My P/L on a cash and accrual basis used to differ by the balance of my A/R. This is no longer the case. Is this a glitch in this system?

Hello there, Admin452.

 

Let's go through some troubleshooting steps to resolve this uncommon issue and ensure your Profit and Loss report correctly reflects the expected differences between cash and accrual accounting, especially with your Accounts Receivable (A/R) balance. 

 

First, let's refresh your browser to reload the page and eliminate any minor issues or cached data that might be causing the problem.

 

Second, log out of your QuickBooks Online account and then sign back in. Then, run the Profit and Loss report to check if the cash and accrual methods now show the expected differences in your Accounts Receivable (A/R) balances. This simple step can refresh your session and help fix any temporary browser-related issues. Starting a new session ensures the system establishes a stable connection.


If the problem continues, try accessing your QuickBooks account using a private or incognito browser. This can bypass any browser extensions, cookies, or cached files that might be creating conflicts.


You might also consider switching to a different supported browser, such as Google Chrome, which could improve compatibility and enhance performance.
