Shipping Costs / COGS / Importing / HELP! gmanob 07-19-2006

I have two questions for you QB experts.

1. I have already imported my orders into Quickbooks which include the
COGS. However, I have to do a separate import (because of limitations
of the software I am using) of my shipping costs. Would it be best to
put these in a "shipping cost" COGS account as a sub account of the
COGS account?

2. Because I am importing the shipping costs separately I need to
somehow assign them to the specific order they go with. How can I do
this? Use the customer name or customer number in some way?

Thanks for any help!!!

Orders? As in purchase orders and bills from you to your vendors?

Orders? As in invoices and sales orders from your customers to you?


In any case, for SlowBooks to correctly place all the hunks of
information around so all the reports are correct, you are going to have
to combine those two separate sets of data into a single one before you
import. If you don't something is always going to be wrong on some report.
