What is the minimum subscription level required for a client to manage inventory in QuickBooks Online?

To manage inventory in QuickBooks Online, the subscription level must be at least QuickBooks Online Plus. This version includes the essential features for small to medium businesses, including the ability to track inventory, create purchase orders, and manage stock levels. The inventory management features are critical for businesses that need to keep track of their inventory on hand and their cost of goods sold.

The other subscription levels do not offer comprehensive inventory management capabilities. For example, QuickBooks Online Simple Start includes basic features suitable for sole proprietors but lacks inventory tracking. QuickBooks Online Essentials allows for bill management and client invoicing but still does not include the advanced inventory features necessary for effective inventory control. QuickBooks Online Advanced offers additional features and support but is not the minimum level required for inventory management. Thus, QuickBooks Online Plus is the correct and minimum subscription level needed for managing inventory effectively.
