Fix blank invoices synced from HoneyBook to QuickBooks

Troubleshoot $0 invoices and apply payments in QuickBooks to match HoneyBook invoicing accurately

Updated yesterday

If an error occurs where a blank invoice has synced to QuickBooks from HoneyBook, you can try a few steps in HoneyBook and QuickBook to ensure the invoice and payment correlate.

  1. In HoneyBook from the navigation menu, select Finance > Payments

  2. Find the payment, client, and invoice in question

  3. In QuickBook from the navigation menu, select Sales > Invoices

  4. Find the invoice that matches, which will be a $0 invoice, then select View/edit

  5. Edit the invoice to match the one in HoneyBook by entering the following:

    1. Product or service

    2. Description

    3. If applicable, the quantity, rate, amount, or tax

  6. Save changes to the invoice

  7. In QuickBook from the navigation menu, select Reports > Standard report > Profit and loss report

  8. For accounting method, select Cash > the appropriate date range

  9. Select the “Unapplied payment income” amount > the payment in question

  10. Add the invoice previously changed, then select it by checking the check box

  11. Select Save


By performing these steps, the invoice in QuickBooks will be corrected to match the invoice in HoneyBook, the corresponding payment will be applied, and the profit and loss report will be rectified and no longer show an unapplied payment.
