We track income and expense by location. Can I change the name of a location?

In QuickBooks Online, we can change the name of a location at any time, Rpicheny. I'll help you edit the locations so you can track your transactions with your desired locations.
 

To start,  please know that changing the location name in QuickBooks will affect all past, present, and future transactions associated with that location. Furthermore, this change will also be reflected in financial reports that utilize location data.
 

Rest assured, all your data will remain accurate after you change the location name. Here are the steps you can follow to update your location in QuickBooks:
 

  1. Navigate to Settings by clicking the Gear icon, and select All lists.
