It feels a little odd to consider the in-app calculator within QuickBooks a “hidden feature”, but in a recent QB Power Hour with Hector Garcia, he mentioned that it’s the one feature that clients are most stunned and enthused by… so I figured I should mention it here as well so that my own clients (and maybe colleagues) can make use of it if they’re not already aware of its power or existence.

In particular, I think that folks may not know the same calculator functions that exist in QB Desktop also exist in QB Online, since that wasn’t always the case. But it does support not only simple calculations, but also order of operations punctuation, such as the ability to calculate quantities in parentheses before any other arithmetic.

Try it out!
