Online vs Enterprise desktop

I recently converted from Enterprise 24.0 to Online and have found some glaring issues.  I cannot enter sales orders or invoices as I did in Enterprise or Receive Items and Enter Bills from vendors as I did in Enterprise.

 

I have been told the best thing to do is use a third party app  that will create a similar appearance  to enterprise until the software engineers at Intuit come up with a suitable update.

Not happy abouot this but I really want to utilize online vs. working remotely when I travel.  any recommendations for the best apps?

Thanks

You can use a 3rd party inventory management app with the sales order feature to integrate with QBO. Do you run a retail/wholesale or manufacturing company? Otherwise, host your QB Desktop Enterprise and you can access it via internet. You can purchase it thru select partners and get a perpetual discount on renewals.

Online vs Enterprise desktop

Welcome to the Community, @avd92. Let me share some details about the transactions you want to use in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

 

The Sales Order and the Receive Items transactions aren't available in QBO. On the other hand, you can enter an invoice and bills.

 

Here's how to enter an invoice:

 

  1. Go to the +New icon.
  2. Under CUSTOMER.
  3. Click Invoice.

 

Here's how to enter a bill:

 

  1. Go to the +New icon.
  2. In the VENDOR column.
  3. Click Bill.

 

Furthermore, the inventory quantity will automatically be added after creating a Bill for your Purchase orders.

 

As for the third-party applications, we can't directly recommend you one. You can go to this article: QuickBooks App Store. Then, type keywords for the things you need, like sales orders.

 

Additionally, you can refer to this article to personalize your sales forms: Customize invoices, estimates, and sales receipts in QuickBooks Online.
