Packing Slips

I'd like to us QB to create packing slips. I am using Quickbooks Desktop Mac Plus 2024 V 23.1.8 R 9.2

Per online instructions, I tried enabling sales orders, but I cannot find the option to do so in the QB settings. 

Please advise on how I can find and start using the Packing Slips function - thank you!

Thanks for joining us here in the Community, prints33.

 

I'm happy to show you how to enable sales orders in your QuickBooks Desktop for Mac account.

 

This can be done in a few steps. Here's how:

 

1. Sign in to the QuickBooks company file as Admin.
2. From the QuickBooks Edit menu, select Preferences.
3. On the left pane, choose Sales & Customers then go to the Company Preferences tab.
4. Select the Enable Sales Order checkbox then select OK.

 

The following article provides additional info about creating a sales order in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

Please feel free to reach back out if you have any other questions. I'll be here to lend a hand.

I am logged in as an admin but there is no Preferences in the Edit menu. This is the problem I am trying to solve - thank you!

I appreciate the time you've taken to resolve the problem regarding enabling the Sales Order in your QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) Mac Plus, prints33.

 

Please note that the Sales Order feature is available only in QBDT Premier and Enterprise. If you need to use packing slip in QBDT, you can create a customized invoice template instead and modify it to function as a packing slip. 

 

However, if you'd prefer to utilize a dedicated packing slip feature, you can consider exploring third-party applications that offers this functionality.

You can use the trial version of Desktop Enterprise for good on Parallels to create the pacling list with your Mac.
