QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions review. Good for selling stock items...not so much for customized items.
- Reports can be modified and filtered to provide specific information. They can also be exported into Excel for further formatting and filtering.
- It is fairly user friendly, with a flowchart on the home page to show how estimates turn into orders and then invoices, among other business functions. It is quite forgiving with input errors, allowing one to access already saved data (orders, invoices, etc.) and change it without a lengthy process of backing out previous info and re-entering new info.
- The toolbar at the top of the screen can be customized to include the functions that one uses most, avoiding the process of selecting a tab and scrolling down to the needed option. One can also personalize how the tab/enter buttons function, as well as date formatting, decimal points, and default scripts for invoices, statements, purchase orders, etc. One can also integrate their established email address to be used through QuickBooks.
- QuickBooks was built to be an accounting program. It is clumsy with inventory. The reports for inventory management are limited.
- The inventory management system functions better for a company that just buys items and then resells them. Purchasing multiple materials and then combining them to be a finished good is possible to do, but needs more hands-on involvement than should be necessary.
- The minimum and maximum reorder points do not function properly. If one has both entered into an item, QuickBooks uses the maximum reorder point only, and ignores the minimum reorder point entirely. I have taken to using only the minimum reorder point and not even entering the maximum into the item.
- Our manufacturing company mainly provides made-to-order LED lighting. QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions makes the inventory process very cumbersome as every line item has to be "built" manually. This is very time consuming and probably costs our company about $700-$800 in wages per month for this to be completed.
- There is a "1099 Wizard" that can be used in QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions. This allows our bookkeeper to process the 1099-MISC forms for our subcontractors each year, rather than paying our accountant to do it, which cost us about $250-$300 the last year that he did it.
- Enter open orders from customers to track their due dates and back orders.
- Invoice customers for products shipped to them.
- Prepare Purchase Orders to send to vendors for additional materials. Track due dates, late shipments, and reorder points.
- Enter receivables and maintain the company checking account(s).
- Prepare and print yearly 1099-MISC forms.
- Enter invoices from suppliers and prepare and send accounts payable checks.
- By formatting reports, I have been able to determine which specific items have been sold most in order to better manage materials for those items.
- By formatting the templates for Sales Orders, Work Orders, and Packing Slips I have been able to not only add additional fields onto the forms, but also have specified which info prints on which forms, making them more efficient.
- By using the "Customer Type" field to enter a 2-digit state abbreviation, I can sort my customers by state for reports about sales territories.
- By modifying what filters are used on reports, I can take a general report about all of our customers or items and dial it in to just one customer or item, making a huge and unwieldy report into a very specific one.
- Adding more products to the item list.
- Reviewing and updating our minimum reorder points for better ordering time frames.
- Revising Bills of Materials as new assembly items are introduced.

- Getting the program downloaded onto a remote server.
- Getting the Remote Desktop connected to the server.
- Making sure everyone could connect to the remote server, and therefore, QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions.
- Check writing and reconciliation.
- Entering and paying invoices from suppliers.
- Entering payments received and preparing deposits.
- Building Finished Goods! Each line item on our customer invoices have to be done separately.
- Entering new items that have a Bill of Materials. It's easier to find an existing item that is close to the new item, duplicate it, and then change the parts that are different from the original. Doing a new item from scratch is very time consuming.
- Determining what materials have low quantities and need to be reordered. Even though QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions has minimum and maximum reorder points, they don't work correctly.
Great for the small to medium guy, not the big dogs
- Ease of Use
- Great Customer Support
- Consistent updates/upgrades
- Remote Backing up (optional)
- Local back ups are not as strong as I'd like
- It's easy to become inundated with the reports
- Customer Support can be a long wait at times
- Allows for multiple users to view allocated funds.
- The number of custom reports is a double-edged sword. They're great, but at the same time, the number of options is a bit much.
- Discussing funds is quite easy thanks to the reports and graphs.
Each time I call them, it's usually for a problem a bit higher than the standard techs can handle. I almost always spend about an hour on hold waiting for someone, I almost always have to escalate my claim, and I basically waste two to four hours of my day fixing a single problem, and sometimes the problem carries over to the next day.
Good sidekick
- drill down to the transaction level
- easy to learn very intuitive
- solid reporting capabilities
- consolidations. We have 10 companies but need to consolidate in excel.
- I was not able to open more than 2 companies at the time.
- expense allocation module (dimensions) would be great.
- we got the GL piece only and that made it hard to get 100% satisfaction. Our company could have benefited from all the other modules/advance features
- QB does a good job for its intended purpose.
- We are happy with the ROI we got, but now our needs are bigger
- record keeping
- financial statements
- accounts payable
- none, we got what we expected.
