Key benefits of the refreshed experience

Refreshed interface: Positioned below the app carousel, the dashboard offers a way to create customized actions you can bookmark. Plus, your clients can customize their workspace with a greater selection of widgets than ever before. 

Modern view reporting: Run reports faster with a streamlined reporting experience designed for speed and clarity. Customize filters, groupings, and layouts in one place, drill into transaction details, and see automatically-refreshed data—so your clients can quickly turn financial information into insights. 

Smarter invoicing: Your clients can update and personalize invoices, estimates, and receipts as they’re creating them so they see exactly what their customer will receive. They can easily add payment options, discounts, late fees, and customize it for their business. 

A deeper look at your new tools

Modern view reporting

Reports maintain the familiar data and customization options clients rely on, while introducing new ways to explore and analyze their financial information. If they’ve saved custom reports in classic view, they’ll transfer over to modern view with all your clients’ data, filters, and settings so they can continue working with the reports they rely on, just in the updated experience. 

• Persistent customization: Your clients’ custom filters, data ranges, and display settings remain even if they click into transactions and return to the report.
• Auto-refresh: When clients update a transaction and return to the report, it’ll refresh automatically so the latest data is always visible.
• Favourite reports: You clients can bookmark their most-used reports as favourites for quick, one-click access.
• Cleaner data formatting: Modern reports now honour GAAP-aligned accounting orders (Assets, Liabilities, Equities, Income, Expenses) in reports like the General Ledger and Trial Balance. We've also enabled drill-downs into zero-dollar accounts and defaulted to hiding rows with no activity or balances (like Cost of Goods Sold, if irrelevant to your clients’ business) for a cleaner view.
• Optimized experience: Reports run faster and handle larger volumes of data more efficiently, reducing timeouts and improving reliability—even for businesses with high transaction activity. 
• Simplified controls: Frequently used settings like display options and comparisons are prioritized at the top of the report, while filters, groupings, and pivot tools are organized in a single right-hand panel. This streamlined layout gives clients more screen space to focus on data while keeping customization tools easy to access. All controls (filters, groupings, and pivots) are consolidated into a single right-hand panel.
• Your clients’ reports move with them: Any saved classic custom reports will automatically transition to the refreshed view with the same data, filters, and settings—so your clients can continue working with the reports they rely on, just in the updated experience. 

Refreshed invoicing: Your clients can get paid with less back-and-forth. They can create, send, and manage invoices and quotes easily to simplify how they work. 

• On-the-spot customization: Clients can customize estimates and invoices directly on the form they’re about to send. Instead of managing multiple templates, all formatting and content options are available right on the page, and QuickBooks remembers your clients’ preferences for the next form they create. 
• Get paid faster with online payments*: If your clients use QuickBooks Payments, they can include convenient payment options like credit cards, bank transfers, or digital wallets directly on their invoices. Their customers can pay online as soon as they receive the invoice, helping your clients reduce delays and improve cash flow. 
• Real-time tracking: Your clients can see the status of their estimates and invoices in one place. They can track when customers view or approve estimates, send reminders for unpaid invoices, and record payments as they come in—so they always know where things stand. 
• Convert estimates instantly: When a customer approves an estimate, your clients can quickly convert it into an invoice without reentering information, helping them move smoothly from quote to payment.  
• Manage invoices from anywhere: Whether your client is at their desk or on the go, they can create, send, and track estimates and invoices from the QuickBooks mobile app. Their work autosaves so they can pick up where they left off at any time. 

Important dates and implementation

• May 8: We’ll begin rolling out the refreshed interface as the default experience. Once these updates are live, the classic view will no longer be available. 
• May 22: All accounts will transition to the updated reports layout in stages to provide access to the latest customization and scaling tools. 
• Throughout May:The new invoicing layout will be enabled. This becomes the final, fixed view once your account has transitioned.
