Multiple Entities (LLCs) in QuickBooks

[Alex M.]

Has anyone attempted to use one instance of Quickbooks for multiple entities, such as LLCs? I'm struggling to figure out how to best set this up, and do not want to purchase (or have to manage) two separate accounts.

Sounds like your using online version.  If you just buy desktop version "pro" you can have as many entities as you want.  quick books pro is expensive but once you buy it's good for several years as long as you don't have payroll, then you have to upgrade every 2 years.  I have a business partner still using 2000 and it does everything a real estate investor needs just icons aren't as pretty as newer version.  Plus desktop version is much faster and easier to cut checks,  and has better reports and more options to customize reports.  Hope this helps, good luck!
