How to populate description with part number

Thanks for the additional details and screenshots regarding your concern, @jdnewberry7.I reviewed it further and see that the information you shared about selecting an item behavior in the new invoice layout is correct.

Currently, the option to show the product/services' part number (SKU) and description of your transactions is unavailable in the new format of QuickBooks Online (QBO). Only the item name will appear when typing in the Product/Service column, and you'll have to select one item first to view its part number (SKU) and descriptions in the meantime.

For now, I recommend sending feedback to our Product Development Team regarding this matter. They're willing to receive your requests and actively encourage you to share your insights and suggestions. Let me show you how:

1. Go to the Gear icon at the top.
2. Select Feedback.
3. Type in your feedback and product suggestions.
4. Click Next to submit them.

In addition, you can check out this article to learn how to personalize and add specific details to your invoice and other form styles in the program: Customize invoices, estimates, and sales receipts in QuickBooks Online.
