Hi katherinejoyceO

Is there any update on this request ?


Hello there, @SuperStar777, 

 

I've read your requests above. I recognize the importance of adding those features in the program, as they make your work easier. As of now, we don't have a specific timeline as to when they will be available in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

 

I'd still suggest checking out our QBO Blog site. You'll learn more about our latest news and product innovations from there. 

 

Also, I recommend visiting this website: Resource Hub. It provides you articles about managing your QBO account, income, expenses, banking, inventory, and running reports. Just click + More topics under Topics to expand the sections. 

 

You can count on me if there's anything else you need. Keep safe always, @SuperStar777.

Thanks for posting in the Community, @SuperStar777.

 

In QuickBooks Online (QBO), the ability to enter an employee name on a bill is currently unavailable. This is only available to customers where-in you can create billable expenses on your customer’s behalf when performing work for them.

 

Since you want to track employee-related costs, you can utilize one of QBO's features called Projects. This will let you track the employees' or workers' hourly cost rates using a timesheet.

 

To learn more about this feature, consider checking out these articles:

 

 

I'll pass along this suggestion to our Product Developers. They're always looking for ideas to consider on how to improve QBO. In the meantime, I recommend visiting our Blog site. This is where we share recent happenings and future developments, such as updates to newly added features.

 

Please let me know in the comment section below if you have any other issues or concerns, and I'll get back to you as soon as possible. I'm more than willing to help. Have a great rest of the day!

Hi,

Thanks for the advice. Project would not help for this case as this is not direct cost of project but it is operational cost, I can say.

Thanks for coming back, @SuperStar777.

 

I can see the importance of adding the employee name on the vendor bill screen. Don't worry, together with my peer, we'll pass this along to our engineers to let them know of your insights. 

 

Letting us know what works best for you will show our developers what they need to consider in future product updates. 

 

Visit again if you have additional concerns. We're always here to listen and help in any way we can.

    Thanks for adding a screenshot, @SuperStar777.

     

    It gives me a better picture of the issue. Based on the details provided, it looks like you’re using QuickBooks Online US.

     

    The Sales Tax feature (US version) doesn’t track taxes from purchases. To help add the custom tax, you can consider subscribing to the international version.

     

    The taxes displayed on the application are automatically created for you. The following article provides an overview of adding, editing, and adding group taxes: How do I set up sales GST/VAT rates and use them on forms? 

     

    To subscribe, I’m adding a link where you’ll see the product comparison and features available for each version: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/ae/pricing/.

     

    Let me know if you have any other questions or concerns about the QuickBooks. I’ll pop right back in to answer them for you. Have a great rest of the day.

    Hi,

    Thanks for the response.

    I can not subscribe the Intl version as I have all the accounts history in QBO.

    Better way was to switch to UAE version instead but unfortunately QBO does not offer such service.

     

    I have seen the serial number for the sales invoice and credit note numbers are linked to each other. Credit note number should have separate numbering system.

    Also, there is not unique numbering system for Payment receipt and Purchase bill.

    Hi, 

    Hi,

    Following up on the dozens of requests by others over the past two years to provide an employee name column on Invoices and Time Reports.

    QBO Advanced is marketed to professional services, which as you know we bill time:
    https://quickbooks.intuit.com/online/advanced/industries/professional-services/

    Years into QBO, not providing an Employee Name column for the time from timesheets, on Invoices and Project Time reports is mind-blowing. Please add this simple request already.
