Francesca -most likely. I don’t work with the Mac version. It is far behind the Windows version, but they have been working on getting it closer. Some things may never get there, though.

I’m guessing this is one of the MANY fetures that isn’t available in the MAC version of Quickbooks…

There is a bug in this program for Enterprise users that have items numbering in the thousands. When you use the Copy Down feature, you receive an error message that there is Inadequate Memory to complete this operation. There is no cancel option and your computer becomes locked up in a cycle of error messages. It is necessary to reboot the server when this happens. It is a known bug at QuickBooks, but I spent two hours on the phone with them before they asked the right person who admitted this.

I am running the Canadian version, which according to QB support here in Canada,this feature isn’t available. That’s whats funny about this whole situation.I accessed and used it once, then the option under “lists” just never came up again.
Guess it was a one time fluke.
Thanks for your reply, I was just hoping that I has missed a step or something.
Have a great day!

Lisa, I’m not clear on whether you are running the Canadian or US version. I don’t have the most current Canadian version so I can’t comment directly on that. In the US version you can access it by selecting “Lists” and then “Add/Edit Multiple List Entries” from that menu.

This is an awesome feature. I used it last week.
I’m in Canada and apparently this feature is not available in the Canadian version.
Which brings me to my question. How did I access this feature and consequently use it last week? Is there some kind of link on this site that I’m missing or is the only way to access this thorough the Lists menu in the program?
Would dearly love to be able to use this all the time.
Thanks,
Lisa

Elizabeth, when you are looking at the item list, there should be an Excel button at the bottom. You can export using that. You also have the IIF export in File/Utilities/Export, but you probably wont’ find that as useful.

I really like the multiple list editing feature, I do wish however, I could copy and Paste TO Excel as well as FROM Excel. The scrolling in the list is slow while in the edit mode, and I would also like to be able to use the data in the custom fields sorted by filter to create reports. Perhaps there is a way to export this that I have not yet figured out?

Merging is a complicated process on it’s own, mass merging would really be complicated.

Charlie,

Thanks for all you do! You explain things so well.

I was hoping that this new spreadheet feature would let us copy and paste the name field to correct duplicates. It lets you correct the name, but then it won’t let you “merge” in mass. A huge disappointment. This is a big problem in some clients. Especially clients that import credit card data. They may have Wal-mart set up 15 times.
