    Hector, I am having trouble with an items import. The name column states I have already used the name. I think it is because of the sub categories. I have 972 items so it would be a big chore to edit them all. Any suggestions? I have checked as ther is no space between the name and colon.

    Thank you! Excellent recap for me since I had not done this in a while. If I leave out adding nothing to the Inventory Asset, Quantity on Hand and Re-Order columns before I import to QB, will it still work? I do not want to track their products as inventory since they truly do not carry inventory of any of these products. The purpose of adding the products is to include them on a Sales Receipt as all their products are made to order at the time a customer places an order.

    Thanks Hector, this was helpful. I exported the products list & did an inventory count. Now I am trying to upload it & all to the column "Names" (name,sku,type,sales description...etc) looks red & seem to be blocking the import. This is the same list that I exported & I only have updated the G/L's & counts. Is it warning me that the part is already there & its trying to duplicate it? Brian

    Hi Hector - i just imported the stocks/services in my QB online.. And it was great.. Thank you.. The problem was - when i just create a reports - suddenly there was an Inventory Shrinkage.. Why like that? Can you advise? And there was a double entry in Inventory Adjustment? Do you think where do i got wrong? Thank you

    • @HectorGarciaCPA
      @HectorGarciaCPA  Před 2 lety

      You need to check to see if there are inventory adjustments created. Its not “shrinkage” per se.. its just that it picked that account as the adjustment

    Hi! Thanks for the video! Question - once you have product uploaded with its inventory, how do you upload updates on the product already in QBOA? It is not working for us. The inventory upload works for first time set up of a product, but when you have more of the same product coming in, we are told that has to be entered manually and cannot be uploaded. Is this true?

    • @HectorGarciaCPA
      @HectorGarciaCPA  Před 2 lety

      You can upload once…. Any other uploads would be to replace description, cost, and price. Quantities can not he uploaded once the items exisit

    This is ONLY for a retail type of company. Correct? There is no concept of assemblies in QBO for say a manufacturing firm. Are there any third-party QBO partners who you recommend that provide ERP or more advanced inventory capabilities?

    • @HectorGarciaCPA
      @HectorGarciaCPA  Před 3 lety

      Correct.
      If you want manufacturing, you should use QuickBooks Enterprise or add on an app to QBO, like: SOS Inventory or Locate Inventory

    Hi Hector,
    Thanks for the amazing content.
    I notice that the QuickBooks Online Inventory Import Excel File does not have a "Brands" nor an "EAN" (barcode) field.
    I am planning on importing approximately 100 brands into QB and I really need these fields.
    Can I create them somehow or is there a workaround?

    • @HectorGarciaCPA
      @HectorGarciaCPA  Před 3 lety +1

      Thats right.. QB is not good for that type of stuff.
      The closest thing would be Category for brand and SKU for Bardcode.
      But either way, there is no barcode functionality inside QB online

    Hi, Sir Hector. I am a bit confused. I imported my inventory items with beginning balances in it. However, when I look at the report, it says that the inventory beginning balance is 0. May I ask what could be the problem? Could chart of accounts affect it? Since I also imported my chart of accounts. Thanks! Have a great day.
