Inventory management solutions for QuickBooks Enterprise 20

My name is Jenni.  I have used QuickBooks Desktop for our company for close to 20 years.  We are a beverage manufacturing company and we manufacture tea, lemonade, and other concentrated drinks.  I have struggled with getting the advanced inventory setup in QuickBooks Enterprise with advanced inventory.  My current version is 20.  I have looked in to Fishbowl as a solution but wanted to see if anyone had any other recommendations or experience with Fishbowl ans Quickbooks.  Inventory is in excel currently. Thank You, Jenni

Thank you for posting here in the Community, @jennihobson.

 

Let me share some insights about advanced inventory in QuickBooks Enterprise.

 

Inventory tracking is an important part of your business if you purchase items to resell to others, you can track inventory stored at different sites or locations. With advanced inventory feature, you can be one step ahead and integrate all your inventories at once.

 

To set up this feature, you need to turn on the advanced inventory by following the steps below.

 

  1. Go to the Edit tab.
  2. Select Preferences.
  3. Click Items & Inventory, then select the Company Preferences tab.
  4. Put a checkmark on the Inventory and purchase orders are active.
  5. Then, click OK.

 

Please know that you also need to sync license data online so that QuickBooks will recognize it. To do that, you can follow this article. Turn on advanced inventory.

 

Once done, you can now set up an inventory site. This setup will tell QuickBooks where you track inventory. 

 

Here’s how. 

 

  1. From the Lists menu, select Inventory Site List.
  2. Select the Site button, then New.
  3. Enter the appropriate information.
  4. Repeat Steps 1 to 3 until all your sites are set up.

 

When you have completed this step, you may use this article to proceed with steps 2, 3, and 4 for more detailed information. Set up Advanced Inventory.

 

If you wanted to change automatically the price of an item on sales forms according to rules you created or offer a quantity discounts, you can do that with the new subscription-based Advanced Pricing in QuickBooks Enterprise.

 

If you need further assistance with the advanced inventory, please leave your comment below. I’ll be here to help. Take care!
