QuickBooks Enterprise Retail Features
QuickBooks Enterprise has features to simplify pricing, improve order and inventory management, and help you sell online.
E-commerce integration*
Simplify e-commerce management, avoid stockouts, and gain a clearer picture of your profitability by integrating QuickBooks with top online stores and marketplaces. Inventory counts update with every sale, regardless of how many channels you sell in. Easily add product listings across channels, and work with your preferred shipping provider right in QuickBooks.
* Apps sold separately, additional fees may apply
Cash flow hub
Get a single dashboard to monitor your incoming and outgoing cash flow. Track invoices, sales receipts, credit memos, payments, and more. Manage expenses by tracking paid and upcoming vendor bills, and consolidate multiple reports without manual calculations.
Bill and PO workflow approvals*
Manage cash flow, boost transparency, and help protect against fraud with customizable bill and purchase order workflow approvals that create a digital audit trail for each transaction. Delegate with confidence while keeping oversight. One dashboard lets you maintain cash flow oversight and track bills and POs that need approval. Employees get timely reminders so they don’t miss an approval deadline. Customize your workflow approvals your way, or use out-of-the-box templates to make it easy to set up approval flows that cater to your business.
* Available with QuickBooks Enterprise Platinum and Diamond subscriptions
Inventory categorization and expiration dates*
Establish up to four levels of categorization on inventory and save time by using categories to report on items. Keep your inventory up to date, sell more quickly, and reduce business losses by assigning expiration dates, which can also be included on sales orders, invoices, and other customer communications.
* Expiration dates are available with QuickBooks Enterprise Platinum and Diamond subscriptions
Customized chart of accounts
Get a better outlook on your business and on tax season with an industry-specific chart of accounts. Organize your information the way you want to see it, customized with the accounts and settings you need.
Schedule and pay bills faster with QuickBooks
Save time by scheduling and paying bills in QuickBooks. Use the funding source you choose and a digital or physical form your vendors prefer.* QuickBooks automatically marks the bill paid and notifies you once the money is sent. Gain financial flexibility by paying vendors from a card or bank transfer, then having the money sent via physical check or bank transfer.
Custom price levels
Create up to 750 price levels for any item. Or take total control over your pricing strategy with Advanced Pricing.*
Total any column on sales and purchases
Reduce tedious work and manual data-entry errors by totaling quantities and custom fields, like weight, on sales forms. Verify you’re ordering the correct amount without having to manually total quantities on purchase orders.
Contactless payments
QuickBooks Payments* users can now accept contactless payments via a single card reader and record them automatically in QuickBooks Desktop. Accept Apple Pay®, Google Pay™, EMV chip, and debt and credit card payments.

QuickBooks Retail Reports
QuickBooks Enterprise Retail edition functionality includes key reports made with your business in mind
Industry-specific report bundles
QuickBooks Enterprise comes with 14 built-in retail-specific reports that help you see where you stand in every area of your business. In addition, Advanced Reporting* allows you to create your own custom reports from scratch using the raw data in QuickBooks. If the data is in QuickBooks, you can report on it to gain a deeper understanding of your business.
Gross margin by inventory item
If your company records each sales transaction, you can see gross margin by inventory item to gain an understanding of which items are most–and least– profitable so you can adjust your prices to improve margins.
Monthly sales by customer
This report allows you to determine your best customers and their sales activity over the last year, so you can ensure you have items in stock to satisfy their needs as well as the insights you need to sell more.
Purchase volume by vendor
Keep track of which vendors you purchase the most goods from. This report gives you the insights you need when you’re negotiating prices or considering purchases from new vendors.
Sales graph
Need an easy-to-understand visual representation of sales? The sales graph report gives you exactly that. You’ll see your sales by month and which items, customers, or sales reps bring in the most revenue so you can make adjustments to improve income.
Vendor returns detail
See which goods are most commonly returned to each vendor so you can eliminate low-performing items and improve your product mix to satisfy customers.
Alternate vendor reports
Increase your visibility into all available vendors by listing them in key inventory reports like inventory stock status by item and inventory valuation summary. See outstanding purchase orders and compare contracts and pricing across vendors. Batch-import vendor price lists. Plus, you can simplify ordering from alternate vendors by easily accessing them in frequently used reports.
Customer Story
A commercial retailer gets a new QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise file and more advanced reporting
When a QuickBooks file gets too big, the impact on a business can be wide ranging. For Nathan McCartney and the team at Arctic Food Equipment, their overgrown, out-of-date QuickBooks Enterprise file meant that they couldn’t keep an accurate pulse on inventory.

QuickBooks ERP READINESS
QuickBooks Mid Market Solutions
QuickBooks isn’t just for small businesses; we make it work for medium-sized enterprises as well by utilizing the API for integrations and apps. However, if you’ve hit a ceiling in what QuickBooks can do for your growing business, Fourlane is just one of a small handful of firms that have bridged the gap between QuickBooks and ERP systems.
Most firms in the ERP space are either IT or accounting focused but don’t understand the system AND the financial piece – we know both and can help. Fourlane has consultants certified in QuickBooks and other ERP software such as NetSuite and Acumatica.
