Sounds preferences
Sounds preferences are where you set what sounds you want to play for certain tasks in QuickBooks.
If you don't like the sounds that play when you do certain tasks in QuickBooks, you can change them. QuickBooks
offers several sounds to choose from, and you can use your own sounds as well. Put any AIFF, WAV, or MP3 sound
in the Documents/QuickBooks/Sounds folder and it will be available for QuickBooks.
1 Choose QuickBooks > Preferences.
2 On the Preferences pane, select Sounds.
3 Set the preferences described below.
• Play Sounds. Check this if you want QuickBooks to play sounds when you use QuickBooks. If the checkbox is
selected, you can choose which sounds you want to hear.
• Save a record sound. Choose the sound you want to hear when you save a record, such as when you create an
invoice or update an estimate.

you've entered or a report.
