Hi, Working on a zap that triggers when a specific invoice is created in QBO, gives the client 24 hours to pay, but then deletes the invoice if they don’t pay in that window. Here’s what I’ve tried so far: Trigger: Invoice created Filter: Only continue if it is for “summer camp” Delay: Wait 24 hours Find payment: This is where I have trouble. You can only search for a payment with a payment ID. I need to find the exact payment that is correlated with the original invoice and, if it doesn’t exist, delete the original invoice. Any help is appreciated!krista

Finding payment linked to an invoice in QBO

Hi,

Working on a zap that triggers when a specific invoice is created in QBO, gives the client 24 hours to pay, but then deletes the invoice if they don’t pay in that window. Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

Trigger: Invoice created
Filter: Only continue if it is for “summer camp”
Delay: Wait 24 hours
Find payment: This is where I have trouble. You can only search for a payment with a payment ID. I need to find the exact payment that is correlated with the original invoice and, if it doesn’t exist, delete the original invoice.

Any help is appreciated!

Use QuickBooks Online: Find Invoice trigger to retrieve the latest status of the original invoice.

Map the Invoice ID from the trigger step.

Check if the invoice’s Balance field is 0 (paid) or >0 (unpaid).

Add a Filter or Paths step:

If Balance = 0: End the Zap (payment received).
If Balance > 0: Proceed to delete the invoice.

QBO does not natively support invoice deletion in Zapier but you can do so by API as per this thread:
