Hello,

I am new to using the Project module in QBO and I am confused with how to get the Customer's Estimate to display in the Project associated.

 

Here are the steps that were taken:

1. Created the Customer first (we don't want to add the project unless the customer is going forward with us)

2. Estimate was sent to the customer via QBO - Note the customer has approved it verbally, but not through QBO

3. Under the Customers menu, I see the Estimate under Transaction List

4. Go over to the Projects tab for the Customer and click the Add project button

5. I have named the Project the street name of the customer

6. I then go back to the Estimate under the customers transactions, and change the customer name to the Project Name

I can get that far, but when I go back to the Project, I don't see the Estimate.  Looking at the column headers in the Project screen, perhaps I am not meant to see the Estimate there?

When I start to create invoices from estimate, will the income and costs start to populate?

 

I guess I just assumed that the transactions would display under the Project, but that does not appear to be the case. Is that correct?

 

Thank you!
