QuickBooks Online can't do sales orders, backorders, or multi-vendor POs — and QuickBooks Desktop is sunsetting. ClearOrder runs your entire order-to-cash cycle — estimates, sales orders, vendor POs, delivery proof, and invoicing — with your books synced to QuickBooks Online underneath.

ClearOrder follows the natural flow of your business — from the moment a builder sends an order to the day you get paid.
Purpose-built for residential construction material suppliers — lighting, cabinets, flooring, plumbing, electrical. Not adapted from generic software.
ClearOrder runs operations. QuickBooks Online runs accounting. Both stay in sync — so your accountant works in clean books while your operations team runs the day-to-day in ClearOrder.
In QuickBooks Desktop, selling 5 of 15 units on a sales order leaves 10 available — before you ship. QuickBooks Online has no sales order and no backorder, so that reserved quantity isn't tracked. That's how oversells and phantom demand creep in — and per Intuit's documentation, sales orders may not carry over in the migration.

If you're a construction supplier still on QuickBooks Desktop, you're running out of runway. Intuit has stopped selling new Desktop subscriptions. Existing versions sunset one by one. QuickBooks Desktop 2024 is the last version ever — support ends September 30, 2027.
Here's the part most migration tools get wrong: ClearOrder isn't your new accounting system — it's the operational platform your business runs on every day. Your operations live in ClearOrder. Your books live in modern QuickBooks Online underneath, kept in sync automatically. We move you off QuickBooks Desktop and set up both, so you can stop double-entering — and keep the operational depth QuickBooks Desktop gave you.
QuickBooks Online is built for accounting, not operations. The Sales Order transaction type doesn't exist in it. Multi-vendor PO consolidation isn't a native workflow — it requires custom reports and manual steps. Builder and lot tracking lives in fields that may not transfer. That's the whole point of the split: ClearOrder handles everything your business does, and your books sit cleanly underneath.
Intuit's official migration documentation lists Sales Orders, Estimates, custom templates, memorized transactions, projects, and attachments among the data types that don't transfer to QuickBooks Online. The 60-day migration window adds further pressure. ClearOrder is designed to help recover and preserve what Intuit's migration may leave behind.
You don't have to give up operational depth when you move to the cloud. QuickBooks Online Plus paired with ClearOrder gives your team a modern, browser-based way to run estimates, sales orders, vendor POs, deliveries, and invoicing — while QuickBooks Online handles your books.
We built ClearOrder by running it on our own supplier business — including the QuickBooks Desktop-to-Online sync, ghost SO cleanup, and data hygiene tools. We know firsthand what Intuit's migration may leave out, and we've built the tools to help find it and recover it for your operation.
