Can I use the barcode scanner in Quickbooks Online?

I see the importance of using a barcode scanner with QuickBooks Online (QBO). I'll guide you to where you can send your request, Milena.

 

One of the advantages of a barcode scanner is that it's fast and provides accurate data, reducing paperwork and chances of errors. You may want to consider using a third-party application to help you use scanners in QBO. 

 

You'll want to send feedback to let our product team know how this feature helps your business. To do so, I've outlined the steps to show you how:

 

  1. Select the Gear icon at the top, then Feedback.
  2. Enter your comments or product suggestions. Then select Next to submit feedback.

 

Your valuable request goes to our Product Development team to help improve your experience in QBO. You can also track feature requests through the QuickBooks Online Feature Requests website.

 

To learn more about what other QuickBooks products you can with a barcode scanner, check out this available resource for more details. Please know that the article is in the US version, but it works the same way with other regions: Set Up And Use Barcode Scanning In QuickBooks Desktop.

 

Beyond that, you can track what's on hand and get alerts when it's time to restock and see insights. I've added this article for reference: Set Up And Track Your Inventory In QuickBooks Online.

 

If you have more something to ask, please let me know by adding a new post below. Have a nice day!
