Thank you but that is way too labor intensive. I expect QBO to be more user friendly than the desktop version and in the desktop version there is a setting in the preferences to have an invoice number populate the memo on the checks you print....I also print checks from the 'pay bills' button.

I do appreciate your detailed reply though!

Have a nice day!

I acknowledge your preference in making your experience easier with QuickBooks Online (QBO), @Lpollock.

Since QBO is different from QuickBooks Desktop, there are differences in how we can create transactions within. Although they share the same purpose of keeping and managing your accounting records, they are terms, or features that don't work the same in each other.

On the other hand, our goal is to meet the diverse needs of businesses. Thus, I suggest forwarding this to our team of product developers, who can evaluate its feasibility for future updates based on the level of demand. Here's how:

Go to the Gear icon.
Under the Profile column, select Feedback.
Share your suggestion, then click Next.

To keep your records accurate, you can visit this article to record bill payments if you have already paid for it: Enter and manage bills and bill payments in QuickBooks Online.

Let me know if there's anything else I can help you about entering bills or any QuickBooks transactions to help manage your account. I'm always available to lend an extra than for help. Stay safe!
