Been using QuickBooks Online for tracking all my custom cabinet builds and it's been a nightmare this year. Paid $300 for the premium plan thinking it'd handle the material costs for oak plywood and pocket hole joinery better, but nope, keeps double-counting my Festool tool expenses. Anyone else dealing with this crap?

same here, feels like it's designed to screw over small shops like ours.

PSA: audit your entries monthly or you'll overpay taxes.

try xero instead, way better for trade invoicing.

wave apps is cheaper and handles basics fine for solo guys.
