Let me provide you some information about symbols that you can use in QuickBooks, kevincp89.
QuickBooks Online has a list of accepted characters that you can choose from. Usually, if you provide non-standard or invalid characters, this leads to the server and other errors in the application. That's why we only provide you the basic characters. You'll have to make sure that you only provide the accepted characters when saving any information such as Customers, Vendors, Products and Services, or the Chart of Accounts.
Please check out these accepted lists of characters that you can use. For additional resources, I've provided some of these helpful articles that you can browse.
