Question

Distinguishing Different PO's When Creating Bills

We use QBO Premier and are a Construction Company.  All of our subcontractors have a PO entered for each job that lists the payment scheduled.  When we create a bill for a sub that has multiple PO's open, we get the list of these PO's on the right side, but can not figure out a way to determine what goes to what job, except to pen each one.  In Desktop, you could see the Memo, so we'd place the job name there.

 

Any suggestions on marking the PO for a particular job so it shows up when creating a bill?  I've attached a screen shot of what it looks like.

Hey there, @skoz5555

 

It's great to see you back in the QuickBooks Community. I'd be more than happy to give you some additional information. 

 

Have you tried clicking the "More" option on the purchase order that's to the right of the bill screen? This should give you more insight into what the PO was for. 

 

If you have done these steps but want those details to pop up without clicking the "more" button, I recommend submitting feedback to our Product Developers. They will review your request and try to consider it as a feature in the near future. Here's how: 

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon in the top right-hand corner. 
  2. Press the Feedback option. 
  3. Enter your suggestions. 
  4. Tap Next to submit them successfully. 

 

I hope this helps answer your question. If you need any further assistance, don't hesitate to reach back out. Have a wonderful day!
