Expense Management in QBO Course Description 

When it comes to managing employee credit cards and approval workflows in QuickBooks Online (QBO) and other expense management workflows, there are several options and best practices.

While QBO offers built-in features for receipt management and online bill pay to handle accounts payable, managing employee expenses requires additional considerations. 

Encouraging employees to capture and upload expense receipts directly into QBO eliminates the need for manual data entry, but it’s important to ensure that employees categorize expenses accurately to maintain proper reporting.

When your employees all have their own corporate credit cards, QBO’s banking and reconciling gets unwieldy unless you strategize.

It’s also important to establish cost controls by defining spending limits for each employee based on their role and responsibilities within the organization, even where they are allowed to purchase. 

When your company grows to more than a handful of employees, it’s time to implement approval workflows, ensuring that expenses are reviewed and authorized before payment. While QuickBooks Online Advanced allows you to do this, uses of other versions have to turn to third-party expense management.

In this webinar, Dan DeLong and Carrie Kahn of Complete Business Group and School of Bookkeeping will discuss QuickBooks Online’s options for tracking all these scenarios, and how to identify the signs  that you’re ready to move beyond QBO’s built-in features to implement a third-party accounts payable solution.
