render partial on footer

Branding: Changed "Quickbooks" to QuickBooks (capitalized B) to match official branding.

Grammar:

warn_ru_sure: Changed "You sure?" to "Are you sure?"

label_no_customers: Refined to "There are no customers matching the search term(s)."

label_billing_error: Added punctuation and clarified the phrasing.

Cleanup: Removed unnecessary spaces inside quotes (e.g., " Make" and "Matching ").
