When you record an invoice in QuickBooks Online, it should appear on the balance sheet as an AR entry. This represents the money owed to your business by your customers and is reflected as a current asset under the Accounts Receivable section.
When you notice that it's showing on the aging report but not on your financial statement, there could be a few reasons for this.
Firstly, QuickBooks Online provides two accounting methods: accrual and cash basis. If your company uses accrual accounting, the invoice will appear on the balance sheet upon creation, regardless of its payment status. This approach recognizes income and expenses when incurred, not when money is physically received.
Conversely, with cash-based accounting, the invoice will only populate once paid. Furthermore, let's double-check that the transaction date falls within the reporting period you're viewing.
If you are still experiencing the same issue, there might be other factors at play. Consider checking for any filters or customization applied to the report.
