Apple Mac2014 - Budgets (BUD); Class List (CLASS)

QuickBooks for Mac 2014 User’s Guide 238
EXTRA
Identifies an account as one of the special balance sheet accounts that QuickBooks
automatically creates when the need for the account arises. If you are creating an import
file, use one of these keywords to identify the account:
OPENBAL—Opening Balance Equity
RETEARNINGS—Retained Earnings
SALESTAX—Sales Tax Payable
UNDEPOSIT—Undeposited Funds
Budgets (BUD)
Import and export files can contain complete information about your budgets. The keyword for a budget is BUD.
ACCNT
(Required) The name of the account to which this budget applies. If the account is a
subaccount, the account's name includes the names of the parent accounts, beginning with
the highest level account. If you are creating an import file, use a colon (:) to separate
subaccount names.
PERIOD
A keyword that identifies the time intervals within the budget. Because QuickBooks only
allows one month intervals in a budget, an export file always shows the keyword MONTH. If
you are creating an import file, type MONTH.
AMOUNT
(Required) The budget amounts. Because a QuickBooks budget covers an entire year, an
export file shows 12 amounts, one for each month of the year. If you are creating an import
file, each month's amount must have its own column.
STARTDATE
The starting date of the budget. If you are creating an import file, enter the date in
MM/DD/YY format. For example, 1/30/04.
CLASS
The name of the class that the budget applies to. If the class is a subclass, the class name
includes the names of the parent classes, beginning with the highest level class. If you are
creating an import file, use a colon (:) to separate subclass names.
CUSTOMER
The customer that the budget applies to. If you are applying the budget to a specific job for
the customer, the customer name includes the job name. The customer's name comes first,
then a colon (:), and then the job name.
Class list (CLASS)
Import and export files can contain the list of classes you use in QuickBooks. The keyword for the Class list is
CLASS.
NAME
(Required) The name of the class. If the class is a subclass of another class, the name includes
the name of the parent classes, beginning with the highest level class. If you are creating an
import file, use a colon (:) to separate subclass names.
TIMESTAMP
(Export files only) A unique number that identifies the company file from which you exported
the Class list.
REFNUM
(Export files only) A unique number that identifies an entry in the list.
