Invoice Template - Cannot update FOB field

Using QB Desktop Premier 2014 (Yea, it's old but it does what we need it to and doesn't involve an on-going cost!), we've updated our address in the Company Info tab to reflect a recent move. 
Our invoices are still showing our old city in the "FOB" field. All other fields updated fine after updating the Company Info. We can't seem to find a place to change the FOB. I'm hoping there's a place hiding to enter it, and not an error with the file. Has anyone seen this before and found a solution?

 

We asked the QB Assistant and they just tried to sell us a subscription based version and categorically would not offer any tips or help with our request. I understand they can't justify supporting the old software but was hoping a quick tip would do it and help out a long time customer who has purchased multiple versions.

Thanks James,

I tried asking the support team for help via chat, they would not offer any tips for our version and only tried to direct me to sales.

Will the phone support team be allowed to give a quick piece of support or will I be wasting my time?

 

Seems to me this is a 5 second fix if one exists!

Hi WaveformP

 

QuickBooks doesn’t keep a list of FOB locations because most companies pick one FOB point.  Therefore, the FOB box doesn’t include a drop-down list.  However, if you set the Usual FOB preference, QuickBooks enters that location here. To choose a different FOB for this order, type the location you want.  QuickBooks then puts this information in the FOB field on invoices and other sales forms.

 

Let us know if this resolves your concerns.  We're here to help!

Thank you so much Trish! Problem Solved!

 

In case anyone else runs into this: When updating our address, all other info was changed in the Company Info section, but FOB is buried in the Edit - Preferences - Sales & Customers - Company Preferences - Usual FOB field.
