Item for applying Commission Paid

My products are sold through various outlets, each with a different rate of commission. Each outlet is invoiced for the items they’ve sold, with the commission due, included for each line item, then sub-totaled. Next line, the total amount of commission due to the sales outlet is deducted. The balance due is payable to my company.

 

In QB  Desktop for MAC 2019 I had an Other Charge Type Item that calculated and applied the amount of Commission paid to each outlet and applied it to a Commission Paid, Cost of Sales Type account.

 

The migration to QB Online Plus changed those items to a different type. Account. 

 

How do I set up an item(s) to accomplish what I’ve been doing since I started with QB  Desktop for MAC 2013. 

 

In anticipation… thanks for your help.

Hi there, Knuk5685.

 

There may be some changes when moving an account from QuickBooks Desktop for Mac to QuickBooks Online Plus as these are two different platforms.

 

To review and know what to expect when transferring data from QBDT Mac to QBO, check out this article: Learn how features and data move from QuickBooks Desktop to QuickBooks Online

I really appreciate your guidance and all the past help offered to make the transition QBD for MAC 2019 to QBO. But even after 6 weeks, every day reveals more incompatibilities. QBO is just. not for my business. The complier used to make the migration from 2019 is inadequate. I now realize there are newer versions of QB Desktop available. I am going to purchase QBD Pro Plus 2022 for MAC. I've checked all the reference material but all the help I need is: Does 2022 provide: 1. inventory, 2. on line banking download/upload function, 3. Is there a trial version I can test and 4. Can I apply the unused portion of my QBO annual subscription to purchase QBD2022? Thanks again...Don

Good afternoon, @Knuk5685

 

Thanks for coming back to this thread. I'd be more than happy to answer some additional questions you may have about QuickBooks Desktop for Mac 2022. 

 

With Mac 2022, you'll be able to track inventory and use online banking. 

 

Moreover, you can use this link to review the trial version to see if this product and upgrade would be best for your business. 

 

As for applying the unused portion of your QBO annual subscription to the purchase of QB Mac 2022, contacting our Customer Support Team would be the best route. They'll be able to confirm if you can do this and make the change if so. 

 

I hope I was able to answer all of you questions. We're always here to lend a helping hand when you need us. Have a splendid weekend!
