Why does the updates for 2024 take an excessive amount of time to update! This has never been an issue until 2024! What happens if you decline to do the update? Pay more money now than ever before & it absolutely is horrid trying to successfully do an update.
My beginning balance is correct and reconciled. It does not show on the Statement of Activity Report. If I look at the registry:the date is the same month I started enteringThe Ref Type is DepositThe Payee Account is Opening Balance Equity should this be something else?The Memo is Opening Balance should this be something else?The Payment is (Blank) should this be my opening balance?The Deposit is (my opening balance)The checkbox is (R)The balance is (my opening balance)A QB Expert reviewed this input with me, but I didn't ask about it appearing on the SoA Report.
I am trying to connect with my credit card by commerce bank of wyoming which has it on the list but doesn't let me connect even after caching it and doing incognito mode....anybody has this issue and how did you resolve it?
I upgraded my QB desktop for Mac to the 2024 version last week and it has since been excessively slow to pull the reports and to change the information within the report once up (i.e. to remove type, memo, etc.). It causes crash catcher to appear if I ask for a large report for my accountant, like a GL for last year. Can anyone tell me how to fix this problem?
I use clover as POS and Quickbook desktop for bookkeeping. I have been enter manually all the sales from clover to quickbook and it time consuming. I want to start doing daily sales receipts or daily sales instead of every single sales. Can this be done and how to setup so i can reconcile with bank (since clover deposit to bank for credit card)? what about check and cash.
We have a membership list in excel. Can we import the names and addresses, as we want to send invoices to all.

I understand how to create an item in the item list and have the item to link to one revenue GL account and one COGS GL expense account. However, this feature in item list only allows the item to link to one receivable GL account, which is QB's default account receivable GL account. Is there any way that I can have one of the items set up in item list to reflect the receivable amount in other receivable GL account besides the default receivable GL account? For instance, I want to post a 100% work completed AR invoice, AR invoice is $60,000, and the customer is going to hold 10% of it until the inspection is done and passed, so I'd like to record it as $54,000 net receivable and $6,000 retention receivable.

How can I determine which invoices applies to a payment received in QB online
I am trying to email multiple memorized reports at once. My problem is that they are splitting the reports to two pages wide every time I try to email them as a group. I have gone to "Printer Setup" and clicked the option under reports for "fit report to 1 page(s) wide" but it does not seem to effect emailing multiple reports at once. If I open an individual report and then click the "Email as PDF" option it attached it to the email correctly at one page wide. But when using the process multiple reports at once it will not put them at once page wide. Can anyone tell me if this is possible or how to do this? (processing multiple reports at once to email but keeping reports 1 page wide) I'm using Quick books Desktop 2018 Premier Edition.
Please tell me there’s a way to remove setup guide. I’ve completed the steps and now I have to stare at the guide trying to sell me services I don’t need or want for months. How long must I endure this pain? it’s clearly an easy feature to develop to “hide setup guide” or “mark all as complete “. How can this be fixed?
I can not find the best way to capture a customer credit card refund within my daily batched bank deposit. QBO claims this is a system limitation. What is the best way to capture that customer card refund on my daily bank card deposit? Thanks
My credit card number has changed due to fraudulant charges on my card. How do I re-connect my card without losing any of my transactions
I am using Quickbooks Pro 2009 (don't laugh) on a standalone, no internet connected computer, no network. We run 7 companies on this program but we recently had a few abort issues with various files (most recent is C-343 and older ones are -6000, -301). I now have all 7 qbw files that I want to use as my MASTER to start updating the last 3 or so weeks of transactions (we just use the A/P and A/R). The files are working fine for me although when I upload the files to our accountant, they are unable to open them (seems like it times out??). In an effort to reduce the file size, I tried the "Condense or Clean up company data" on our largest files which is 311 000 KB (QB Pro 2009) but the "Clean up company data" function doesn't work. It shows the completed progress bar and then it "verifies the data" and then aborts and notes the C=343 error message (the connection to the company file has been lost....). When I log back in, the files I wanted to condense, were not conden
Hello..I hope someone can help us record this properly. We are a small dance studio, and are using a desktop version of Quickbooks. For a limited number of students, we give scholarships, which are an expense for us (we are for-profit and don't receive any grants). Here's the problem we're having with Quickbooks: If we invoice the student account for the full amount due, and then record our scholarship contribution (as an expense account), then our scholarship contribution shows up as an expense, but the full amount of the invoice shows up as income on the P & L, ( and when it's deposited in the bank account it shows up as income again, so it's double income). But most of these are 100% scholarships, so the student isn't usually paying anything, so it greatly inflates our income.But if we invoice the student account for the full amount due, and record the scholarship amount as contraincome, then the income on the P & L only reflects what they actually paid, but our scholarship
We need to run a report that shows all invoices regardless of status. The 2024 edition of QB Desktop excludes "past due" invoices, which is skewing our numbers greatly.
I have 6 line items on my invoice in QBO in order of service date, but for some strange reason line # 3 is being shown as the last line item on the printed/PDF invoice.
I am using QB 2020 Prem with latest update.When I enter a bill or sales receipt using group items I enter the item number but the description of the group and the group price is added after the last item in the group. That really makes a messy bill, sales receipt or invoice.Why can't QB put the group item description and price on the same line? The price of the group is already calculated, thus, I don't see any really why it could not be on the same line?
When we signed up for Quickbooks Advanced online. Quickbooks Online Payroll Core was added as a trial subscription.We do not need this, but need Contractor Pay, but it seems that you cannot take Payroll Core off your account to be able to use Contractor Pay. Is this correct?We are being told that you need to setup a new account and transfer all the data to that account to use Contractor Pay.Please advise...Thanks!
I have a handyman business and have just started using QuickBooks Essentials. I want to confirm I am entering my expenses and invoicing customers correctly.For example: I purchase some materials from Home Depot for a specific customers project (ex: lumber to fix fence) and then I invoice the said customer for these materials without a markup, along with the labor hours. With QuickBooks essentials, I do not have the ability to show the items table or to make expenses billable.I currently 1. create a product/service: name it materials, as a noninventory item; make it a billable expense income in the income account; select: I purchase from a vendor; then select expense account: cost of goods sold-supplies and materials.2. I enter my expense purchase for said materials: ex: Home Depot vendor and use the category: cost of goods sold-supplies and materials3. I go to invoice the customer: for product/service I select the Materials that I created earlier and enter more of a description (ex: lu
Where do I record membership dues?
When I collapse the rows in my report and then print it out, the rows that have hidden sub-accounts are followed by a blank row and the rows that don't have sub-accounts are not. The result is that the report has random blank rows and it takes up more space than needed. The report is a Profit and Loss report. Is Quickbooks designed to do this on purpose or can I get rid of these blank rows? I'd like to avoid having to export the report to Excel, although I have to admit that export works just fine and there are no blank rows inserted into the spreadsheet.
