Overview of the navigation menu
To simplify navigation for both accounting professionals and business owners, we’re moving to one consolidated menu shared across Business View and Accountant View.
You can clean up the way your menu looks by selecting Expand 
Bookmarks have moved to the top of the menu for quick access.
Hover and flyout menu interactions continue to show all sub-menu items when you hover over the main menu item.
Dashboards include the Get things done productivity centre, the Business overview, and your Cash flow page.
Transactions let you import, categorise, and review bank transactions, app transactions, and receipts. You can also reconcile and manage your Chart of accounts.
Sales holds your invoicing centre and can monitor income over time.
Expenses has your expense actions like pay suppliers and track mileage.
Customers & leads is where you set up and track customers and market to customers with access to Mailchimp.
Reports tell you about different aspects of your business. Some focus on sales, others focus on your spending, and some look at parts of each.
Payroll is where you manage employees and contractors, track their time and benefits, and stay in compliance with tax and legal requirements.
Time helps your employees track their time with QuickBooks Time. Then, that time flows into QuickBooks for payroll, invoicing, and more.
GST: Track GST on everything you buy, sell, and spend. Then prepare to lodge your tax, knowing exactly what you owe and when to pay.
Apps is where you find other QuickBooks products and third-party apps.
Projects (available in Plus) is where you can track profitability from project income, expenses, labour costs, and run project-specific reports from a single dashboard.
My accountant lets you directly communicate and collaborate with your accountant from within QuickBooks.
Try out the new menu
If you get the following message, you have access to try out the new left menu early. For about 30 days, you can choose when to opt into the new menu.
You can customise, get more info, or switch back to your old menu for a limited time by selecting Menu settings. As you try it out, we’d love your feedback.
If you don’t see these options yet, don’t worry – we’re rolling this out to all our customers over time.
