Hi YLMC Creative,

 

It's vital you're able to customize the width on your QuickReport. Rest assured, I'll be happy to give you a hand with this so you can continue managing your business with peace of mind. 

 

QuickBooks is designed to help save you time and I'd like for you to enjoy that benefit. Based on what you've described, I'd recommend clearing cache and cookies on your browser as a method of troubleshooting. Clearing cache and cookies helps fix most minor issues the site may be having. Here's an article that shows you how to do that: How to clear cache and cookies. I encourage you to try this out and let me know what happens when you try editing the columns again. 

 

I'll be one message away in case you need further assistance.

Hello @JamesM4 

Thank you for the tip, but unfortunately that did not resolve the issue. Any other advice?

This isn't the greatest solution to your problem, but you can export the report to Excel. Once there, you can edit the column widths. It isn't necessary to have all of the data on your screen before exporting; the full entry will appear in Excel even if it is truncated on the report as it appears in QBO. 


Hi there dkitzmiller,

 

Thank you for sharing your solution with the Community.  This will make it possible to take a QuickBooks report and modify the column width for printing. This can be accomplished by clicking on the Export Icon located beside the Printer, then selecting Export to Excel. Once in Excel, you can edit the column with as well as other information to personalize the view to print.
