QuickBooks Online sync error: Bill/Invoice number is being used on another bill from the same vendor. Use a unique invoice number for the vendor bill.

Why the sync error occurs

This error occurs when a new bill or invoice is trying to sync from Bill.com to QuickBooks Online, but the invoice number is already in use for that vendor or customer in QuickBooks Online.

You can fix this error in a few ways:

  • Edit the invoice number in Bill.com to be unique for that customer or vendor
  • Edit the invoice number: find the existing bill or invoice in QuickBooks Online that has the same invoice number as the bill or invoice in the sync error, and change the invoice number to be unique
