QuickBooks® Enterprise does a better job to help you prevent fraud from occurring in your business. Honest employees can become dishonest when they see large bank account balances or assets that are not being guarded. If they can’t see these amounts, then your risk is greatly reduced. That is where user access permissions play a role. Segregating duties – where collusion would have to take place before fraud can occur- is also key and where QuickBooks® Enterprise can help you. For example- The employee entering bills should not be allowed to set up new vendors. This employee could create a fictitious vendor name with his/her address and enter fictitious bills for payment. An employee applying customer payment should not also be permitted to enter credit memos, doing so could allow an employee to divert collectible funds into personal accounts. And setting the sales preference to require QuickBooks® Enterprise to save the transaction when printing will ensure that the always-on Audit trail track changes made to that transaction which produces an Audit trail report and a Voided/Deleted transaction report. Be sure you assign a different employee to review these reports periodically for questionable transactions. In addition, to restrictions, there is a closing date password that should be set each month after bank reconciliations are completed which prevents changes to transactions. And finally, there is the credit card protection feature – even if you do not use the Intuit merchant services account, turning on this feature requires users to have a complex password that must be changed every 90 days.

Customizable Fields – include up to 15 custom fields with QuickBooks® Enterprise on Items (Pro/Premier limited to 5) Plus in QuickBooks® Enterprise you can assign what type of information can be entered into these fields (date, alpha, numeric, # decimals – etc) or provide a drop-down menu for the employee to select from. Now when you run reports filtered on these fields you can get consistent results since employees cannot find creative ways of individualizing how they complete these fields. For example, on items you may want to track Bin number, the serial number sold, color/size, date ordered, required date, picked by, completed by, inspected by and so on. In addition, you can make these fields a “required field” on lists or transactions. Customization of fields is possible for customers, vendors, and employees as well. The same customization options apply but in QuickBooks® Enterprise you can have a total of 30 name custom fields with a maximum of 12 for any name list (customer, vendor, employee). In Pro/Premier, the maximum is 7 custom fields per names list.

Enhanced Inventory receiving – The item receipt and the bill are now 2 different transactions. An itemized receipt will increase inventory as of the received date but not increase A/P instead it will increase a clearing account, the bill will increase A/P based on the date you enter the bill, which will NOT change your inventory values, instead it will post to the clearing account. So after posting 1 item receipt and its related bill, the clearing account will be zero. But any future changes to that item receipt or bill which is also not done to the related bill or item receipt will cause that clearing account to no longer be zero. So strict controls should be implemented to avoid this problem. This feature is optional and will cure the problems previously incurred due to negative inventory counts or changes to when inventory quantities post. However, this change is a global change and is irreversible. You should test this change on a copy of your data file to see the impact on your financials before implementing this change. This feature may cause conflicts with third-party software you are currently using. Definitely a must-have for NEW QuickBooks files and a TO BE CAREFULLY RESEARCHED with an existing QuickBooks® file.
