QuickBooks is an accounting software package developed and marketed by Intuit. QuickBooks products are geared mainly towards small and medium-sized businesses and offer on-premises accounting applications as well as cloud-based versions that accept business payments, manage and pay bills, and payroll functions.

Class feature/ Location feature of Quick Books to better inform about the owners of their business operations:-

Location Tracking and Class Tracking lets you track your income and expenses. You can use either one of them individually or both of them together.

Class tracking specifies a different class for each detail line of a transaction
Location tracking allows you to assign a location to an entire transaction
Job Costing: QuickBooks Online does not have a specific feature for this but we show you a work around using the Budgeting feature with Classes or Locations

Turning Classes and Locations On

Under Cogs Company Preferences > Company Settings > Company > Categories > Choose to switch on Classes and Locations or only one.
