QuickBooks Enterprise will be the only desktop solution offered by Intuit after September 30th.

Video Overview

This Enterprise solution integrates with a broad number of QuickBooks compatible business applications to provide solutions for your business. The system will help you streamline all the critical operations of your business, including finances, inventory, sales, purchasing and payroll. The system will go far beyond traditional financial management, leveraging technologies to help you manage your sales opportunities and activities, inventory across multiple warehouses, and workers in the field.

The system features 13 predefined user roles, giving you the ability to easily setup users of the system. These user roles then allow you to limit access to various parts of the software, based on that user’s role. Predefined roles include:

  • Accountant
  • Accounts Payable
  • Accounts Receivable
  • Banking
  • Finance
  • Full Access
  • Inventory
  • Payroll Manager
  • Payroll Processor
  • Purchasing
  • Sales

QuickBooks Enterprise uses a powerful, industry-standard SQL database to support your business and its growth. The database is a relational database that uses client-server technology in multi-user mode to coordinate and manage access to the company file. You don’t have to worry about complex database installation and access, and you don’t need to know SQL to use it.

Features

Bills of Materials (BOM)

In the system you are able to create Bills of Materials (BOMs) or kits, which will track the inventory items needed to build completed goods. The system will also track all costs associated with these items so you can charge the most appropriate price for each product. The system allows you to include both material and non-material costs (labor/overhead) allowing to further hone your pricing skills. As you build finished goods, Enterprise Solutions automatically deducts component items from your inventory and alerts you when it’s time to re-order, or when there aren’t enough components for an assembly.

Fixed Asset Tracking

Fixed Asset tracking is fully integrated into QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions, so you can manage your fixed assets, such as equipment, trucks, cash registers, and computers, from cradle to grave. The system allows you can enter fixed assets, calculate depreciation, record asset purchases and sales, and print reports. You can also compute depreciation for up to six asset bases, including federal, state, book, and AMT.

General Ledger

The General Ledger in QuickBooks Enterprise will construct a complete and accurate audit trail for your company. This log of all transactions gives you the ability to: produce reports, process sales, track purchases/inventory, and process both payables and receivables.

The always on audit trail will vastly reduce the amount of time you spend investigating changes to your Enterprise files. This will help you protect against employee fraud while simultaneously detecting any errors in employee entry of data.

Inventory Tracking

The Inventory capabilities of QuickBooks Enterprise will give you all the tools you need to properly track your products from purchase to sale. The inventory stock status report will tell you exactly what inventory needs to be reordered. The system allows you to see the quantities on-hand, on sales order, and on purchase order for each item. You are able to set reorder points which will automatically alert you when new inventory items need to be purchased. The ability to track manufacturer’s part numbers allows you to avoid errors in ordering, while cutting out the wasted time spent looking up correct product numbers.

QuickBooks Enterprise is fully EDI capable using TrueCommerce EDI. Electronic Data Internchange (EDI) is quickly becoming the most widely-used form of business-to-business electronic commerce to automate order processing. TrueCommerce EDI setup and integration within Enterprise Solutions is easy and reliable. TrueCommerce EDI includes access to free, unlimited phone support from knowledgeable EDI professionals. The system will allow you to vastly optimize your order fulfillment process, while greatly increasing efficiency and lowering annual costs.

Payables

QuickBooks Enterprise will track all of your payment obligations giving you the knowledge you need to properly budget your capital. The system is capable of tracking hundreds of thousands of vendors. The system will automatically track every purchase until an item is received and your vendor is paid. The system allows you to setup payment date reminders, and turn each bill entry into a check with a single click.

Payroll and Employee Management

QuickBooks Enterprise has very simplistic yet effective payroll processing tools. The system will allow you to setup the payroll process and streamline activities to automate your payroll processing. The system is capable of depositing wages directly into employee bank accounts.

The system features an Employee Center which is a single screen of all your vital employee details. QuickBooks Enterprise will give you added protection against lawsuits because it will store all employee information, documenting compliance in one central location. By tracking information relating to: recruiting, hiring, compensation, benefits, employee relations, and termination, you can ensure that you have the proper legal documentation to fight any lawsuits. You are capable of easily tracking employee information by entering employment data, emergency contacts, current and historical compensation, and payroll status, and personal information into the system.

Receivables

QuickBooks Enterprise will track all your customers, even if you have well over 100,000+. Customer information is stored and available for access through one simple screen. You are able to see what each customer owes, along with an entire transaction history (estimates, invoices, received payments, and more). The Customer Center can be filtered by any custom filtering rule, otherwise the system allows you to sort by: active customers, open balance or invoice, or received payments.

Reporting

QuickBooks Enterprise will give you an up to date view of the information you desire. With over 120 standard reports you will be able to find your company’s most telling data. With a purchase of Intuit Business Analysis ES you will be given the ability to create completely customizable reports. All reports can be exported to Excel or any other spreadsheet software, allowing you to make global changes .

For your multi-location company QuickBooks Enterprise gives you the ability to consolidate financial reports in one easy step. All you need to do is select a report and the data files to draw from, QuickBooks will then create an Excel spreadsheet with a column for each location and a summation column.

Some of the standard reports available in the system include:

  • Profit and Loss
  • Forecast vs. Actual Budget
  • Statement of Cash Flows
  • A/R Aging Detail

Sales Order Tracking

QuickBooks Enterprise makes the creation of estimates, sales orders and invoices as simplistic as possible. The system will allow you to send any of these documents to your customers without ever leaving QuickBooks Enterprise. With the goal of saving time, you are able to duplicate or edit any past estimate. Furthermore, estimates an be automatically turned into invoices; and sales orders can prompt the automatic production of a purchase order or work order. The system will support hundreds of thousands of customers along with up to 200 shipping addresses per customer. Additionally, you can setup multiple email addresses for each customer making tasks like invoicing much less difficult.

The system allows you to setup custom pricing and billing levels for your customers. You are able to fine-tune the pricing for up to 100 types of customers/programs. Within the system any price level can be linked with any customer, prompting QuickBooks Enterprise to automatically apply the proper discount to estimates/invoices. This functionality also allows any service based business to bill for employee time at different rates. Rates are variable by client and service, giving you even more flexibility.

QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise Review

August 5th, 2024 • Product Experience: 2+ years • Role: End User

The system and support have been slowly going downhill. They also continue to raise their prices; it no longer seems like they want to work with small businesses. When I call for support issues, I have to wait usually an hour to speak to someone. At that point, I was already frustrated, and more often than not, the person was not knowledgeable enough to help me. I had an issue with my time tracking recently, and it took DAYS to resolve. I cannot run a business using such an unreliable system.

I have been a Quickbooks user for 20+ years and have never had an issue

July 22nd, 2024 • Product Experience: 2+ years • Role: Purchaser

I have been a Quickbooks user for 20+ years and have never had an issue with it, but as of late, every time they do an update, all of my data gets moved around. The last update, I had to search five different areas to find various PO’s. My register is also off. With another update pending, I am refusing the update and I now stand the risk of losing my login. I have had to search to find a new solution to assure I can keep my business running.

Good as an accounting software but struggles with inventory planning

July 3rd, 2024

Quickbooks is good as an accounting software but once you begin trying to make it work across specifics industries, it begins to fracture. We are a steel manufacturer and the system struggles with any type of inventory planning. We also have trouble tracking the costs of raw material. I would go as far as saying that we have no way to truly track or understand the cost of material in the system. At this point we have a slew of spreadsheets trying to keep us efficient.

The enterprise version is a robust accounting tool

May 31st, 2024 • Product Experience: 2+ years • Roles: Purchaser & End User

The enteprise version is a robust accounting tool but it is not set up to support a government contractor. To have it work to meet federal cost accounting requirments, you either need add-on tools or be willing to commit a great deal of time for manul processes. My biggest issue is being able to split expense line items by percentage to allocate across several projects. It allows me to list the expense, but I have no way of committing percentages. I have had to use Excel to track the expenses.

The Enterprise version is a very economical system

May 16th, 2024 • Product Experience: 2+ years • Role: Implementor

The Enterprise version is a very economical system for small to medium-sized organizations. However, once a company starts expanding, the system begins showing it’s limitations. Our company exceeded it’s allowable file size and we have been paying to shrink our file data every few years. Though the software is economical, we have began to question if there may be a more stable software for our data, even if we have to pay more.

Great for developing small businesses

May 13th, 2024 • Product Experience: 2+ years • Roles: Purchaser & End User

The software is great to help a small business develop but once we began really expanding, the software actually severely began limiting us. It isn’t a true ERP, rather requiring add-ons to have it meet specific industry needs. As a manufacturer and distributor, we were not accurately tracking material or production schedules and the CRM/sales modules were severely lacking. We had to make the decision to move off of the software to assure we could meet our 5 year growth plan.

Pros

Great for developing small businesses

Cons

Not a true ERP

Great for Multi-Entity Accounting

April 26th, 2024 • Product Experience: trial only • Role: End User

Our compnay, after expanding locations, required multi-entity accounting. We are using one of the more basic QuickBooks versions and explored moving to their Enterprise. The system was great for the multi-entity requirement but did not offer automation for intecompany transactions. I was not able to map the expenses for automation, rather left with manually mapping the transactions across entities. This was not conducive to an effective workflow and we have had to look outside QuickBooks.

Pros

Great for Multi-Entity Accounting

Cons

Does not offer automation for intercompnay transactions and mapping

The software works fine; it's okay

November 15th, 2023 • Product Experience: 2+ years • Roles: Purchaser & End User

We are a specialty contractor using the Enterprise Contractor edition.The software works fine; it’s okay. It does the basics of what we need it to do but still leaves us with manual tasks. Our industry specific needs such as job costing and coding and budget tracking per job, the software lacks. As a growing business, the software will get us by but it is not great at meeting indivdualized project needs.

With the recent update, the payroll structure was changed

September 29th, 2023 • Product Experience: 2+ years • Role: End User

With the recent update, the payroll structure was changed. In the past, we had control over the payroll but now it is pulled into Intuit. However they are not able to consolidate the records for multiple state taxes. I used to be able to tag multiple employees with different states and it would calculate the report. Without the ability to consolidate, support has advised me to run multiple payroll cycles. This is time consumng and not efficient!

As our business grew, the software was not able to keep up

June 27th, 2023 • Product Experience: 2+ years • Role: End User

As our business grew, the software was not able to keep up. The inventory module is cumbersome and very slow. Because it does not integrate with our quoting software, we have a great deal of double entry. We also are about to double our user count and we are not sure the system will be able to handle the added users. The system is not equipped to handle medium to larger enterprises.

We ran into some serious issues with payroll

May 25th, 2023 • Product Experience: 2+ years • Role: End User

The system worked okay in some areas but when it came to the payroll, we ran into some serious issues. When calculating payroll, the software was not calculating the taxes correctly. In one profile, the taxes would report accurately but in creating a separate report, there would be missing taxes and the system would throw them into suspense. Despite reaching out for support the problem has remained.

We are using the Manufacturing edition on Enterprise and with every upgrade, our system is changed and messed up. We have customized the software to meet our needs but those customization are altered with the updates. Our categories are constantly changed and any time I want to find a PO, I need to search 5 different locations because the historical data is constantly being moved.

Quickbooks Enterprise handles the accounting well

May 10th, 2023 • Product Experience: 2+ years • Role: End User

Quickbooks Enterprise handles the accounting well but for the supply component of our business, we struggle to make it work. We ship hundreds of orders per a month and trying to create a shipping label from the software is a night mare. We also have to invoice each line indivdually instead of being able to combine line items. We have a great deal of Excel sheets to try to operate the business efficiently using the software.

May 5th, 2023 • Product Experience: 2+ years • Role: End User

The software is not equipped to efficiently handle a mid-sized, growing business. We house multiple entites under our umbrellla, needing to track them separately and then consolidate for reporting. Quickbooks is not able to efficinently process the reporting. To have any reports we have been forced to use a string of Excel sheets with a great deal of import/export processes. Overall it is not a great fit for a growing business.

The software has difficulty handling all of our company locations as separate entities and a lot of manual data entry has to be done to record our payroll entries and basically any outside solutions we use because QuickBooks can’t handle the full needs of our enterprise. We have outgrown this solution.

Quickbooks has been a pain. We had to use an advanced inventory add-on to meet our needs. It crashes all the time, it’s complicated. We pay an IT guy to keep us up and running because I don’t have the time to sit in a server room for 6 hours to make it work. Quickbooks just shut us down this morning and kept us hostage for money, $4,740/year to keep our service going.

Best platform

August 14th, 2018 • Roles: Purchaser & End User

QuickBooks is the best platform that help to streamline all the vital tasks of the business ranging from finances, payroll, purchasing to sales.

Pros

What I like most about QuickBooks is that it is easy to set-up and start using. For that reason, with just a little training the user is able to offer perfect work. This platform has all the features that suits the needs of both small and mid-sized businesses. QuickBooks has a robust,industry standard SQL database. For that reason, this platform support all kinds of business and their growth. Additionally, it is easy to customize QuickBooks to ensure that it suits your desires. Last, I like the fact that this platform integrates with other QuickBooks compatible business systems.

Cons

Although QuickBooks is the best platform for business management, I think it would be better if the support would reduce the subscription fee. Sometimes it is hard to set-up QuickBooks Enterprise, mainly when you do not get the required training.

Product has many more search functions than custom software we have used.

--Product could NOT provide a stack of work orders for customers requiring service on a regular cycle [ fire alarm & security systems ] in a given month. Outside programming has been required for this essential function. --Tab, Enter, and Arrow Key functions are very unforgiving if you hit the wrong one. --Software will not recognize dates that are not entered PRECISELY [ Example: If set up with this format 01/04/2014, software will NOT accept 01-04-14 or 01-04-2014 ]. --Contacts and phone numbers are not paired when imported from QB12 to QB13.

QB Enterprise allows for tracking your accounting needs at a cost that is much less than a number of other solutions.

Pros

The cost as compared to other solutions was a major determining factor. It is also easy to implement and use. Not a huge learning curve

Cons

Some of the reporting features don't give everything needed. Can be customized to give better info
