How Can I follow the products in our store/warehouse with serial numbers? Please explain to me how can I do it?

Good to see you here, financeusa.

 

For QuickBooks Online,  you can enter the serial numbers into the inventory item name, sales description, or SKU. Let me show you how: 

  1. Log in to QuickBooks Online
  2. From the left menu, select Sales and click Product and Services.
  3. At the upper-right, select New.
  4. Click the product type.
  5. You can enter the serial number after the item Name, SKU, or Description field
  6. Enter the rest of the information and then click Save and close

If you use the SKU field, you can add a column that shows this information when you enter a sales transaction and customize sales detailed reports. Here's how:

  1. Go to the Gear icon at the upper-right and click Account and Settings.
  2. From the left menu, click Sale.
  3. Select the Product and services section and check the Show SKU column box.
  4. Click Save and then Done.

You can use this reference that will help you track your inventory items within QuickBooks Online.

 

In addition, our QuickBooks Desktop version has the Advanced Inventory feature which can track store inventory at different warehouses, in multiple trucks, in different areas within a warehouse, at consignment locations, or at outside manufacturers. 


I'm just around the corner to help you if you need anything else. You take care always and stay safe!

@financeusa 

Should you need more features, consider having an inventory management app to integrate with your QBO.

So no , I'm ok for now whit your answer.

But I have another one:

We have company in Canada and in USA as well (the owners are the same) but different CEO and different business.

 

We plane to buy the Desktop version and as far as I know the account able to use for 2 different companies. Is this correct ? Can I use the same account for two different company for two different settings and two different user set up ?

You may have 3 options:

1. Purchase a single license of QBD US version for your 2 offices

2. Purchase a single license of QBD CA version for your 2 offices

3. But I would recommend, using QBD US version for US office and QBD CA version for CA office. You may purchase both licenses with a one time license.
