Question

We have several companies in our QB Enterprise Desktop where we bulk-loaded the vendor information. We now need to add a beginning balance for these vendors. Is there a way to add the balances for all of the vendors at once. Copy-paste from a spreadsheet does not work as the balance field does not allow data to be copied into it. Thanks.

Thanks for reaching out to the Community, mwgreen61.

 

To enter opening balances for vendors, you'll need to enter the bills associated with each vendor. This creates open balances that collectively result in your Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable opening balances.

 

I can certainly understand how an ability to add balances for multiple vendors at the same time could be useful and have submitted a suggestion about it on your behalf.

 

You can also submit your own feature requests while using QuickBooks.

 

Here's how:
 

  1. In the top menu bar, go to Help, then Send Feedback Online.
  2. Choose the Product Suggestion option.
  3. Enter your feedback or feature request.
  4. Select Send Feedback.

 

Your feedback's definitely valuable to Intuit. It will be reviewed by our Product Development team and considered in future updates. You can stay up-to-date with the latest news about your product by reviewing Intuit's Product Updates page.

 

You also have the option of checking our QuickBooks Desktop Marketplace for apps which may be able to help you achieve what you're looking to accomplish.

 

I've also included a couple detailed resources which may come in handy moving forward:
 

 

If there's any additional questions, I'm just a post away. Have a wonderful Wednesday!
