Quick Books import/utilities

I'll help you with getting access to the Utilities tab in QuickBooks Desktop Point of Sale (POS), @WMPCS.

To get started, I recommend closing your POS, then open the file again to refresh QuickBooks. After that, sign in to POS as an admin, then update QuickBooks to install the latest updates and fix common errors. 

Here's how:

1. Go to the Help menu and hover over Software Update.
2. Tap on Check for updates. If QuickBooks finds an update, you'll see it as an option.
3. When you're ready, select Update now and then OK.

Once done, go back to the File menu to access the Utilities tab.

I have updated my software to the current version available but still no luck. Any other ideas/things that I could try?

I appreciate you upgrading the QuickBooks Point of Sale (POS) to the current version, WMPCS.

After upgrading the software, you need to restart the computer for changes to take effect.

Once back, make sure that you access the file as the master admin. If not,, you can consider contacting the admin of the account so they can check the level of your access.

If you're the master admin, you can clean install the POS to retrieve the Utility function. Please follow steps 1 to 4 through this article: Clean reinstall QuickBooks Point of Sale.

If the same issue persists, you need to repair the software. Check out this article for complete instructions and a quick tutorial: Repair QuickBooks Desktop Point of Sale.

If you're getting the same results, I recommend contacting our QuickBooks POS Team. They can create a case to isolate the issue.
