Countdown to QuickBooks Connect 2019 - Part 7

by

Countdown to QuickBooks Connect with us, the 'big show' less than 2-weeks away. We are continuing to profile sponsors who make it possible for you to 'connect' with so many of the featured products that work with QuickBooks, or provide related services you will find beneficial to your practice or clients.

TSheets by QuickBooks

TSheets by QuickBooks is not only the number one rated and requested time tracking and scheduling software in the Intuit ecosystem, it’s the # 1 employee-rated and requested time tracking & scheduling software on the planet. Thousands of companies in over 100 countries trust TSheets technology.

TSheets is the only time tracker that works directly inside QuickBooks Online! Track accurate-to-the-second time in TSheets, then manage, edit, and approve employee time-cards for invoicing or payroll inside QBO.

But TSheets also works with QuickBooks Desktop products. Your employees can easily record their time with a variety of Apps, browser login, kiosk, and social Apps, then review and approve the employee time, and with the click download the time into QuickBooks Desktop for billing and payroll purposes. Paper time sheets, punch-clock cards, and best guess of who worked when, where, on what, and for how long will be a thing of the past with TSheets tracking employee time, work and productivity.

By the way, did you know that TSheets offers something called 'Geofencing' technology, with this feature an employee will be reminded on their TSheets App to either clock-in or clock-out as soon as they cross the geoboundary surrounding their designated worksite.  And TSheets is also 'bilingual', if an employee has their smartphone's default language set to Spanish (when using an Android device at present, coming soon to iOS), the TSheets app will automatically translate it.

Remember, TSheets loves QuickBooks ProAdvisors... you can work with TSheets to help small businesses save time and money while increasing  your billable time by becoming a TSheetsPro. Be sure to ask the TSheets Team when you stop by their booth.

So, if you want to find out why TSheets by QuickBooks is the # 1 rated time tracking software on the planet, just visit their booth at QuickBooks Connect.

SOS Inventory

SOS Inventory is a complete inventory, order management and manufacturing solution featuring tight integration with QuickBooks Online. SOS was built for QuickBooks Online from the ground up and was the very first inventory software to connect to QBO. SOS has a new and modern looking graphical interface, performance enhancements and improved manufacturing capabilities including process manufacturing.

SOS covers the entire life-cycle or your inventory-based or light-manufacturing business. SOS makes it easy to convert raw materials into finished goods and tracking work-in-progress. With SOS you can track serial numbers and lots/batches and sync them to QuickBooks Online. SOS allows you to receive, ship out of, and transfer stock within one, or any number of business locations. You can set customer-unique pricing and vendor-specific costs, add custom fields to track specific data you need, and much more.

SOS offers users two workflows. While most applications ‘take over’ key areas related to inventory when they are connected to QuickBooks Online, SOS is different. One workflow permits QBO users to continue to process most transactions normally within QBO, then SOS reads those transactions and generates the related SOS records automatically. The second, and more common workflow has day-to-day operations like sales, purchasing, shipping and manufacturing entered into SOS which synchronizes them QBO so that your financial data is up-to-date.

One of the reasons you look for an inventory or manufacturing plug-in App for QuickBooks is the ability to handle complex items like Assemblies. In SOS, an assembly is the output associated with turning raw materials into one or more finished goods, based on a bill of materials (BOM). You can create a bill of materials (BOM) that specifies the components of the assembly, and then you process transactions that build a specific number of the assemblies as of a certain date. SOS makes it easy for your to keep track of what's happening in your manufacturing work in progress no matter how complex the manufacturing life-cycle.

So, if this sounds like the software-as-a-service Inventory App you have been needing for QBO be sure to stop by the SOS booth at QuickBooks Connect.
