Being able to add markup is essential for a business owner. For many reasons. It's needed on the online version of quickbooks.
Markup for a business owner is what determines if we're even going to be in business. Quickbooks Online needs to be able to add markup in estimates, invoices, products and services, etc. For a small business owner just starting out, $200.00 dollars a month for Quickbooks Contractor Edition to have that option is a dream at the present time. Quickbooks Online is definitely great but needs markup options and to be able to add markup columns.

As a small business owner, I can’t stress enough how crucial markup options are in QuickBooks Online. Without the ability to add markup in estimates and invoices, it really impacts our bottom line. The monthly cost for QuickBooks Contractor Edition feels steep for what it offers, especially when all I need is some basic markup functionality. It’s frustrating because while QuickBooks has great features, this is a significant gap. On another note, having a reliable system for handling calls is essential too. I recently found a resource on phone menus https://www.mightycall.com/blog/phone-menus/ that might help streamline communication for small businesses like mine.

Go to the gear button on the top right hand corner of the screen, then go to to "Account and Settings", then, "Expenses" and click on "Bills and expenses". There, you'll see a box next to "Markup with a default rate of _%". You can input any markup percentage you want in that blank box, and check that box for markups tied to expenses. Note that this option is only visible AFTER you click on the "Bills and expenses" option. Good luck!
