QuickBooks Manufacturing
QuickBooks Manufacturing & Wholesale is an industry-specific version of QuickBooks Online offering some features manufacturers need to track financials tied to their inventory. While the inclusion of this version hints at industry specific developments, the number of additional features available in this version are surprisingly limited. QuickBooks for manufacturing can do the basics such as creating bills of lading, work orders and tracking items at multiple locations but only supports average cost calculations and does not offer either traceability or lot / serial number tracking.
