SKU field

I’ve gone thru the products and settings and turned on the SKU so it showed up on my invoices. I’ve also input SKUs for my products but when I make a invoice it will not let me select the SKU field. All other fields are active. Anyone know how I can make this useable? Thank you

I'll ensure that you can use the SKU feature in your invoices as soon as possible, @mayhem605.

 

I appreciate all the steps you've taken so far about the SKU feature in QuickBooks. Allow me to explain how this feature works and how to use it in your account. This way, I can guide you accordingly. 

 

If you're referring to the QuickBooks Online interface, the SKU number will auto-populate in your invoices when selecting an item. We're unable to choose the specific SKU number in that field. Just make sure to add this information to the Product and Services page before selecting the item in your sales forms. 

 

See the sample screenshots below for your reference: 

 

If the issue persists, you have an option to add an SKU custom field to your account. For the step-by-step instructions, check out this article: How to add custom fields to sales forms and purchase orders.

 

If you're referring to anything else, could you attach a screenshot of your invoices with the SKU column? This way, I can provide an exact explanation and resolution to fix the issue.

That makes sense. I was wanting to use a  barcode scanner for the SKU field to add parts to my invoices. All the fields are accessible except the SKU field. Wish I could do it that way. 

for some reason it will not let me upload a pick off my iPad

Allow me to share some information regarding using SKU and PICK feature in QuickBooks Point of Sale, mayhem605.

 

If you're trying to use the Quick Pick feature in QuickBooks Point of Sale, you'll need to disable SKU or barcode option.

Hi!

 

Did you manage to solve that problem? I'm also dealing with the same issue.

 

Just bought a label app from QBs app store, and just realized it is useless "reading" barcodes it with my scanner without the SKU search enabled.

Hello there, Carla R.

 

As my colleague shared above, we're unable to search on the SKU field since it is entered automatically.

 

If you want to modify the SKU number, you can go the product's profile and change it from there.

 

If you're trying to use the Quick Pick feature in QuickBooks Point of Sale, you'll need to disable SKU or barcode option.
