Buy nowWe have set up a class list for reporting purposes. My question is am I able to set a preference or rule that REQUIRES the class field to selected by the user on invoices and sales orders? Classes work well for reporting purposes but if staff skip this step it takes hours of work going back and assigning the class when we pull reports.
Note: We are on Quickbooks Desktop Enterprise.
Good morning, @WanderJax.
I appreciate you stopping by the Community!
I can see how beneficial this could be for you. However, there isn't a way to make the Class field a required step to save or move forward on invoices or sales orders.
I'll send your feedback over to our Product Developers so they can consider this in the near future. As a future reference, check out this guide below:

You can't require a class, but you can nag them every time they skip the field. And tell them not to ignore the nag! Then no one can say they "forgot".
To do this, set a preference. Start in QB on the menu at Edit | Preferences | Accounting | Company Preferences. Then in the Class box, enable the option Prompt to assign classes.
