What's New in QuickBooks Enterprise 10.0

We're pleased to announce that QuickBooks Enterprise 10.0 has been released.  Businesses on the Full Service Plan will automatically receive their upgrades over the next few weeks.  Here are the new features you can  look forward to:

More Custom Fields with Improved Reporting (only available in QuickBooks Enterprise 10.0)

You know better than anybody what business data you need to track and how you want to use it. More custom fields have been added to QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions for customers, vendors, employees and items so you can capture, track and report on the unique data you need. Set custom fields to accept certain formats such as date, phone number, or select from list to reduce data input errors and improve the quality of your data output. Plus use advanced filtering and sorting to run reports on the custom field information you care about

  • Track information with two to three times more custom fields for customers, vendors, employees, and items. Create up to 15 custom fields for items and up to 30 to be used across customers/employees/vendors
  • Set custom fields to accept certain formats (e.g., dates, phone number, dropdown lists) to improve the accuracy of data input and output
  • Use advanced filtering and sorting to run reports on the custom field information you care about.
Rapidly Add or Edit Multiple List Entries from One Spreadsheet View

Save time by entering and editing your customers, vendors, item, or account information in bulk. You can even copy and paste data from other spreadsheets.

Change Assembly Components on the Fly (only available in QuickBooks Enterprise 10.0)

Save time with new enhancements to Inventory Assemblies. Change quantity and item components on the fly to make substitutions or accommodate special customer requests. Add custom fields, such as serial or lot numbers, to track builds more closely than ever before. Plus print your build assembly with the click of a button and see the quantities needed to accurately build a job.

Fully Integrated Document Management

Organize all your business documents in one place. Document Management lets you attach documents - electronic or scanned files - to any QuickBooks customer, vendor, employee, account or transaction. Because your documents are backed up online (up to about 1,000 2-page PDFs), they are easy to share with your accountant and employees, and accessible from any internet connection. You can even scan documents right in QuickBooks.
