NEW! Add online banking transactions in batches

Your client can save time by adding banking transactions directly from their financial institution by batch entering, rather than doing them one-at-a-time. QuickBooks for Mac automatically creates rules to rename payees, making batch transactions even easier!^[9]

NEW! Progress Invoicing

QuickBooks for Mac now allows your client to invoice for projects in phases. Whether by line item or percentage of total estimate, this new feature allows your client to run phase-based invoices, track how much is left and provides job history reports with the click of a mouse.

NEW! Redesigned Forms and Customer History Panel

Easily view and review customer information (open invoices, outstanding balances, notes, etc.) in the new Customer History Panel. Plus, the improved Mac-like design helps give your clients a cleaner look to their customer data. The new transactions list allows you to refer to transactions easily while still in your Invoice and other forms.

IMPROVED! Improved Search

Access important information faster with improved search functionality. Search by name, transaction type, invoice amount, specific dates and more. Plus, your clients can quickly access previous or saved searches allowing them to work faster and increase productivity. Further refine results by setting filters and navigate easily to transactions, invoices and customers—from search results.

NEW! Default Bank Accounts

Save time and reduce errors by setting default accounts for key banking tasks. Your clients can now specify which bank accounts from which to pay certain vendors, expenses, etc.
