This is crap. The work around with the estimates, is not a work around. Any body doing accounting should know this, especially Intuit. The replies that say to use the estimate has never done any kind of manufacturing or built to order business accounting. You have to use a sales order if you build, or put together any type of products. Even if you are a small sign shop, custom metal working, or an electrical component manufacturer. If you are just a retail store, ya this will work. But, a lot of small businesses make something, not just resell other peoples products. That is really up to the larger companies. If QBO is for the small business, either online or brick and mortar, then it needs a sales order. We have been using QuickBooks Desktop and Enterprise for decades. We would love to switch over to QBO but can't without a sales order that posts. We will have to start looking into other online apps like zoho. I wish Intuit would get there act together. They keep saying they have given this to the develop team. But after years nothing, just the same poor excuses and dribble.
