How to change Chat of Accounts description language from French to English?

Hi pgparish,


The Chart of Accounts (COA) language is determined when the company is created, depending on the specified region or industry. The language display issue is usually browser-related.

 

It is possible that the browser's language setting forces the French display even though QuickBooks Online's Setting is set to English.

To resolve this, you can access QuickBooks Online using a browser already set to English. Alternatively, you can update your browser's language settings to English.


For Chrome:

  1. Click the three-dot menu icon () in the top-right corner and select Settings.
  2. Navigate to the Languages menu.
  3. Set the language preference to English.


The steps may differ for other browsers, but you can easily look up the process online.
