Which file type is the default for shared documents in QuickBooks Online?

In QuickBooks Online, the default file type for shared documents is set to "Other." This category encompasses a wide range of document types that don’t fall specifically into the conventional categories like invoices, receipts, or statements. When users share documents through QuickBooks Online, they often need to upload various supporting documentation or files that support their transactions or accounting practices, which can be outside the standard offerings.

The classification of documents under "Other" allows for greater flexibility in handling various types of files, whether they're contracts, agreements, or miscellaneous documents that provide essential context or information for accounting purposes. This approach supports the collaborative nature of QuickBooks Online, where multiple users may need to access files that are not solely defined by standard financial documents. Utilizing "Other" as a default guarantees that users can share relevant and necessary documentation that may not fit into narrower categories.
