Physical Inventory - QB Desktop Enterprise Edition

We are in the process of completing a physical inventory and the enterprise edition is not specific as to how to reconcile the counts to complete the physical inventory.

We currently utilize the QB Desktop Enterprise solution for Manufacturing & Wholesale.

Our inventory is very large so manual entry one item at a time would not be an option.

Physical Inventory - QB Desktop Enterprise Edition

 I can share some information that can help you with completing your physical inventory, @JZ63

 

You can use the Add/Edit Multiple List Entries window tp copy the data from an Excel file and paste them in QuickBooks to update your inventories. 

 

Here are the steps to follow:

 

  1. Go to the List menu and select Add/Edit Multiple List Entries.
  2. Click the dropdown list for List and select Inventory Parts.
  3. Copy your data from Excel and paste them in the screen.
  4. Select Save Changes.

 

You can also use this feature to update multiple customers, vendors, and other items in the program. Check out this article for more information: Add and Edit Multiple Customers, Vendors, and Items.

Physical Inventory - QB Desktop Enterprise Edition

I find it hard to believe that the Enterprise Solutions for Manufacturing & Wholesale 23.0 with the Advanced Inventory module does not have an actual physical inventory reconciliation.  We have approximately 2700 to 2800 active items and a reconciliation thru the item list does not seem like a very productive method, in addition, it also does not generate any audit records.

Hello there, @JZ63.

 

I can see how much this feature is a must in QuickBooks Desktop since it streamlines your physical inventory reconciliation. Please know that we value our customer's experience while using our product. To make this possible, I recommend sending a feature request to our product engineering team so they can consider adding this functionality to the upcoming updates. To do so, here's how:

 

  1. Go to Help. 
  2. Select Send Feedback Online, then Product Suggestion.
  3. The QuickBooks Feedback window will appear.
  4. From there on, write your product suggestion in the field provided.
  5. Hit Send Feedback and Close Window to exit.
