Can I create a cost centre on the expense side for a specific client?

Pleased to have you here in the Community, @belinde1.

 

I'm here to help share some insights on how you can create a center for the expenses of a specific client in QuickBooks Online. Let's do this.

 

At this time, being able to create a cost center for a specific client's expenses isn't an option for us. But, you can use the class tracking feature as an alternative. This way, you'll be able to categorize the expenses.

 

Before you can set up and assign different classes to your clients, you'll need to turn on this feature in your QuickBooks Online Account. Please know that this feature is only available in QuickBooks Online Plus.

 

To turn it on:

  1. Click on the Gear icon on the Toolbar.
  2. Choose Account and Settings.
  3. Select Advanced.
  4. Tick on Categories.
  5. Put a check-mark on Track classes to turn on class tracking. 
  6. Select Save and then Done.

Right after, you can now set up the classes and locations:

  1. Go to the Gear icon ⚙️ at the top.
  2. Click on All Lists.
  3. Select Classes
  4. Click on New.
  5. Add the name of the class.
  6. Select Save.

Here are some great articles that you can check out for complete details including tutorials about this procedure:

Also, I'd like you to know that QuickBooks is constantly working to develop the product and make it work the way your business needs. That being said, you may visit our QuickBooks Blog to stay updated about our latest news and innovations. 

 

Lastly, if there's anything else you need about this concern, please let me know. I'm just a reply away and I'd be happy to help. Have a great week ahead!
