You really do not want to miss the January edition of "QB Talks." At QBTalks on Jan. 18, 2023, at 2 p.m. (EST), you will discover the powerful capabilities of QuickBooks Enterprise focusing on the new 2023 features, and you will earn CPE for attending.
Esther Friedberg Karp will provide you with an introduction to upgrades like the new Cash Flow Hub, enhanced Track Vehicle Mileage feature and reports optimization.
The features she will dive into include: Item Categories, Expiration Dates for Advanced Inventory Serial/Lot tracking users and Intercompany Transactions.
Murph will return to "QBTalks" to host Esther during her presentation, making his typical "no-holds-barred" comments regarding each of the new QuickBooks Enterprise features.
Item Categories — provides a more effective way for Enterprise users to manage their inventory with user-defined Inventory Item Categories. Users can even establish a hierarchical system for their Inventory items by creating up to four (4) levels of subcategories.

Enterprise is expanding the number of ways to track and report on items using this new item categorization convention. Presently, users can run various Inventory item-related reports, including the new "Category" field in those reports and view (sort or filter) report items by category, but more is on the way.
Expiration Dates — allows Enterprise users to add Expiration Dates to lot or serialized products during acquisition (or inventory receiving) and then view those dates in sales transactions. They also can get various reports based upon the expiration dates of their serialized or lot tracked products.

This long needed enhancement helps to ensure that QuickBooks Enterprise can meet the needs of mid-to-larger businesses that must meet requirements for tracking products with expiration dates in a wide variety of industries such as food & beverage, nutrition, cosmeceuticals, pharmaceuticals, etc.
Intercompany Transactions — until now, businesses with multiple related companies have needed to manually create the same transaction in multiple QuickBooks company files to record intercompany financial activities correctly. New for 2023, Enterprise1 users can create relationships between multiple QuickBooks Company files, post intercompany transactions (bills/checks) with the related Companies and keep track of all intercompany transactions.

While this feature is still a work in progress and the development team is enhancing the capabilities, for those businesses with multiple related companies, it presently can save a great deal of time when entities share business expenses.
