have been misconfigured, corrupted, or outdated.
Shortcut keys to open a private browser:
If you can see the payment method while browsing privately, you can open your regular browser and clear the cache. You can use a different browser if you get the same result.
Let me know if you need more assistance showing the payment method on your sales receipt. I'm just right here to continue helping you.
Hey JessT,
Thanks for following up. I tried loading up QB online in a private browser, but the issue still persists. I even tried using another browser + incognito mode but the results are the same.
If you do have anything else to try, please let me know.
Thank you,
I appreciate you for performing all the troubleshooting steps to fix this, HB-Glenn.

I understand that you've contacted our support team, but I would still recommend reaching out to them again. They have full access to your account and can review why the Payment method section is missing.

Hi CharleneMaeF,
Thank you for responding. I do have an open case with the chat team and I follow-up with them every week. The thing is so far the only thing they tell me is that the issue has been escalated to your engineering team and they're looking into it.
It's the same thing for about 2 months now, so I'm not expecting any help from them anymore. This is also the reason I gave the forums a try.
Hope you can still help me with this, though.
Good afternoon, @HB-Glenn.
Thanks for reaching back out.
Since you've already contacted support before and are checking up with them weekly, at this time, that would still be the best route. With that being said, I do recommend you keep in touch with them every week like you have been doing.
Our engineering team works hard to ensure that every customer is able to use the product and have the features working properly.
Keep us updated on how the chat goes over the next week or two. My priority is that this gets taken care of right away. Have a wonderful day and weekend ahead!
This has been an ongoing issue for YEARS. Doing a search through the forums can prove this. I've been trying as well to get this resolved. My workaround has been to enter the payment details into the memo box so that the customer is still getting full information. But this is long standing issue. Especially on the Payment receipt (not the sales receipt) which is a form completely generated by QBO with no customizable options to the end user and this field just doesn't work.
I would like to add, I went on a search for this same issue, also I can not locate this answer but it was a Intuit representative " state that it was the ENG team that decide to have these fields removed" in 2022 for our business our sales receipts was populating this info on the hard copies. How ever sometime in or around July to October the info became missing. Upon further research it was brought to my attention that this info is required by law for the customer with out this info being printed. as someone posted on this feed, the business has to manually include this info. If it is not given out to customer the customer can more than likely sue the business. So far this has not happened to our business. If the production team/eng was the department that implanted this, would you please reverse the data
I understand the importance of showing the payment method when printing sales receipts since it is required by law and for the safety of your business. Rest assured, the QuickBooks Team will help you resolve this matter.
I recommend following the steps provided by my colleague @LeizylM above by ensuring the Payment method is enabled in the sales form styles. If the problem persists, I recommend doing some browser troubleshooting steps to ensure your browser has less cached data provided by my colleague @JessT.
If the payment method is still not showing after going through everything, I recommend contacting our QuickBooks support team.
Here's how:

Please don't hesitate to reply to this post if you have further concerns about payment methods not showing in receipts. I'll always be around to help.
I checked this info before I posted. As HB posted above, the info is populated when viewing the settings both in a browser and in Incognito. The issue is the Payment Method does not print when printing a sales receipt or invoice. I am not a programmer when it comes to creating data for a system like Quick Books but I think the issues lies within the data of Quick Books On Line. If I am not mistaken I think a customer can sue a business for not providing this info on a sales receipt
It is quite annoying and surprised QB has not fixed this issue. QB - Can you please look into this?

I am also having this problem. Simply, with the "payment method" check box ticked the payment method(cash, credit, or debit) doesn't show on the sales receipt.
This is an ongoing problem. I have also contacted the support team to no avail.
Is anyone else having this issue. The primary payment method is no longer populating. When I type, it will show up but will not save. I've tried everything to get it back and have run out of options. I feel like QB might be a dying company as they no longer have any way to chat online and the AI assistant route is terrible. The # for SALES is front and centre but HELP? not so much.

Can this issue please be fixed as it not only has legal implications but also looks extremely unprofessional. Being able to remove the field would already be a huge help. Please note that this is about the payment receipt and not the sales receipt. These are two different kind of receipts and only one (payment) encounters this issue.
