Читать книгу QuickBooks Online For Dummies - David H. Ringstrom - Страница 23

It’s very likely that you’ll have accounting needs that aren’t met by a base subscription for QBO. As I discussed earlier, for example, payroll is an add-on that entails additional monthly costs. The Intuit Payments app, which supports electronic customer payment processing and integrates with QBO, doesn’t have a monthly cost, but it does have per-transaction fees.

Many add-on apps are available for QBO. Intuit rose to the top of the small-business accounting world by empowering third-party developers to create apps that enhance the functionality of QBO, and over time, you can expect more apps to be developed.

In Chapter 1, I use the term apps to describe the versions of QBO available from mobile device stores (such as Google Play and Apple’s App Store). In this section, when I refer to apps, I mean add-ons developed to enhance the functionality of QBO. You can browse the available offerings at this slightly unwieldy address: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/app/apps. Or you can choose Apps from the navigation bar, as shown in Figure 2-2.

As shown in Figure 2-3, you can click any app to view a description, price information, and sometimes a video tutorial.

Although add-on apps can provide additional functionality in QBO, you may still encounter limitations. QBO won’t allow you to do the following things, for example:

 Track your balance sheet by class.

 Process more than 350,000 transactions annually without QBO Advanced.

 Manage a robust inventory.
