I want to setup product categories. Is this possible? We need a cleaner way to setup the products we sell.
If I nest the items, then the Name String gets really long for reporting.
Then forget about using a Zebra Scanner because the warehouse doesnt know what to pull due to the length of the characters.
If it's not available, if I upgrade what version has it? Is there a work around?

Aside from nesting accounts and using barcode scanning, QuickBooks Desktop allows us to create custom fields to capture details. You may also consider adding custom fields to track specific info for the products that you sell.
Here's how:
You can check out our guide on creating and using custom fields in QuickBooks Desktop that I'm sure you'll find helpful.
Please let me know if you have other questions or concerns. I'm always around to help.
What kind of category do you need? You may create Item List, Item Group, Item Fixed Asset, and Item Assembly.
