Some of the functions you need are actually available in QBO, sfuller.

 

I'll give out the steps on all the features that you can enable in QBO. Let's start with adding large free form texts on your invoices. You can customize your invoice template to show the field you need.

 

However, you can only add up to 31 characters on each field. Another workaround is to add those texts on the Message on invoice box. You can type up to one-thousand characters and they will all be printed on the invoice for your customers to see.

 

Second is controlling the invoice numbering. You can turn on the Custom transaction numbers option so you can manually change the invoice numbers if needed.

 

Here's how:

  1. Click the Gear icon in the upper right-hand corner of the Dashboard.
  2. Under Your Company, click Account and Settings.
  3. Go to the Sales tab on the left.
  4. Select Sales form content section to open it.
  5. Check the Custom transaction numbers box.
  6. Click Save, and then Done.

For memorized reports, you can open any reports you need and customize them. Once done, you can save the customization so it'll be easier for you to access them anytime with the changes you've made. Here's how: How to customize reports

.

To import batches of checks from Excel, you can save them as CSV files and bring them over to QBO. Here's how: How to import bank transactions using Excel CSV files.

 

Now, I'm going to talk about the options that are not available. To print your signatures on checks, you can follow my colleague's suggestion above. There are a couple of third-party apps that can do that for you.

 

Currently, you can only print the paychecks in a 2 part pre-printed check style. By the name itself, QuickBooks Online is a cloud-based program. This means that it's an online program which needs internet connection for it to work. Unlike the Desktop version, QBO can be accessed anytime and anywhere on your mobile phone or tablet.

 

This leads us to the next functionality which is to have different subscriptions per company. We designed it this way since all of your data are stored in our cloud per account.

 

You can learn more about it here:

Of course, I will also share your thoughts and suggestions to our developers. They will be evaluated and might get a chance of being added in any future updates.

 

I hope I've covered all of your concerns today. If you still need more help, just leave a reply and we'll get right back to you.
