HOW DO WE ENTER BOTH AN EXPENSE INVOICE DATE (BILL DATE) AND THE PAYMENT DATE?

It's great to see you in the Community, lars-soderstrom-!

 

We can enter the bill date and the bill payment date by recording a bill and a payment transaction since they both have a date field. Let me guide you through creating these transactions in QuickBooks.

 

Create a bill:

  1. Click on +New and choose Bill.
  2. From the Supplier ▼ dropdown, select a supplier.
  3. From the Terms ▼ dropdown, select the bill's terms.
  4. Enter the Bill dateDue date, and Bill no. as they're recorded on the bill.
  5. Enter the category details or the item details.
  6. When you're done, select Save.
     

Pay the bill:

  1. From the bill transaction page, click on Make payment.
  2. In the Bank/Credit account field, choose the account where the money is taken from.
  3. Enter the Payment date.
  4. Enter the amount in the Amount field.
  5. Click Save and close.
