QuickBooks is an application which helps your business to keep track of all the transactions, payroll information, budget, and other financial information. We can save the receipts in the QuickBooks database for future reference once your sale is done. QuickBooks suggests that a user must keep a record of all transactions if you no longer need any receipt you can delete any old receipts. We also suggest that you should void receipts instead of deleting them it can be a good idea. Voiding and changes transaction amounts to zero and marks the receipts as paid.
