QB POS V19 pro allowing sub-department

Thanks for posting to the Community, @RVpert.

I can help you add your sub-department to your QuickBooks Point of Sale v.19. You're correct that we'll have a setting elsewhere to set first.

By using your existing department, you can add a sub-department to your Inventory Department List.

Here's how:

1. Go to Inventory and then Department List.
2. Highlight the department by clicking once.
3. Click the I Want To drop-down and then select Copy.
4. A mini window will pop up. Click after the letter in the department name, then add a colon (:). Type the sub-department name with no spaces between the sub-department name and the colon.

Example: Computer:IBM

You can reference this YouTube video created by Raeann Salter: QuickBooks Point of Sale v19: Complete Training for Departments.

Additionally, you'll want to set up and run reports by department, take a look at this article for more insights: Customize and save a report in QuickBooks Point of Sale.
