Is there way to export a sales order or an invoice

To be clear, I do not need to export a sales order report.  I need to be able to export the sales order itself to an excel file.  

Is this possible, if not is there an app that will add this functionality?

Let me provide clarification about exporting sales orders and invoices into an Excel file, mikehuntsbear.

I can see how exporting specific transactions can benefit your business. However, the option to do so is currently unavailable in QuickBooks Desktop. That said, I recommend sending a product suggestion through the Feedback section. Your feedback directly goes to our product engineers who'll take note of the need for this functionality and consider adding it in future updates.

Here's how to do that:

1. On the top menu, go to Help.
2. Select Send Feedback Online, and then Product Suggestion.
3. Enter your suggestions.
4. Click Send Feedback.

Alternatively, you can consider using a third-party application that can help you with this task. While I can't suggest a specific one, you can check out the available supported apps here: QuickBooks Desktop Apps.

For more information on customer-related transactions, refer to this article: Accounts Receivable workflows.

In case you want to transfer info to and from QuickBooks, you can refer to this helpful guide: Import and export data in QuickBooks Desktop.

I'm just one post away if you have other concerns about exporting in QuickBooks, mikehuntsbear. Feel free to drop a reply below. Keep safe!

Thank you @AnneMariee  for the clear and concise answer. 

I do have another question when you have time.  Is there a way to show live inventory quantity in Qb Desktop?  Currently it shows quantity, and quantity on sales orders.  We use qb mostly for inventory and this is a vital need.  Thanks in advance and if i need to create a new post for this I will.
