Sync Write-Offs with QuickBooks Online

Modified on Wed, 17 Apr at 12:08 PM

If you are not going to be paid for a portion of an invoice (for example, the amount outstanding has become a bad debt or you are offering a client a goodwill gesture), then Pet Sitter Plus supports an invoice write off function where you can write off the total or part of the amount owing. 


Write offs are a common accounting function and a means by which to write off bad debts from your set of financial accounts.
