    Hi klow,

    We are experiencing some issues with the Reports tab at the moment.

    Our engineer team is aware of this and are currently working on a fix.

    In the mean time, as a work-around you can try going into the search bar at the top right corner of Quickbooks and search for the type of report you're looking for.

    For example, if you wanted a Profit and Loss report, click into the search bar and type in Profit and Loss, select the correct report and it should come up for you without any issues.

    Kristian.

    Hi Kristian,

    Typing "Profit and Loss" in the Search function does not work as per screenshot below.

    Today is the first time I've experienced any issues using the report option, so I was glad to find QuickBooks was aware of a problem, addressing it, and offering a workaround. However; I was disappointed that "the search option" workaround, QuickBooks directed users to use, gave me the same blank white screen as when selecting any of the individual reports as before.

     

    I wonder if the problem I'm experiencing is the same as everyone else or if mine is something new?

      Hi Kimberlie1, 

       

      Thanks for joining this conversation. A browser-related issue is a possible reason I'm seeing as to why you're getting a blank white screen on your end. 

       

      Let's use an incognito or a private browser to confirm the issue. Open any browser, then follow these shortcut keys to use an incognito window: 

       

      • Chrome simply press Ctrl + Shift + N.
      • Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer, press Ctrl + Shift + P.
      • Safari, press Command + Shift + N. Make sure you're using the latest version.

       

      Check to see if you can select any of the individual reports without getting the white blank screen. Then, follow the steps to clear your browsing data to remove unwanted files that are causing the error. 

       

      Otherwise, try using another supported, up-to-date browser. 

       

      For future reference, read through this article and learn about customizing your report to view the specific data you want to appear: Customise reports in QuickBooks Online.

       

      Let me know if you need further assistance. I'm here to help you some more.

      HI Kimberlie1,

       

      As your issue seems to be on the desktop app, please could you follow the instructions in this updating the desktop app article to see if there are any updates available that need to be manually updated? 

       

      Thank you, 

      Georgia

        I am having the same issue from the desktop QB app. I go to reports and get a white screen for some (not all). My QB app and IOS are up to date.

        When I login to QB on my browser the reports load just fine. I want to be able to use the app and not have to login from a browser each time I open QB.

        The reports function is a joke.  Too many bugs to describe.  Does QB know reports dont work?  Are they working on it.  I had 5 sessions with support yesterday.  No resolution.   If not I am done with QBO.

        We don't want to cause you any inconvenience. Please know that helping you is our top priority, @johanQ.

         

        Please be advised that are some filters or report options are exclusive to certain reports. The option to set or apply it to all reports would be a great addition to the current features that we have, so I'll take note of it.

         

        I also encourage you to leave the feedback from within the product. Here are the steps:

         

        1. Go to the Gear icon and select Feedback.
        2. Provide your product suggestion. 
        3. Click on Next to submit feedback.

         

        You can check out this article for more information about providing feedback to make the program better: How do I submit feedback?.

         

        See this article for more information about running and customising your reports: Customise reports in QuickBooks Online.

         

        Once done, you can save the report with the filters you set: Memorise reports in QuickBooks Online. It'll save your time when generating this report in the future. 

         

        Let me know if you need further help with your reports or anything else. I'm always here to help. Have a great rest of the day!
