QuickBooks Certified User (QBCU) Practice Exam

Which option best describes how you enable time tracking in QuickBooks?

Time and Expense settings in Payroll Center

Edit > Preferences, Time and Expense

Preferences > Time Tracking

Edit>Preferences, Time and Expense icon, Company Preferences tab

Time tracking is turned on from the QuickBooks Desktop Preferences, specifically under Time & Expenses on the Company Preferences tab. You open it by choosing Edit, then Preferences, click the Time & Expenses icon, and go to the Company Preferences tab. There you enable time tracking so hours entered by employees or contractors can be recorded, assigned to customers and jobs, and used for invoicing or payroll as configured.

This path is the correct one because it points to the exact place QuickBooks uses to enable and configure time-tracking features. Other options either point to the wrong area (Payroll Center) or omit the necessary Company Preferences tab, or describe a path that isn’t how you access these settings.
