Hi Almm,

Thanks for reaching out here.  QuickBooks Desktop is a powerful program that allows you to complete your daily bookkeeping tasks with peace of mind.  I can see how beneficial it would be to have the backorder column on invoices.  I'll be happy to provide more information so you're on the right track with your work.

Although you can't track backorders on invoices, you can customize a report to see what items are on backorder by following these steps:

1. Open Reports from the menu and from Sales select Open sales orders by item

2. Enter the Dates and open Customize report

3. From the Columns section in the Display tab, choose only Backordered

4. Hit OK

Please feel free to reach back out with any other questions.  We'd be glad to assist!
