Time in decimal format on printed invoices

I have been using QuickBooks Online for 3 years now.  I have suggested and posted multiple times that Time entries appearing on printed invoices need to be in Decimal format for accounting reasons.  All my past posts are no where to be found.  I must spend countless hours a week having to manually enter each Billable Time entry (As this is QuickBooks solution….) onto invoices so that they appear properly when sent to customers. 

QuickBooks desktop has the feature I am not sure why it still has not been included into the QuickBooks Online Version.  This appears to be more of a bug in my opinion than an intended feature.

 

As you can see in this first picture I have a Billable Time that needs to be added to an Invoice.  It is displayed in HH:MM.

Once added to the invoice it converts it into decimal format.  This is great!Billable2.png

 

When you actually go to send or print the invoice this format reverts back to HH:MM and not what is displayed on the Invoice editing page..Billable3.pngHere is the core of this issue.  I go to a customer and perform a job.  I clock my time activities with TSheets as it is a great and wonderful product.  These time entries get directly imported into QuickBooks as billable time.  I add the billable time onto invoices.  If I send an invoice to a customer with a QTY of 1:45 how do they enter that into a Purchase Order.  I cannot add 1:45 into a purchase order as a QTY in Quickbooks, how is any other software going to allow this.

I am pleading once again for this simple change to be made and do not understand how more people do not have this issue.

 

Thanks for everything else you do QuickBooks but this one issue is a giant thorn in my side and my business.
