I buy some items in bulk and then, after this item comes in, I move it from the bulk item list to a sub-item using the inventory "adjust inventory on hand" feature.  It seems to me that there is no value change in this re-distribution but rarely is the value change "zero" as i would expect.  What is going on in the background that I'm not understanding?I have attached an example

Our nonprofit organization has been subscribing to QBO, but recently accessed use of QuickBooks premier nonprofit edition. Can we move our data back to a desktop edition? 

i have just purchased qb premier desktop (upgrade from pro) in order to use units of measure as i sell two different types of units, the first "by the unit", the second "by the PMP" (pmp is just a fancy word for square foot in my industry).i have been testing a few items and am pleased.the problem is that when i do "inventory valuation summary", the um column shows (at the bottom) "mixed" as a total. i need to see how much is "unit" and how much is "pmp".how do i do that?jacques[email address removed]

We are an electrical sub-contractor in Saskatchewan.  Many of our commercial customers only pay GST and are PST exempt.  I set this up in their customer profile.Also in Saskatchewan we are not allowed to charge any taxes on the charge for an electrical permit.  That is set up as exempt in the item description.When I am invoicing those specific customers, when I enter the item line "Permit" Quickbooks overrides the item description and charges GST on the permit.Can I stop this from happening?

AR or Open invoice reports are not pulling description from the invoices into the report. Is there an easy way for me to track what the A/Rs are for? The easiest I can find is by going into QBO and looking at each invoice. Is that the easiest way?

This has only been an issue since the update to the Square integration in the past month or so. It's happening only with certain transactions but I can't figure out why or how to fix it.

This week I exported 18 years worth of company data from QB Desktop 2023 to QB Online Easy-Start.  I noticed all my vehicle and mileage history did not make it over to QBO.  I will start from scratch going forward, but this could be a big deal if I find myself audited.  I uncovered this ambiguous reference "However, there are some pieces of information that won’t convert or transfer automatically with your company file."  in this article: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/learn-support/en-ca/help-article/import-export-files/migrating-quickbooks-desktop-quickbooks-online/L47H2Uugp_CA_en_CA?uid=l9h9cbnn I would like to read something a lot more specific about what data I can expect to lose by "upgrading" to QB Online.  Is my mileage history gone for good?  What else have I sacrificed by choosing this upgrade?  Surely I cannot be the first person to encounter this?  Note: in 2016 I was audited by CRA and having access to the historical mileage

I have taken over bookkeeping in Quickbooks Online for a small restaurant/pub in BC Canada that also sells merch (t-shirts) and does cabin rentals. They use Touchbistro to enter sales of food, beverages and merch, and Campspot for the cabin rentals. There are two different merchant accounts collecting and depositing money daily to the bank account.  All revenues are directed to the Cash Clearing account which is cleared at the end of the month with a journal entry to separate the revenues into different categories, and to record the sales taxes collected. In BC there are 3 PST tax rates: 7% on meals and non-alcoholic drinks, 10% on alcoholic beverages, and 8% hotel tax on the cabin rentals.  There is also the 5% GST on everything. When money is deposited from the Merchant account, I can't enter all of the individual tax rates on the single deposit, which is why it is broken down in one journal entry at the end of the month.  However, when done this way, when yo

I had a credit with the Hydro company so when trying to pay bills and using the credit, they come out as zero paid.  I would like to purge these pay bills but afraid it will affect the reconciliations already done.  The bills come out of bank automatically, so they are paid.

Hello! I am using Quickbooks Desktop, and when i send out all the customer statements, it has a default email address which is the previous accountant that i took over.

I run a small C-Corporation and W-2 myself through it. Through the corporation I pay rent on a 1200 square foot condo which is where the majority of work takes place. With a few exceptions (kitchen, sitting area, bed, closet, bathroom) the majority of the condo has been retrofitted as business workspaces. I have calculate the usage of the premises for business purposes to be about 80% of the condo. And at a reasonable prevailing rate, the rental of such far exceeds the monthly rental cost.Am I within compliance to simply write off the monthly rent as a business expense on my corporate tax return, or should the monthly rental expense be characterized as a fringe benefit to myself as an employee, and then the business use of home tax deduction taken personally? Or should there be some combination of both?

Hello, I'm trying to add something to my quickbooks online. Not sure if I'm able to do it. Currently I have customers that send Purchase orders for say 500,000 of one item. We bill them as they need them 100,000 for example on one invoice.  Is it possible to input the 500,000 PO into quickbooks. Then have quickbooks track when I invoice out the 100,000. Also I want to be able to show on the invoice (ie. PO Total, PO Remaining etc.).  I'd also like to make a statement or report when the customer needs it at the end of the month that shows all purchase orders with the total / billed out / remaining on there.  Is any of this possible?
