i’m trying to get my Zap to create an invoice in Quickbooks online based on a new record in my Airtable base.

i have successfully used a search step to see if the vendor already exists in QB and create it if not.

when i try to create the invoice, it says that i’m using something that’s inactive, but i cannot for the life of me figure out what might be inactive. here are screen shots of my action step:

 

does it matter that my QB online is set up as a nonprofit, so my invoices are called “pledges”?

thanks for any assistance!

Hi @AI_hello 

Help articles for using QBO in Zaps: https://zapier.com/apps/quickbooks/help

Can you post a screenshot of the “inactive” message to give us context?

 

oh, i’m dumb! (always best to wait a day to see if you can answer your own darn question, haha)

it was a problem with my search step, i accidentally set it up to find a vendor, rather than a customer.

thank you for your help!!
