QBO is the books Do not post invoices hereAdvisors get invoices and receipts from QuickBooks, not from Board Portal, Quote, or Score. Certification is billed per student as Welding Certification Testing & Evaluation (TXHSWS). Build-Off is billed per team as Build-Off Competition Entry & Evaluation (TXHSWS) — L4 heads, 1–4 = 1 team. This page accepts a QBO or treasurer CSV and shows variance. It does not create products or email bills.

No CSV loaded. Columns are whatever the export contains — this desk will not invent budget or actual figures.
