4 QuickBooks Online Features To Enhance Your Workflow and Boost Your Business

As a business owner myself, I know that day-to-day life is anything but routine. Far too often, we find ourselves working in our businesses, rather than on our businesses.

At Certum Solutions, we want to do the heavy lifting for you, providing solutions that make your life easier and grow and scale your business based on your particular needs. 

Helping us in this mission is Intuit’s consistent rollout of new and enhanced QuickBooks Online (QBO) features. When you combine these software capabilities with our team’s insights and expertise, you’ll get powerful solutions to work more efficiently and boost your business.

The latest quartet of QBO features does just that, helping you track your team’s progress and performance, automate the workflow experience, digitize the document process, and get access to hundreds of apps to alleviate your day-to-day grind.

Here is more about all of these features, which our Certum team can implement into your business for greater efficiency and growth.

Feature #1: Time Tracking Transparency – You are in Control

I learned long ago that Certum Solutions is only as strong as our entire team’s fulfillment, and I’m so proud of our team’s dedication to improving your lives and your businesses.

One enhancement that helps do the same is the time tracking feature packed inside QBO. With more and more businesses working remotely, it’s as important as ever to be able to track your team’s commitment and performance from anywhere, any time. Time tracking does just that, giving you one convenient place to look over, and edit, your team’s timesheets.

Your staff simply enters their time right into QBO, and you have everything at your fingertips. This works with QuickBooks Online Essentials, Plus, and Advanced.

Feature #2: Set Personalized Reminders to Automate the Workflow Experience

As business owners, there is no way we can keep our head on straight and get everything done in an efficient manner without setting up reminders. For many of us, this may be an alarm clock, a calendar entry, or even something scribbled on a piece of paper or sticky note.

With custom reminders inside the workflows section of QuickBooks Online Advanced, you can actually personalize reminders to automate the workflow experience. So, whether it’s customizing emails, tapping into the task manager inside Advanced, or sending push notifications, you can decide when, and to whom, these messages go out. In doing so, you can make sure tasks such as collecting payments or completing an important stage of a project get done on time.

To see how custom reminders will look, check out the image below.

Feature #3: Digitize the Document Process With DocuSign

Continuing with the remote working theme that seems here to stay, you’ll need a digital process for signing and sending over documents online. Look no further than the powerful integration of DocuSign and QuickBooks Online Advanced.

Now, you can simply access DocuSign’s eSignature Connector by QuickBooks to manage the entire document process digitally. This allows you to facilitate the client acquisition process, as well as gain more confidence in getting paid on time, without worrying about a paper trail.

Below is a picture of what DocuSign will look like in Advanced.

Feature #4: Grow Your Business Through the Power of QuickBooks Enterprise

At Certum Solutions, our team strives to find you solutions that scale with your business and meet your everyday needs. Oftentimes, QuickBooks Enterprise does just that. 

Whether you’re looking to minimize errors, take control of your financial data to unlock key strategies, or boost automation, QuickBooks Enterprise and Certum Solutions has you covered. In addition, you can tap into more than 200 apps to improve all areas of your business, helping you save a lot of time and feel a lot less stressed. And, of course, our Certum team will find the apps that best suit your particular business.
