Good day to you, @marina12.

Allow me to guide you on how to achieve this in your QuickBooks Online (QBO) account.

Once you copied a purchase order (PO) to the bill, you can delete the line item of the PO that you don’t want to bill. Let me show you how:

Go to the Expenses menu.
Locate and open the Purchase Order.
Select the Copy to Bill button.
Click the Trash (delete) icon on the line item you don’t want to be billed.
When prompted, select Remove line.
Then click Save and close once done.

I’ve also added this link that you can use for reference in paying your bills: Enter and pay bills.

Yes, everything added to the Purchase order remains intact, @marina12.

Let me clear these things out for you so you can continue to run your business.

If you have an item that is part of your Purchase order (PO) that you don’t want to bill, you can delete it. This way, it will not be included once you make payment. Doing this method won’t affect your PO transaction.

You can refer to these screenshots for visual reference:
