<p class="Help-Text">By default, these documents are sent to QuickBooks Desktop in the summarized format. This streamlines Financial Exchange and presents data in a concise format in QuickBooks Desktop. In most cases, sending summarized data is the most efficient way to transfer data. However, you may wish to send detailed documents to your financial software if you need or want:</p>

|
<ul>

<li class="p-Help-Bulleted" style="margin-left: -20px;">

<p class="Help-Bulleted">The ability to print reports or statements in QuickBooks Desktop showing item descriptions for sales and receiving documents (e.g. the specific items sold or received).</p>

<li class="p-Help-Bulleted" style="margin-left: -20px;">
|
|
<p class="Help-Bulleted">Certain documents are consolidated by day. For example, all receipts paid by cash, credit card, debit card, and gift card/certificate for a particular day are consolidated and sent to QuickBooks Desktop as a single receipt for the total amount of sales.</p>

|
<li class="p-Help-Bulleted" style="margin-left: -20px;">
|
|
<p class="Help-Bulleted">Sales documents do not list individual items. Instead, items are consolidated by tax code. For example, if you have a tax code called "Tax," the total amount of all items sold on a document that belong to that tax code are listed under an item called "POS Tax Sales."</p>

<p class="Help-Heading-2">Inactive Items Created in QuickBooks Desktop for Detailed Exchanges</p>
|
|
<p class="Help-Text">When using detailed item posting, Point of Sale creates an inactive, non-inventory item in QuickBooks Desktop for each item sold or received on Point of Sale documents sent to QuickBooks Desktop. It is these inactive items that are listed on the QuickBooks Desktop documents created during Financial Exchanges.</p>
|
|
<p class="Help-Text">An item is only created once. Subsequent appearances of the item on sent documents will not create another inactive QuickBooks Desktop item. These items are made inactive, non-inventory items so that they dont show up in your default QuickBooks Desktop item list view. This is because they are tracked in Point of Sale, not in QuickBooks Desktop, and you should not use them in QuickBooks Desktop for other purposes or edit them. These items are meant to be used solely for the purpose of detailed Financial Exchanges.</p>
|
|
<p class="Help-Text"> </p>
|
|
<p class="Help-Note"><font class="hcp2">Note: Item List Limit in QuickBooks.</font> If you have a large inventory, these inactive items may cause you to reach the maximum number of items allowed in QuickBooks Desktop. See the <a href="qbdata11.htm">Item List Limit in QuickBooks</a> topic for more information.</p>
