First, not all customers pay their invoices in full, for various reasons.  Also, it is important to apply payments to invoices in the amounts the customer intended, to match their records. 

The screenshot I provided was from a client and they hired someone to supposedly fix their books, but instead that person uploaded 10 years of journal entries erroneously .  Their current QBO file is such a mess that it cannot feasibly be corrected. 

I am starting a new QBO file for them, exporting current FY entries and importing them to the new file, excluding the journal entries. However, I am unable to import the Payments because none of the reports in QBO shows the applied payment amounts to the invoices. Because of that. the client has to reenter the hundreds of payments that did not import (the payments that paid invoices in full did import).  

I put in a request with Intuit to add a column for applied payments on the Invoices and Received Payments report! It is critical for various reasons.  A f few of examples are:  One, the reason I explained above. Also,  the information would help troubleshoot and find errors in data entry, or to see how someone is entering payments.  And, it would help to be able to compare how a business is applying customer payments to how their customer is applying payments on their end.

It would be great if others would put that request in to Intuit.  Simply request "to add a column for applied payments on the Invoices and Received Payments".  That would help to implement the request if enough people request it.
