no inventory
i set up my company to track inventory but have decided I don't have a big enough one to bother tracking. How can I NOT use inventory? Do I have to set up a new company file?

inventory is like pregnancy. you either have inventory or you don't. if you have already set up some, leave the file alone and sell your inventory. you don't necessarily have to bring in more.

But I want to be able to invoice products for people, and when I go to do that and type in an item, it tells me there is none in inventory, backorderes it

if you're selling it, don't you have to have it to sell? where does this item come from?

If you have products to sell on the shelf, then those should be inventory
QB uses items to sell things, either an inventory item, or a non inventory item you use as a generic item. If you go this route you check mark the statement on the item screen that says it is used in an assembly or for sale and select the COGS expense account and an income account
If you turn off inventory in preferences, that does not remove the inventory you have, sell what you have, insure the value of the last item sold is zero, and make it inactive
If I've helped, mark it solved.
