We use 2007 Pro, contractor edition. Many of our jobs are paid in thirds.
Could you tell me the correct way to handle the money taken in before the
job is complete and the final payment is made? Thanks. -Allen Thompson

To start, unfortunately I do not have contractor edition, but I have
2007 qb pro. However, you should have an option to create progress
invoicing. IN qb pro i think its 'edit:preferences: jobs and
customers' then company preferences. it works ok.

One thing I found with qb anyway is that their editions, like qb PRO
and qb ONLINE or in your case perhaps qb contractor they all do the
same thing but the specifics are called different things, like in your
version customer job may be called something else.

Best of luck.

Robert is right, you can do progress invoicing. You'll enter the full
amount and then tell QB what % you want to invoice/bill. OR--simply
invoice the full amount. Then when you 'receive payments' that are
partial payments, QB will just keep track on the amount still owed. I
hope that helps!
