every time i try to merge 2 stock items it says one cannot in QBO
Hello there. QuickBooks Online (QBO) software only allows you to merge services and non-inventory items. Let me fill you in with details regarding this topic.
In QBO, inventory items influence inventory or asset accounts and track Quantity on Hand. These are necessitating for precise data management, therefore making merging impossible. If you find duplicate items that are not in use, it is advisable to make them inactive. To do so, follow the steps below:
1. Log into your QBO account.
2. Go to Sales, then choose Products and Services.
3. Look for the product or service that you want to make inactive.
4. From the Action column, click the drop-down menu and select Make inactive.
5. Click Yes.
Your suggestion to merge two inventory items is appreciated. I'll take note of this. Please know that our developers are diligently working and exploring additional functionalities to incorporate into the software, enabling the product to meet your business needs.
Besides services and non-inventory items, you can also merge duplicate accounts, customers, and vendors in QuickBooks Online.
