QuickBooks Online plus. How can I record an expense as a product/service (Item) from the receipt expense window? Would like to avoid inputting a new expense from scratch.

Thanks for the screenshot! Let me elaborate some information when recording an expense from the receipt expense window, Jl.

For now, creating an expense can only be done manually. You'll want to send feedback to our product team to let them know how this is useful and saves time for your business. To do so, follow the steps outlined below:

1. Go to the Gear ⚙ icon, then Feedback.
2. Enter your comments or product suggestions. Then select Next to submit feedback.

This goes to our Product Development team to help improve your experience in QuickBooks Online. You can track feature requests through the QuickBooks Online Feature Requests website.

Furthermore, QuickBooks offers different reports that caters to your business. You'll only have to make sure to customise them to get the right data you need. I've added this article for more information: Customize Reports in QuickBooks Online.

Please get back to us and let me know if you have any questions when uploading receipts or creating expenses in QuickBooks. We're here to help you all through the way.
