How do I add a list for products so I can select from already entered items like I do for invoices?Purchase order form only has Category, Description, Amount and Gst.

When creating a PO for regular items in the past with quickbooks I could select from my items list as I do for invoices, how do I add that option to the form on qbo?

I appreciate the steps you've taken, @drkoole.

To add a product list to your purchase order form in QuickBooks Online, you need to enable the "Show Items table on expense and purchase forms" setting.

Here are the steps:

Click the Gear icon at the top right of your QuickBooks Online dashboard.
Select Account and Settings from the menu.
On the left-hand menu, click the Expenses tab.
In the Bills and expenses section, click the Edit button.
Enable the "Show Items table on expense and purchase forms."
Click Save and then Done.

After completing the steps, you'll be able to view the Product list in the Item details section.
