Set up and use location tracking in QuickBooks Online

Location tracking is used to categorize data from different locations, offices, regions, outlets, or departments of the same company. This feature lets you see all the payments for one location and deposit them as a group.

Note: This feature is only available for QuickBooks Online Plus and QuickBooks Online Advanced.

If you have employees and want to track their time, consider QuickBooks Online Payroll Premium or Elite. This also includes advanced time tracking options like time off requests, mobile time entry, and scheduling.
