We are thrilled to announce the release of QuickBooks 2018 for Windows desktop! This exciting new version offers numerous fresh features and enhancements to existing ones, ensuring a seamless and efficient user experience.
The new QuickBooks brings with it many small improvements that are bound to make your life easier. Users will be excited to learn that the character of the QuickBooks Enterprise inventory will be present.
This blog will provide the main variations and changes you will find in the new QuickBooks 2018, along with user reviews.
Multiple Monitor Support
Intuit has recently introduced additional features that make it much easier to manage multiple monitors. With the ability to work on up to three monitors, users have reported increased productivity and efficiency. However, the reviews on this feature have been mixed, with some expressing interest in the change while others have been disappointed with the implementation.
We also found that employees ranked the request for multiple monitors #1 by QuickBooks customers.
Search in the Chart of Accounts
Those who need to work with many accounts simultaneously will find this feature extremely useful. Although this is a preexisting feature, it has proved to be helpful for many. There are comparable features that help keep track of multiple accounts.
Cash/Accrual Toggle on Reports
Another improvement that is noteworthy is the easiness of switching your financial report’s basis. Those who use Cash and Accrual more often will find the flip extremely useful. Those who work their reports on a cash basis and then measure them against the accrual basis reports will find that QuickBooks 2018 is a game-changer. Reviews showed that before the new QuickBooks release, switching from an accrual report to a cash report was a bothersome process.
Past Due Stamp
As part of your job, you might need to resend overdue invoices to clients and customers. QuickBooks 2018 has a feature that can help you identify clients who are due for payment. It’s crucial to get paid on time, and no one wants to be in a situation where they’re not paid at all. Previously, overdue invoices had to be identified and sent out manually, with the words “PAST DUE” in red, in the hope that it would encourage prompt payment. With the help of QuickBooks 2018, overdue invoices are automatically flagged and can be printed or emailed, making the process easier and more streamlined.
Brand New Keyboard Shortcuts
The new QuickBooks 2018 introduces brand new keyboard shortcuts helpful in copying and pasting the lines into transactions. These keyboard shortcuts will not only save time but they will streamline QuickBooks processes.
Inventory Report Enhancements
In the previous version of QuickBooks, you may often have been bothered by the fact that you could not modify the inventory reports by changing filters or adding columns. Finally, the new QuickBooks 2018 has addressed this issue and allows for these modifications. This made QuickBooks even more essential to businesses and individuals. Inventory is vital to many companies, and this upgrade makes it easier to report inventory accurately.
Enhanced Order Fulfillment with Mobile Barcode Scanning
The new QuickBooks 2018 will help modernize and update workflow by fulfilling open sales orders through “picking” inventory items. The central part required is the skill and capability to deal with remote devices. One of these devices is a barcode scanner. Now, you no longer must worry about being fastened directly to a laptop or desktop when you scan the items.
Merge Vendors
This added feature helps in merging four vendors at one time. Reviews show that this feature helps save a lot of effort and time for many accounting professionals who frequently work with merging multiple vendor records.
