THE NEW TEMPLATE WHILE MAKING INVOICES IS REALLY BAD. I NEED HELP MODIFYING. I WANT TO HIDE "CLASS (HIDDEN)" AND I NEED THE COLLUMNS TO BE ADJUSTABLE. HELP!

Let me ensure you can deliver your insights directly to our product engineers so they can include your suggestions in future product updates, userkatie3.

 

With QuickBooks Online, managing classes, locations, and tags on invoices are default settings once enabled from your company's setup. However, if you want to hide or remove Classes on your sales forms, you'll need to turn off the class feature from your account's configuration. To help you do this:

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon and select Accounts and Settings.
  2. From the Advanced tab, click on the Categories section. Then, turn off the Track classes option.
  3. Once done, select Save. Then, Done.

 

On the other hand, the ability to adjust columns on your invoices isn't available in the program's new rollout updates. For now, you can submit your product ideas from your online account. To do that:

 

  1. Go to Settings and select Feedback.
  2. Enter your suggestions and click Next to submit them.

 

Moreover, you can track and enter customer-paid invoices and run specific reports to help review your business finances and other accounting data.

 

I'll always be around on this thread if there's anything else you need further assistance with when managing sales transactions in your file. Keep safe and have a great weekend ahead!

It's killing me. The new Layout is terible. I called and told them that I can not create multiple invoices against an estimate and they couldn't figure it out either. 

 

QB team, JUST TURN ON THE OLD VERSION BACK.

Hello, Alpha X. 

 

I can see the challenges you're facing while creating multiple invoices from your estimate, also known as progress invoicing. Let me provide you with some information regarding this. 

 

In QuickBooks Online (QBO), the functionality of creating multiple invoices against an estimate is still available since it's excluded in the features that were unavailable in a new experience. Therefore, please check if you enable the Progress Invoicing feature in your settings. 

 

Here's how: 

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon located in the upper right corner. 
  2. Under the Your Company column, choose Account and Settings.
  3. Tap the Sales menu on the left side of your screen. 
  4. Find the Progress Invoicing section and press the Pencil icon to edit.
  5. Turn on the Create multiple partial invoices from a single estimate switch. 
  6. Press Save. Then click Done.

 

Afterward, proceed to check the total amount within the invoices created. If it's not yet equal to the estimate's amount, you can still make invoices for that specific estimate. If it is, creating another invoice transaction will be unavailable since its amount is already the same as your estimate.  

 

On the other hand, if creating progress invoicing is unavailable to you, I suggest contacting our online support team since they have the right tools to check and identify why this is happening on your end. 

 

Here's how to contact our support:

 

  1. In your QBO account, select Help (?)
  2. Choose the Search tab.
  3. At the bottom of your screen, click Contact Us.  
  4. Type your concern. Then click Continue
  5. You may choose CallbackAppointment, or Chat, as your way to connect with us. 
  6. Kindly fill out the provided fields, such as your First nameLast nameEmail address, and Phone number. 
  7. Depending on what you choose as your way to connect with us, click CallbackSchedule an appointment, or Chat.

or at least give the user to choose if they want to utilize the old verse new interface. 

 

My product names are longer than the tiny space provided in the new template. This new version makes my business harder to run.

It's clear that you value the ability to use the old interface feature in QuickBooks Online (QBO), and I can see how this would be beneficial for business owners like yourself.

We encourage you to share your suggestions and feedback with our product developers, and here's how you can do that:
