Why isn't there an option to write a check for multiple invoices from one vendor? Where the hell did it go? No I don't want to schedule an online payment or mark as paid

Why isn't there an option to write a check for multiple invoices from one vendor? Where the hell did it go? No I don't want to schedule an online payment or mark as paid

Hey there thecajunboot. I'm glad you reached out to the community. I can help you get your vendor's invoices paid with one check quickly and easily. Here's a quick guide on how to do so:

  1. Click the + New button
  2. Then, select Check under the Vendor column. 
  3. Next, from the Payee drop-down select the vendor you are writing the check for. 
  4. After you select the vendor, all the outstanding Bills for the vendor will appear on the right side of the screen. At this point, you may choose the select all option, or add them each individually to the check. 
  5. Now, just select save and close after you have verified the remaining fields on the check.

I was wondering the same question, but how do you schedule a payment on QB Online for more than one vendor bill?  I usually have more than one invoice to pay per vendor.  All I can see is, E have to schedule a payment one bill at a time to the same vendor.  Hope that makes sense.

Thanks for joining us today, @Cherokee99.

 

I have an idea about scheduling a payment for more than one vendor bill. You can create multiple recurring templates for that vendor to do it. Let me show you how.

 

  1. Go to Gear at the top.
  2. Select Recurring transactions under Lists.
  3. Click New. Choose a Transaction Type from the drop-down. Then, enter the bill information. 
  4. Hit Save template. Do the same steps for the other vendor bill.

After creating mutiple recurring, their interval schedules will be posted in the Recurring Transactions page. Check out this guide for more information: Create recurring transactions in QuickBooks Online.

Thank you for your response, but  I am paying 10 invoices from one vendor.  I wanted to write one check thru QB Online.  Right now I have to pay one invoice at a time, utilizing the "schedule payment" option.

Thanks for getting back here, @Cherokee99.

 

In QuickBooks Online (QBO), you have to individually create each bills (invoices) you received from your vendor. Then, click the Pay bills option to pay them all at once. As a result, it will generate one check since they are belong to one vendor. check1.JPGcheck1a.JPG

 

Also, I've added an article that will help guide you to align checks when printing

Thank you...thank you.  That made it so easy.  Didn't even think about going to pay bills.

I have a question about the "projects" feature.  I am having a hard time taking an existing "customer job" and adding it as a project.  It will not pull any existing invoices or bills.  (On all my bills I use the "customer" feature.)  What I have been reading is,  first, when you get a new customer, go to the projects feature first and choose customer, then add new invoice.  Hope that makes sense...

Hi @Cherokee99,

 

I can assist you with your query on how to add an existing invoice to a project. 

 

You'll have to open the invoice you want to add to a project.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Highlight the Sales tab.
  2. Select Invoices.
  3. Search for the correct invoice, then click to open.
  4. Customer drop-down menu, select the project in question. 
  5. Hit Save and close.

This option is unavailable for bill transactions, though you can add expenses to projects. You can apply the same steps above. You only need to open an existing expense, then change the Payee column to the correct project. 

 

If you have other queries about the Projects feature, take a look at this article: Projects FAQ. It has a list of common questions about this feature, as well as related links for it.

 

Let me know if you have other concerns. Leave a comment below, and I'll get back to you.
