I signed up for QBO Simple Start to find that I can't assign an expense to one of my 8 rental properties.

Online instructions were to go to settings, expenses, and enable billing. QBO Simple Start package requires that I upgrade to next package.  This is fundamental to any business (i.e. assign expense to something) so it appears QBO Simple Start is a bait just to force you to upgrade.  Any way to get around what I need to do and still be usable by my CPA who uses QB.
