Online version-Chart of Accounts Editing "Type"

I have an online version of QB.  How do I change the "type" of account in my chart of accounts?  I mistakenly set up three income accounts under "Bank".  As a result, those accounts don't show up on my P&L report.  I want to change the type to Income--not banking. How do I do that?

Online version-Chart of Accounts Editing "Type"

I'll walk you through how to edit an account's information, Susan9864. 

 

Also, changing the type or detail type of an account can affect our accounting and reporting so I suggest reaching out to an accountant to help us modifying accounts. 

 

Here's how we can edit an account:

  1. From the Accounting menu, select Chart of Accounts
  2. Let's look for the account and click the drop-down arrow beside View register.
  3. Select Edit.
  4. Change the account type and then click Save and Close
  5. Confirm to make the changes by clicking Yes.

You can also look into these articles to know more about our Chart of Accounts:

I'll be around if there's anything else you need help with. Stay safe!
