What’s new in QuickBooks Desktop 2024

Learn what’s new in QuickBooks Desktop 2024 and QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise 24.0.

We've revamped our release process so you no longer have to: 

• Wait for an annual release to get access to improvements and enhancements
• Take time away from your business to install a new version-year on all your computers

Now, instead of an annual release, you'll get a message within QuickBooks Desktop to install the latest updates as soon as they're available. Simply accept the periodic in-product update notifications to make sure you have the latest feature and security updates.

Here are the features included in the QuickBooks Desktop and QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise and how you can use them to benefit your business.

Release 16 (R16_34) 9/9/2025

Invoice Profitability by Customer Report

See the precise profit generated from every single transaction, not just the overall job. Easily find your most and least profitable invoices and services, so you know where to focus your efforts.

Email Enhancement

Set customer contacts as default email recipients for your transactions. Your last used email address is automatically saved as the default email recipient for that transaction.

Release 15 (R15_34) 5/20/2025

Use alternate suppliers in QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions

System Configuration settings

You can go to Help, select System Configuration, then select the appropriate option to adjust Windows system settings from within QuickBooks Desktop.
