Here’s more information about what is in the Spring update. For full details, see Intuit Enterprise Suite Spring release notes

Multi-entity accounting and financial management


Finance teams at multi-entity businesses often spend many hours each month manually managing inter-company journal entries, costing firms time and impeding growth. Intuit Enterprise Suite delivers automated and streamlined finances for valuable insights to help scale multi-entity businesses.


Multi-entity allocations and default mapping

Use Intuit Enterprise Suite for intercompany allocations to multiple entities directly from your bank feed, expense forms, or bills, instead of  creating an intercompany journal entry for each intercompany transaction.  Enter percentage amounts to allocate to each line of business in the allocation form, and the Suite handles the correct accounting based on your default account mapping.


Your accounting team can set default mapping during the initial setup process, as a precursor to performing allocations. Then they can select which accounts should be included in intercompany transactions that happen between each entity. This ensures intercompany allocations always hit the right debit and credit accounts, removing the need to manually select accounts each time.

New multi-entity hub and enhanced reporting

The multi-entity hub is a new way to easily monitor KPIs for sales, expenses, profit and loss, accounts receivable (AR), and accounts payable (AP) across entities at a glance. 


With enhanced reporting, you can choose which entities to include, scroll through multiple entities side-by-side, or filter by time period.


Intuit Enterprise Suite customers are saying

"Because we can switch between companies and run consolidated reports, it allows us to standardize and make things uniform. As opposed to managing several environments, we're just managing one environment."

- Jason Corby, CFO and Owner, HFMM Legacy Group


Dimensions and business intelligence


Forecast Reports

Finance teams lose time and productivity when manually comparing forecasts versus actual performance. Take advantage of two new reports designed to help manage performance versus forecast—without having to export to spreadsheets. 


Forecast vs. Actuals: This new report provides a side-by-side comparison between actual performance and forecasted targets, detailing both monetary ($) and percentage (%) variances.* 

Forecast Overview: The enhanced forecast report supports filter and grouping functionalities, enabling users to segment and analyze deeper data insights tailored to their needs.


*monetary value variance = numeric difference between actual vs forecast

*percentage variance = percentage difference between actual vs forecast

Dimensional P&L Forecast

You can also break down a profit and loss forecast into dimensions that are important to your business, like department, region, fund, or product line. You can apply rules to specific dimensions and classes in your forecast to reflect your business goals, including income, expenses, cost of goods sold (COGS), and expense accounting. You can then convert your dimensional forecast into a budget, or export it as an Excel spreadsheet or PDF.


Intuit Enterprise Suite customers are saying

"The use of dimensions allows us to really bifurcate our reporting between location and type of activity. Prior to that, it was basically exporting to Excel and doing pivot tables and coming up with the best reporting that we could do."

- Chris Harris, Controller, Brightline Painting


Industry-specific customizations


Project budgets

Companies that rely on complex spreadsheets to track project budgets at a granular level, like construction companies, often maintain two versions of the same budget. One version that tracks every detail—and another higher-level budget within the accounting software. Tracking these budgets in two places takes time and often results in inaccuracies. 


Intuit Enterprise Suite users can now track detailed costs like labor, materials, equipment, and subcontracts in one place. This lets you understand the costs from estimate to final invoicing using highly customizable and flexible project-level budgets.


Save time, minimize errors, and track project data from one connected system to get real-time insights into the health of projects.




AI import for project budgets


Use AI to help accurately import an existing project-specific budget from a spreadsheet to Intuit Enterprise Suite. During the import, AI suggestions will help correct potential inaccuracies.


Once imported, execs and accountants can understand the overall costs of a project from estimate to final invoicing. Construction and other project-based companies can manage the entire budget process in Intuit Enterprise Suite, saving time and reducing manual data entry errors. AI technology will automatically address any duplications or mismatches that happen when mapping the spreadsheet data to the Intuit Enterprise Suite format*.

Project task templates:  Use pre-set templates within ‘My Templates’ library or create custom templates. These templates can include individual tasks, or be grouped together under various milestones. You can also clone an existing project (with tasks) and create a template that can be used for new projects.



Cost code templates: Track progress of budgeted cost against actuals with reports tied to project cost codes. A construction project-based business can access 10 cost code templates in Intuit Enterprise Suite that align to the most-used construction industry divisions, like electrical, mechanical, and masonry. 



With this increased customization and granularity, you can make informed, proactive decisions by reporting across cost codes and monitoring costs in real-time to identify issues or deviations from your budget.



Third-party integration enhancements via API

The HouzzPro API integration enhancement expands custom field maximization from 3 to 12.  This enables detailed reporting on more custom data points like PO number, sales rep, bill, or location. Drive more business insights by accessing, analyzing, and filtering HouzzPro data through additional custom fields.



Intuit Enterprise Suite customers are saying

"I've seen our people just come alive with ownership of understanding all the financial information like for the first time ever. And they felt very empowered in decision-making. There's just this unified spirit, I think around conversations. It's really been amazing to see it work and to work so quickly."

- Elaine Savell, Controller, Give Clean


Project profitability


See project profitability data in a visual chart on the project details tab, including the forecasted profit margin throughout the timeline of a project. Project data will be automatically consolidated. Receive AI suggestions to help improve project profitability across expenses, invoices, bills, payroll, committed costs, and hourly costs. 




Some examples of insights users can receive are:


  • How much you are over budget for a specific project, and if your total actual costs and estimated costs are aligned
  • If a certain contractor or vendor has increased costs versus current or historical projects
  • How much unbilled time is remaining for specific projects
  • If supplier bills are higher than purchase order amounts
