Why do the line items in my bill show up as separate transaction in my register?

I don't know why each line item included in my bill shows up as a separate row in my register. I just want one row in my register to sum up the total of the entire transaction. Then when I double click the transaction, that's when I can see the line item breakdown in the invoice. As you can see below, my invoice has multiple line items.

When I save my invoice, for whatever reason, each line item is saved as a separate row in my register.

I even checked the setting to collapse transactions thinking that would help and it did nothing. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated!

Hi there, @typicole. I'm here to help you with your line items in the transaction register.

May I know what QuickBooks Desktop version you're using? This way, I can provide you with a resolution that fits your situation.

In the meantime, you have to ensure that the box for 1-line is unchecked. When the option is checked, there will be only one line when you open your register.

Here's a screenshots for visual reference:

This is what it looks like when 1 line is checked.

And here's what it looks like if 1 line is unchecked.

@typicole   Ignore the answer by @GebelAlainaM , which has nothing to do with your question.
