1. Receiving purchase orders

   A purchase order is created and sent to my vendor. Let's say I order 100 products and my supplier only sends 50 of them because they are out of stock. When I go to receive the items against the purchase order I have to one by one delete each item from the bill that didn't arrive. This is extremely time-consuming and could easily be fixed with a simple checkbox next to each item. If there was a checkbox I could check the items that arrived and uncheck the ones that have not arrived yet. Please put a checkbox on purchase orders so we can select the items that have arrived and turn only those items into a bill leaving the remainder still on purchase order.

2. Allow price rules to work in the new invoice/estimate layout

   Without the price rules working in the new estimate/invoice layout we are having to manually look up prices. I considered this a business-critical need and can imagine that many others are suffering from not having the price rules available.

3. Option to upgrade to the new Estimates/invoice layout

   I spent 2 hours speaking to representatives about this issue. The goal is to send an estimate, have the customer accept the estimate online, and have a deposit requested automatically.
   The OLD invoice layout does not allow this. The new one does. There is no way to upgrade from the old one to the new one. The representative suggested i create a new QBO account, which I did, and it had the new layout. Then i would need to backup all of my data from the old account and move it over manually. Its crazy to request that from a customer, when there could just be an option to use the new template. On top of that, the NEW account i made, reverted back to the old template after creating a few estimates so it ended up being a useless venture. PLEASE let me upgrade to the new template!

4. Unable to Add Users with existing email link, preventing user setup in QBOnline

   When setting up a new user in QBOnline, the email link provided is much too long to use and even when all firewalls and security protections are removed, we get "proofpoint" error messages. In turn we are now down until we can get our users into the system, as we cannot operate without them.

6. Emailing Invoices templates

   Hey Guys, there’s a couple of improvements I’d like to suggest:

   1) When constructing the emails to send off the invoices, sometimes the typing gets lost under the keyboard and it becomes very hard to see what you’re typing until you click off the keyboard. And maybe be able to set up our own templates.

   2) I’ve had a number of clients now struggling to find the main invoice (maybe the click to view PDF, isn’t big/clear enough).

   3) Have an option to create quotes using existing items previously used in invoices

   Thanks for reading, hopefully these might get rectified. I’m otherwise finding the app really useful

7. Forward via email both Invoice (bills) and invoice credits to QBO

   I frequently forward emails containing Invoices (bills) in PDF format to: myfakeaccount@qbodocs.com. QBO does a fairly decent job of adding the bill to my account, but fails miserably when sent a Credit Invoice. Since the word CREDIT is prominently displayed where INVOICE is usually found I would think it a fairly easy transition to ad a credit to my vendor account, but NO I must delete the bill it has created and hand add a Credit invoice.

   I thought I read that QBO is using A.I. yet it doesn't seem to learn which GL accounts should be suggested for a specific vendor and some vendors send bills what need to be split to different GL accounts. Is there a keyword that I could put in the description that might help with this?

9. Popup notification of payroll ToDo

   When customers are using QBO and Payroll with Auto Pay/File turned on, there are occasional account or system issues that prevent the auto pay/file from happening causing a ToDo item to be pushed to the customer for action.
   Problems arise with this process when customers are using a small screens to access their account, these important items may not be seen at first glance without scrolling down the page.
   It would be very useful for QBOP users that are not dedicated accounting or payroll personnel who only access their account occasionally if this ToDo item produced a popup box that would grab the users attention. Also, considering that some users may not like this, it would be good to have the popup feature to also have a toggle feature to turn it on or off as needed (with default being on) and the option be easily accessible directly from the popup.

10. The never ending cascade of problems

    I have used QB Online for years, but I have had to migrate 2 business in the last few years from desktop to online. I CANNOT BELIEVE THE CONSTANT CASCADE OF NEW PROBLEMS WITH FEATURES THAT ARE FOUNDATIONAL. Today I went to prepare my quarterly tax payments and prepare W2's. Problem - some of my tax payments don't show up, like WA State Workmens Comp and my 4th quarter 941 filing and the accompanying Schedule B, and I can't print out the worksheets for any of the payments that do show up. The W2's are no where to be found.
    Couple this with items like:
    1. Having to manually switch the mapping of payroll and tax payments when my client wants payroll to come out of one checking account and tax payments to come out of a different checking account. I used to just use the pull down menu for which account to use. This hasn't worked in years.
    2. Not being able to change an employees address from a street address to a P.O. Box without calling support to have them make the change, adding an hour onto a task that should take 5 seconds. The support person I talked to had never heard of a P.O. Box. The support person on the forum's solutions was "No problem, just call us to make that change!" How about you just fix the problem?
    3. New tax rates not being available in the new year, even though these are available 3 months prior to the turn of the year, and it's time to run payroll, but the new rates aren't available to select,

    All this adds up to a huge BLLLLLLAAAAAAAAARRRRGGGGHHHH!!!!!

13. Reduce spam on this forum

    I notice there are many spam posts on this forum which are a waste of my time and make searching for relevant information more difficult.

    My suggestion is to add an additional button on each post to alert the proper Intuit personnel to the possibility of spam, which then they can delete if necessary.

14. Wordle simple word puzzle game

    Wordle simple word puzzle game
    The Wordle game is a free browser game that can be accessed on both desktop and mobile devices. The puzzle game requires players to find the correct word once per day with only six guesses. Each time, they will gradually infer the correct word based on previous trial and error.
    The Wordle game, developed by programmer Josh Wardle in New York, will be available on the App Store and web browser for free starting in October 2021. The game got off to a humble start with 90 players per day. In November, this number increased to 300,000. However, as of this week, the game had recorded more than two million participants.
    Wordle's gameplay can be said to be extremely easy to understand. A player will have six attempts to correctly guess a 5-letter word. With each guess, the squares will change color to indicate whether the player has found the correct letter and whether it matches the position of the correct word.
    If the cell of a letter turns green, the letter is both correct and in place. If it turns orange, the letter appears in the correct word but in the wrong place. If the cell remains gray, the letter is completely incorrect.
    After making all six guesses, the day's turn is over. Wordle only gives players 1 word per day, and that word is the same for all players globally.
    Some of the favorite wordle games right now are lewdle, dordle, and sometimes wordle

15. Keep Location Names Visible in Vendor Hub

    In the vendor area, when the account category is posted to only one account the Location name is visible as ' Oak Lawn' or 'Elmhurst' in the vendor. However, whenever I have more than one account category entered for that particular vendor, the location name turns into 'Split' in the vendor hub even though I never split the account to multiple location. Could you please keep the Location visible despite the number of account category used in the detail so it can be more useful to us.

16. Urgently sort the bank connection to recover safely from corrupted import

    Having linked to my bank account I have run into serious issues with it not matching my online statements! It turns out that a connection interruption corrupted the import, leaving random entries missing.

    This is utterly unacceptable in any software. More so with a accounts system. QB must be programmed to both realise this has happened and either automatically re import and match against the bank account or at the very least notify the user and offer a simple method to resolve the issue. Expecting users to go through over a years worth of records line by line is not acceptable.

18. Add feature "back" to show a check as cleared in QBO

    My company was previously in QBD. After reconciling the accounts, the vendors checks that we marked off as reconciled would then display the word "Cleared" when double clicking to open up the check (Bill Payments(Check)).
    I have not found any option for this in QBO. I have searched the forums and only found suggestions of searching the register/running a report.
    We print close to 1,000 checks a week. Going in and trying to run a report to change filters when I have an appraiser on the phone isn't efficient when I could open up the check and see whether it has been cleared or not (while also being able to verify that we sent it to the correct address, etc.).
    Can this feature that was so useful in QBD be added to QBO? The simplicity/ease/speed of being able to click on a vendors check while in their profile is a great feature that is very useful.

19. Top Tips to Preserve Your Car Battery in Winter

    As winter blankets the world in a layer of frost and snow, car owners face the challenge of preserving their vehicles' batteries in the harsh cold. The plummeting temperatures can take a toll on your car battery, leading to sluggish starts or, worse, a dead battery. To ensure your car stays reliable during the winter months, here are some top tips to preserve your car battery and keep it in peak condition.

    Check Your Battery Health Regularly:

    Before winter sets in, it's crucial to assess the overall health of your car battery. Most automotive shops offer battery testing services, and some even provide it for free. If your battery is on the verge of failure, replacing it before winter arrives can save you from unexpected breakdowns in the cold.

    Keep Your Car Warm:

    Cold temperatures can significantly reduce a battery's efficiency. Whenever possible, park your car in a garage or use a car cover to shield it from the biting cold. A warmer environment helps maintain the battery's chemical reactions, ensuring it delivers the necessary power when you start your vehicle.

    Invest in a Battery Blanket or Heater:

    For those who live in extremely cold climates, a battery blanket or heater can be a lifesaver. These devices are designed to keep the battery at an optimal temperature, preventing it from losing its charge in freezing conditions. They are easy to install and can make a significant difference in preserving your battery's health during winter.

    Minimize Short Trips:

    Frequent short trips can be harsh on your car battery, especially in cold weather. The engine requires more energy to start in low temperatures, and short trips don't allow the alternator enough time to recharge the battery fully. If possible, combine errands or opt for longer drives to give your battery the chance to recharge adequately.

    Turn Off Accessories Before Turning Off the Engine:

    Before shutting off your car, make sure to turn off all unnecessary accessories, such as lights, heaters, and the radio. This reduces the load on the battery when you start the car next time. Cold weather already demands more power from the battery, so minimizing additional drains can help extend its life.

    Use a Battery Charger or Maintainer:

    Consider investing in a battery charger or maintainer, especially if your vehicle will be parked for an extended period. These devices are designed to keep your battery at an optimal charge level without overcharging. They are easy to use and can be a valuable tool for preserving your battery during winter hibernation.

    Ensure Tight Connections:

    Cold weather can cause metal to contract, potentially loosening the connections on your battery terminals. Periodically check for any corrosion or loose connections and tighten them as needed. Clean off any corrosion with a mixture of baking soda and water to maintain good electrical contact.

    Update Your Vehicle's Software:

    Modern vehicles often come equipped with advanced battery management systems. Ensure that your vehicle's software is up-to-date, as manufacturers may release updates that optimize the charging and discharging cycles, especially in extreme weather conditions.

    Carry Jumper Cables or a Jump Starter:

    Despite your best efforts, unforeseen circumstances can still lead to a dead battery. Always keep jumper cables or a portable jump starter in your vehicle. Familiarize yourself with the proper usage, and be prepared to jump-start your car or assist others in need.

    Drive Safely and Smoothly:

    Lastly, adopt a smooth driving style during winter. Avoid sudden stops, starts, and sharp turns, as these actions put additional strain on your vehicle's electrical system and can contribute to battery wear. A gentle driving approach helps preserve your battery and ensures a safer winter driving experience.
