- Choose the Customer:
- In the “Customer:Job” field, select the customer who is purchasing the training materials.
- Add Line Items:
- In the invoice, add line items for the training materials you are selling. Include a description of the materials, the quantity, the unit price, and any additional charges.
- QuickBooks will automatically calculate the total amount due based on the line items.
- Specify the Sales Date:
- In the “Invoice Date” field, enter the date of the sale.
- Choose an Income Account:
- In the “Income Account” field, select the appropriate income account that corresponds to the sale of training materials. If you haven’t already set up an income account for this type of revenue, you can create one.
- Specify the Payment Terms:
- Enter the payment terms, such as the due date.
- Save and Send the Invoice:
