Hello, @JRH2.
I can share some information on how to enter bills in your QuickBooks.
You can have an estimate to create a bid, proposal, or quote to your customers. When they accept it, you can turn this into a sales order or an invoice.
You'll enter bills to record your payables in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) provided by a vendor. You can add it to the Items tab if it’s anything that your company buys and sells. Just make sure to put a checkmark in the Billable column to track this as a billable expense.
Here’s how to enter bills:
- Go to the Vendors menu and select Enter bills.
- Choose the vendor from the drop-down menu.
- Click the Items tab and provide all the necessary information.
- Enter the amount and the correct expense account.
- Add a checkmark in the Billable column to track the billable expense.
- Click on Save & Close once you’re done.
You can check these articles for more information on how to create an estimate and how to enter bills. Here’s also a guide on how to pay bills in QuickBooks Desktop.
From here, you can run a job costing reports to see how your business is doing. You can access various job reports by going to the Reports menu and selecting Jobs, Time, & Mileage. See this article for detailed guidance: Tracking job costs in QuickBooks Desktop.
I'm always here if you need further help or you still have questions about your transactions, and or anything else. Take care and have a great rest of the day!
