great tutorial on how to use QBO, purposed served. yet folks in the comments are asking Bookkeeping/Accounting questions...that is a different video. Just because you learned the software does not mean you have learned accounting/bookkeeping and vice verca. great video!

Thank you for being the hero we didn’t know we needed! This will definitely help out in the career. A couple of questions; What are the differences between buying the course that cost hundreds of dollars and watching this tutorial online? Are they marginal or significant and when would you recommend actually taking the course if need be?

[@SimonSezIT]

Good question! The paid QuickBooks Online course covers more topics and is 1.5hrs longer. You can see the additional topics covered here: bit.ly/3iSuum3. Don't worry, this will not automatically sign you up. Signing up to Simon Sez IT gives you access not only to the full QuickBooks course but also to 100+ other training courses available on our site, and Platinum members can even download courses to keep forever. You also get a Certificate for each course you complete.

[@vickie6662]

Thank you so much. I've just started using qbo. I'm helping a relative whose set up qbo himself. I'm unfamiliar with it, I had used QB desktop years ago. But this is different. I attempted to reconcile 2 accounts for him. He'd downloaded bank statements. My impression was if the info came in from bank it was cleared. I had bank rec completed on each account. Then realized every transaction had not cleared. Now they're All under uncleared. Is there a way I can undo bank recs? Or have I no option but delete accounts and reload each account as new?

[@drewmurphy2796]

As someone who has experience with both online and desktop, do you still recommend the desktop version over the online?

[@chytealthedeal]

Thank you. I understand that my QBO is free until I start to keep books for a client (which I plan to do soon). So when you say that you can have as many company files as you like, does that mean I can keep the books of both of my small companies for free? Right now I am able to do the books of one of my companies but it would be nice to add my other for free.

How do I create an item profitability report for a contractor that has set up items for course codes like electrical, plumbing and so forth

[@rbkylebacabis6684]

I was a bit confused about the negative balance of the equity balance when you entered the notes payable. Isn't a credit to notes payable paired with a debit to either cash or the vehicle ? That should have never made the equity balance negative unless the debit paired is an actual expense which i think is not the case in that scenario. Im confused

[@businesssystemsconsultants6651]

Why are some the invoices on the AR side of QBO not showing up when we match them on the Banking side. I have to delete them each time and retype them and then show up after I retype them all..... Very redundant.

Hi, when I am setting up the accounts in Chart Of Accounts, and I click on 'New', I don't see 'Bank' listed in the 'Account Type' dropdown menu. Have they changed this since this tutorial was made? I'm using QuickBooks Simple Start. Also, it seems that 'Long-Term Liabilities' has now changed to 'Non-Current Liabilities'. I wish they would stop changing everything so often.

[@SimonSezIT]

They may have Neil, are you definitely using QuickBooks Online? Not the Desktop version?

Quick question: If the customer made an overpayment and decides to have it applied on a future invoice, how do you record it and how do you apply it once the "future" invoice is already created?

[@peachm6705]

Julius, for QB desktop, open the new invoice and then click on "Apply Credits" to apply the overpayment of the previous invoice to the new invoice. For QB Online, when you open the new invoice and click on "receive payment", you can see the credit (the overpayment) on the bottom and you can offset that against the invoice.

Amazing training video! You are such a great trainer! One comment - around the 2:12:39 timepoint in the video, you are showing us a payment of $179.00 as a partial payment to an invoice. However, when you save and close, you say "lets go see if the amount shows as paid" and then you are referencing a payment of $175.00 shown as paid, but right above that row is a $179 payment that says "closed". Is this an error in the training or am I confused??

[@danwilson1712]

Terrific content! A question I have is this: if buying an existing business from someone else who uses the desktop version, is it possible to export their data into my QB online account (assuming permission). Thank you.

[@peachm6705]

Dan, yes QB deskop data can be migrated to QB Online. Any seasoned bookkeeper who is familiar with both online and desktop versions can easily do this task.

[@doreenspillman7890]

Somewhat of a FAIL on the DISCOUNT (at 1:55:00) as 10% discount would not be just 18cents. That isn't even 1%. It is, in fact, just 0.1% i.e. zero point one percent. Apart from that all good. (Note for any Australians viewing this: Our TAX is GST, which is a GOODS and SERVICES TAX. Therefore, as the name implies, there is tax on both physical goods and the services provided. Applying the GST applies to your business ONLY if you are required to be registered for GST, or have elected to be registered for GST. In most cases this applies to businesses with a turnover of $75,000 or more, a notable exception being UBER Drivers, who ALL have to be registered for GST, regardless of income level.)

Amazing tutorial. Have been using QB for at least 3 yrs and was not aware of so many tools available.

I have it as sales income and then Reported as an office expense. I know I'm doing it wrong. Would you be able to show me how to documented correctly.

The $800 should not form part of sales revenue if it is not part of the normal income generating activity for your business.

is there a video explaining Downloading your bank information and then uploading them into Online QB, do you have to click on "ADD" or "Transfer" BEFORE ANY DATA is searchable?

[@peachm6705]

Rick, if your bank account is not linked to QB Online, the best way to record your bank transactions is to manually upload the bank statement. This means, you have to log in to your bank, download the transactions in CSV (excel) format and then upload the transactions in bulk to QB Online. Once uploaded, you can see the bank feeds and you have to clear them them by indicating the correct categories or expense accounts.

[@noushagh8614]

Peach M After you upload the bank transactions what do you do? Some of the accounts appear with a match and some dont. Do we move them recognized colum or just leave them there. I am confused no one is talking about what to do with the transactions after downloading them. Plz help

[@peachm6705]

Bethany, your client has to subscribe to QB Online Plus because the class tracking feature is not available in QB Essentials. With the class feature, you can track income and expenses by location.

[@Ddstairclimber]

question when you talk about products an services do you have to add them twice as in QuickBooks desktop once as inventory items and the again in the chart of accounts?

[@peachm6705]

Products and services are only added or set up once. While setting it up, you are required to specify the income account and the Cost of Goods Sold account and these accounts should be found in your Chart of Accounts.

if you receive a payment by square(credit card) and square deducts the fee at the time of receiving the funds, how do you record the fee within the deposit? thanks

[@peachmagallano1296]

Carolee, you record the gross amount paid and then on the next line add the merchant fees account which is a deducted from the gross amount.

[@lindsaygilreath7268]

Why do you have to record deposits when the checking account is already linked in QB? Does it not automatically record deposits? I am new to QB and it's so confusing right now.

[@peachmagallano1296]

When a bank account is synced to Quickbooks, the transactions will appear in the bank feeds. And then, when you post a transaction from the bank feeds window, some of these transactions have to be matched to an existing entry . In this case, a credit in the bank account that shows in the bank feeds will be matched to a deposit entry.

[@sidbreman1940]

Math error in invoice discount. Entry should have been 10% not 0.10. Ten percent discount would be $18, not $0.18.

[@hassanmaje5849]

@@peachm6705 Ok, so one can go as far back as necessary depending on how much data one wants to take on from the previous system into QBO. I suppose then there is no area in QBO where one has to specify the start up date during initialisation because such concept then does not exist in QBO. Thanks.
