QuickBooks Q&A
Recently active
I run QB Desktop Enterprise 2023. In the last 2 or 3 weeks I have run into a problem with multi-user mode. My workstation and the server runs on Windows 11. My AP's workstation is Windows 10. Whenever AP gets on QB it automatically puts her in single user mode. If she tries to change to multi-user mode she gets error H202. I have no problem switching from single user mode to multi-user mode on my workstation or the server. When AP is working, we both cannot be on QB.I have gone through all the suggestions on https://quickbooks.intuit.com/learn-support/en-us/help-article/multi-user-mode/fix-error-h202-h505/L6yKdQ6s9_US_en_US?uid=lkr1i7pgMy IT person has checked everything she could think to try.Last Saturday, I contacted QB support and we decided to remove QB from the AP's workstation and install it again. I asked if the 2 different Windows would make a difference and she said no. QB support said she would call me Tuesday morning to follow-up, but unfortunately that did not h

Hello - we use QB online and have an AMEX Business card. Need help finding a solution that allows for expense management. In others words I would like the employee to be able to use a system to tag certain AMEX transactions for a job name/invoice then be able to integrate that input into QuickBooks jobs. Any solutions?
When my son in law started his LLC in February he didn't have a checking account. So he just used his personal credit card and the checks he was receiving as payment for services to pay for expenses. This was from February to August 2024. I manually entered the Invoices and Purchases into Quickbooks so that he could pay accurate Sales Tax. In September he opened a business checking account and linked it to Quickbooks. On the Balance Sheet and Income Statement (Profit and Loss) this Income that was used to keep his business going is showing as "Other Current Assets" as tho he still retains it, but he doesn't, its been used for expenses for the business. The months that have the checking account linked are showing up correctly. How do I reconcile this in Quickbooks correctly so I can close his books for 2024? Thank you in advance for you help.

Hi Community, I'm looking for ways to integrate our Shopify/Shopee/Lazada/Affirm/Visa and other payment/e-commerce platforms with QuickBooks without incurring developer costs. I'm open to basic solutions, like exporting data to Excel and reformatting it for QuickBooks upload. Any ideas? Regards,Ethan
For one of my contract laborers, the amount on the 1099NEC is shown as only his first payment rather than the total for the entire year. I had listed every payment to him as 'Contract Labor' and all the payments show up in the list of 'Contract Labor' on the P&L Statement, so why wouldn't the 1099NEC show the total?
I do a month's bookkeeping for a company at the end of the month. Usually I enter in this company's vendor's bills and then match the bank feeds against them. But occasionally I just match a bill/invoice directly in the bank feeds. I'm taking a course at the moment and it's talking about the diff b/w a bill and an expense. It says the diff is a bill is one where a vendor sends you an invoice to pay at a later time while an expense happens right then. That's fine. But what happens in the case I described above, where the bill is being entered into QBO and the payment is being recognized on the same day. Is it getting recorded as a bill or an expense?
I have properly linked my Chase business account and quickbooks online. The checking account updates properly, but the credit card info will not. Even when I try to manually update, quickbooks will not allow me to accept the data.
How do I print an invoice and packing slip that the item has zero price? When we ship sample items to our customer with zero cost, we want to be able to print an invoice and packing slip for shipping. However, because the amount is zero, QB considered it paid. When we print the packing slip and invoice, the line item is not printed on the report. What is the procedure so we can generate proper packing slip
I have a client that uses QBO but has never reconciled their linked bank accounts or linked credit card accounts since they started using QBO. Without having to go back to 2017 and reconcile from the beginning, what is the best way to get them caught up and accurate moving forward? The QBO balance on the transaction page is not accurate. It appears to have payments from years back that have posted recently again. I don't know what the client touched, but I want to make this as easy as possible so I don't have to spend hours getting it resolved. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I'm a new user to QBO and am still learning too.
how does the employee establish a login if the invitation is not being sent to the employee?
When I run the 940 report, I have a minor difference in the wages subject to tax and the wages actually taxed. I have tried to determine the difference but without luck so far. So now that I am getting ready for a new year, I would like some help in identifying the Payroll Item List entries correctly. How do I define an income account as to whether or not the Federal Unemployment Tax will apply ... whether or not this income account is subject to the FUTA tax calculation? Thanks in advance. I will appreciate any responses at your earliest convenience.
I have the latest payroll release 22501, however the 2025 retirement contribution limit is still at the 2024 amount.
I’ve made some test transactions on the QBSE app, to experiment and learn how to use it. I would like to delete these transactions now to keep the place organised and tidy. These were scanned receipts. There doesn’t seem to be an option to delete the transactions, only to exclude them. They’re just nonsense transactions so I don’t want them sitting around on my profile even if they are excluded. Is there anyway to permanently remove them. Again, not excluded, I’d like them totally gone. many thanks, Mike
I have been on QB Pro 2012 for years and finally decided to upgrade (?) to QB Pro Desktop 2021 (nonsubscription). I am on Windows 10. Office 2013. I do not subscribe to Payroll b/c I have one employee, a spouse, and she is exempt from almost everything to my CPA says he only wants and needs the excel form.I did not overwrite the 2012 program or data. I installed QB 2021, put it in the default directory, and COPIED the 2012 datafile to a new 2021 data directory. I am able to open the file and generate most reports (that I have tried) and even some EXCEL reports. However, the EXCEL report I use the most is the Tax Forms worksheets from QB to Excel. These work fine in QB2012 even after doing the upgrade. However, when I try to do the export in 2021 I get an error message. When I select the Tax Forms worksheets in QB2021 it seems to load QB_Taxform_Link1.xlt and, if marcros are enabled, it loads the menu that lets

Hello, Our church needs to track multiple funds within one bank account. I can see multiple ways to do this, and I'd like some advice on which way is best. The funds we're tracking include money held in reserve for an employee that will be paid at a later date. Another fund is money earmarked by our Board to give to people who request help with travel costs to attend events and services. Both these funds decrease periodically as money is paid out. They increase annually when the Board earmarks more money for the travel fund, and monthly in the case of the employee fund. So one way to track this would be to create liability accounts for each fund. I like the way this shows up as a liability line on the Balance Sheet. This is better than where it's been showing up as a sub-account of the Bank account under Assets. My question about this is if it's legit to take the opening balance for this fund from an equity account. We report all previous years net income and our o
I have been trying and failing to send my PO through quickbooks to a vendor the last couple days. I get the "Quickbooks is unable to send emails due to network connection failure." error message. I have updated windows on my server, I have updated quickbooks, I have deleted my email address from the send forms tab in preferences and re-inputted my email, I have switched from the quickbooks emails and clicked ok - just to go back to the regular email, I verified the file, rebuilt the file and none of this has worked. The vendor I was trying to send the PO to has two different names, separated by a semi-colon, in the "To:" box. As a last ditch attempt to do something, I deleted one of the names from the box. It worked. Can someone help me as to why this is happening all of a sudden?
Hi, I was creating an invoice and accidentally swiped on the trackpad and it caused the browser to back into previous page. My invoice was lost. Is there a way to restore it or avoid this happening in the future?
