how do I remove business number from invoice description field?

Question

All my invoices have the text "Business number xxx xxx xxx xxx" inserted after the work description field on my invoices. It does not show up "create invoices window" but it shows up on the preview. I figure it is part of the invoice template but it does not show up in the layout designer either.

Where might I be able to remove this information. I want it at the bottom of the invoice, not in the work description field.

Any advise is appreciated.

Company | Company Information ; delete entry in Business Number field

Don't know why you want to delete that. IIRC, if you have an RT number you must charge GST and in invoices over $ 30.00 the GST number MUST be displayed.

If you sell GST included and set up your items a such, you still must display the RT number.

Under Lists | Tax Code Lists there is (or you can set up) and item "." or "no taxes (anything you want to call it)" that has 0% GST and 0% PST.

Experiment by making a copy of your .qbw file and try it there. You will see that it doe not show up in Print Preview.

I guess I could have elaborated.Its not that I want the GST number removed, but I definitely do not want it where it is currently displayed in the "description" area below my text of the invoices. I would rather have it somewhere at the bottom.I dont want to remove it from the invoice, but move it to the bottom.Layout designer doesnt let me do this.Are there other ways to control how my invoicesare structured?FrankRemove dashes "-----------" to e-mail.

That is easily done in QB2000 and should really be easier in newer versions. Follow the instructions of removing the RT number. Create a new invoice. In Layout Designer use the Footer for your Business Number or make a new Field and type in your Business Number.

See http://i3.t>I guess I could have elaborated.

We had the same problem. We added our GST# and placed it where wewanted it to show up on our invoice templates through the LayoutDesigner.  Then we went into "Edit Preferences" and under "GST/PSTCompany Preferences", we removed the number completely.  This complieswith having our business number show up on our invoices BUT only wherewe want it to display.
