It's great to see that you've entered the supplier's details, Mel1234. That’s the first step.

 

Regarding your question, you're correct that you should enter the supplier invoice as a bill in QuickBooks Online. This records the amount you owe to the supplier and tracks it in Accounts Payable until you are ready to pay it.

 

To create a bill, follow these steps:

 

  1. In the left menu, select + Create.
  2. Choose Bill.
  3. From the Supplier ▼ dropdown, select a supplier.
  4. From the Terms ▼ dropdown, select the bill's payment terms, which indicate when the supplier expects payment.
  5. Enter the Bill dateDue date, and Bill no. exactly as they appear on the bill.
  6. Select the Type field. If you only need to enter flat rates, select Category details. Or, if you need to include specific product or service details on the form, select Item details.
  7. Enter the Amount and any applicable Tax.
  8. Select Save and close.

 

When you're ready to record payments, you can refer to this article for detailed guidance: Pay bills in QuickBooks Online.
