QuickBooks has been the leading accounting software for small businesses for years. With each new release, Intuit finds ways to add helpful new features that save users time and effort in managing their finances. The 2023 version made mobile access even easier. And QuickBooks 2024 promises to bring more convenient updates users will appreciate.
Simplified Inventory Management
Managing inventory can be one of the most complex aspects of running a product-based small business. Making sure you have the right items in stock without carrying too much can be a tricky balancing act. QuickBooks 2024 aims to simplify the process with:
Expanded Mobile Barcode Scanning
The QuickBooks mobile app will now allow barcode scanning to update inventory counts no matter where you are. Rather than solely doing it from a desktop, you can check stock on shelves and cartons in your retail space or warehouse. This ensures you always know exactly what's available to keep workflow moving.
Automatic Reorder Notifications
You'll no longer have to manually keep track of when to reorder products. The improved inventory dashboard will proactively notify you when stock of any item drops below its automatic reorder point. You can then quickly place a purchase order to replenish with just a few clicks, keeping your inventory perpetually in stock.
More Intuitive Invoicing
Creating professional invoices quickly is key to getting small business clients and customers to pay for goods and services faster. The new invoicing features coming in QuickBooks 2024 make the entire process more seamless.
Template Previews
You'll be able to instantly see what your invoice looks like before sending it out. Template previews make it easy to view the full customized invoice and make any needed tweaks on the fly. Making sure everything is perfect now takes less effort and fewer steps.
Bulk Invoice Printing
Do you need to print out hard copies of invoices before placing them in the mail? QuickBooks 2024 will let you select multiple invoices in an open batch and print them all out at once with just a couple clicks. It's perfect when you have to send out paper copies to multiple clients and customers at the end of each week or month.
More Powerful Reporting Capabilities
QuickBooks 2024 takes custom reports and dashboards to an all new level with major reporting upgrades such as:
Report Groups
Save sets of commonly used reports you run on regular intervals as report groups. Rather than running 10 reports one by one, you can now generate them all together in seconds with just one click.
Report Comments
Your team can now leave notes on reports—perfect for adding context or insights around changes and anomalies when sharing with colleagues and accountants. This facilitates better internal communication and analysis.
These are just a few of the exciting improvements and features being added to QuickBooks 2024. Intuit continues innovating their signature small business accounting software to meet evolving needs and make business finance operations even faster and simpler. The fresh user-friendly updates will help save all users time so they can get back to more important work. When it releases later next year, upgrading promises to bring convenient enhancements that both new and veteran QuickBooks customers will appreciate.
