     search to  QuickBooks.  Not to worry,  will only retrieve what your employees have permission to see. In
     addition, set up a Google AdWords account within QuickBooks and receive a $50 credit from Google to try out
     this form of advertising.  What is  AdWords? Go to www.Google.com  and do a search on QuickBooks. Those

     reduce the soda inventory by 6.  Caution: Pricing for the six is based on the single can of soda pricing.

• Always on audit trail that does not slow down performance!

• Improved window for "enter bills".  See the vendors address that will print on the bill payment checks.
• Improved communication between the item record cost field and the replacement cost purchased on checks, credit card charges, bills and POs.  Now you have the option to update the cost in the inventory or service item when creating a new purchase transaction. Now you can base change item prices on unit cost.  This is a choice to change cost of an item in the item record (via a pop-up window) at the time the purchase transaction is entered. You can elect NOT to display the pop-up message via a checkbox, but whatever choice you make on that transaction (to update the item record with the new cost or NOT) QuickBooks will use that as the default behavior.  Its a good idea to discuss this new feature with all data entry personnel. You can reverse this decision by selecting "bring back all one time messages" option under preferences (general).   If the item is a component in an assembly, the bill of materials average cost will change when the assembly item is built
• Customized pricing and rounding options make it easier to keep your pricing competitive
• Inventory - Includes a new field for manufacturers part number. Search and sort by your part number or the vendors.
• Finally - QuickBooks now posts reconciliation differences to a new account called reconciliation differences- a P&L account (sure sounds immaterial but a true time saver for your accountant!)

  • Backordered column has been added to the sales order to indicate fulfilled and still open quantities. Invoice has a new backordered column and picking lists can now be printed. Packing lists now show backordered items.  If you are a nonprofit and need to track backorders, consider purchasing the accountant's edition.

  
   

  • Backorder functionality on purchase orders as well. POs will display a column for previously received and a separate backorder column
  • Sales order fulfillment worksheet (window) shows all open orders  based on criteria important to you such as oldest orders,  shippable dollar amount, or by customer.  Customize whether you want to allow partial shipments or only complete orders.
