I am trying to figure out how to run a report with total sales by vendor by state in Quickbooks online. It seems impossible. Has anyone run this report? Can you provide the setup you used?

Hi there, @Aquaman1.

 

Currently, the report to filter it by state is unavailable. Although, the report by vendor in QuickBooks Online is available. I'd be glad to show you how to do that.

 

  1. Go to the Reports menu and enter "Transaction List by Vendor" in the text box.
  2. Select the date range of the transactions you want to show in the report.
  3. Click the Run report button.

 

You can also customize the report to show other fields such as the memo, shipment via freight or sea, or the account. For more details, you may check out this article: Customize reports in QuickBooks Online.

 

I've added an article for your future reference about saving your customized report: Memorize reports in QuickBooks Online. This will help you save your time doing customization again.

 

I'll be here if you have other questions or concerns. Just tag my name in the comment section below. Take care.

Is there a way to have a report formatted to provide the state detail or is the online program just unable to do it. If so, what other QB versions would allow it?

I’ve come to show to you how to generate a report that contains state detail, @Aquaman1.


I appreciate your time getting in touch with us again. There are some features and functions in QuickBooks Online we can use to achieve this.


You can run Sales by Location Detail report. This report allows you to pull up the information you need. Before that, we’ll have to make sure the Location tracking feature is turned on. It enables you to categorize data from different locations, offices, regions, outlets, or departments every time you create a transaction like an invoice, sales receipt and etc.


Here’s how you do it:

 

  1. Select the Gear icon and choose Account and Settings.
  2. In the Advanced tab, go to Categories and select the edit (Pencil) icon.
  3. Mark the Track locations.
  4. Select Save, then Done.


Then, you'll have to add a location you want to track and reflect in your report. Please follow these steps:

 

  1. Go back to the Gear icon and choose All Lists.
  2. Choose Locations.
  3. Click the New button.
  4. Enter the location, then choose and customize the following options, if needed.
    • Is sub-location
    • This location has a different title for sales forms.
    • This location has a different company name when communicating with customers.
    • This location has a different address where customers contact me or send payments.
    • This location has a different email address for communicating with customers.
    • This location has a different phone number where customers phone me.
  5. Press Save.


You can refer to this article to learn more about the process of tracking location in QBO. Once done, you're all set to running the Sales by Location Detail report. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Reports menu.
  2. Enter/select Sales by Location Detail in the search box.
  3. Click Customize to filter the necessary details and make sure Rows/Columns is set to Location.
  4. Hit Run report to display the desired information.
