It seems all quickbooks wants to give me when searching for Purchase orders is *open* purchase orders; How do I view a Purchase Order list report?

I'm here to share some information about handling purchase orders in QuickBooks online, @mg-allc.

QuickBooks Online offers a variety of reports for managing purchase orders. These include

• Open Purchase Order List - This report shows POs grouped by vendor.
• Open Purchase Order Detail - This report shows POs grouped and their details including total, received, and balance quantities and amounts.
• Transaction List by Vendor - This report shows all transactions grouped by vendor. You can customize this report to show only specific transactions like Purchase Orders.

 Here's how to run a report:

1. Go to Reports.
2. Under Expenses and vendors, choose your preferred report (Open Purchase Order List, Open Purchase Order Detail, or Transaction List by Vendor).
3. Filter the dates and other information by clicking the Customize button.
4. Hit Run report.

Also, I got these articles to learn more about managing reports in QuickBooks Online:

• Memorize reports
• Customize Reports and Email

Should you have any additional inquiries, feel free to inform me. I'm here with a willingness to offer further help. Wishing you a fantastic day ahead.

This does not address my issue!

I am trying to see *ALL* Purchase Orders, not just *Open* purchase orders

meaning Purchase Orders that are "Closed" are what I am trying to see in a report

I’ve got other steps we can take in accessing your purchase orders (PO) in QuickBooks Online (QBO), mg-allc.

To locate your purchase order transactions, we can run a Transaction List by Vendor report. Then, we can customize this to only show PO in any status. Please follow the steps below to start:

1. Go to the Reports menu and look for Transaction List by Vendor report.
2. Click the Customize button.
   
3. Navigate to the Row/Columns section and mark check the PO Status column.
4. In the Filter dropdown, mark check the Transaction Type and filter it to Purchase Order.
5. Then, click the Run report.
   

Additionally, I'll share the following article with you so you can learn how to save the current report customization settings in QBO: Memorize reports in QuickBooks Online.

This is what we were looking for.  It would also be very helpful if we could see which customer and/or project in the report columns too.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts about making the customer/project visible in the report column, JKP2. I'm here to help you sort this out.

Currently, in QuickBooks Online (QBO) the customer/project isn't visible in the Transaction list by vendor. However, if you want to make this visible in the report columns, you can go to the Transaction list with splits report. Also, in this report all of the Purchase order transactions will appear. Please follow the steps below to show the customer/project in the report columns.

1. Go to the Reports tab on the left side of the screen.
2. Click the Find report by name, then search for the Transaction list with splits.
   
3. Hit the Customize option at the upper right side of your account.
   
4. Under the Select and reorder columns, click the Customer and Vendor.
5. Choose Run report below the screen.
