Manufacturing and industrial accounting software

Accounting Software for Manufacturing
parts, purchasing, inventory, and GL together

QBAI is built for companies where accounting cannot be separated from parts, vendors, inventory, jobs, sales orders, purchase orders, receiving, and customer order history.

Parts catalog

Vendor sources

Inventory locations

Sales by item

Why teams use it

Parts catalog for repeat buying

Store part number, description, OEM number, drawing number, manufacturer, manufacturer part number, preferred vendor, vendor part number, UOM, cost, and resale price.

Sales orders tied to purchasing

Create purchase orders from sales demand, receive items, track shipped and invoiced quantities, and keep customer order history searchable.

Inventory without forcing every company into it

Companies can use inventory when it matters, sell services or non-inventory items when it does not, and keep fulfillment rules aligned to item type.

FAQ

Does QBAI support units of measure?

Yes. QBAI supports reusable units of measure so companies can sell or buy by each, length, weight, case, hour, or another configured unit.

Yes. Item type controls workflow behavior so service and non-inventory companies are not forced into stock movements.

Can QBAI show customer order history?

Yes. QBAI includes customer order reporting across estimates, sales orders, invoices, and line items when the data is available.
