Payee not showing in reconciliation

Hi, apologies if this is the wrong board. First post. 

I want to do a rec, but the payee column is not showing. There are a lot of payments with the same amounts so I need the payee showing to know what I'm checking is correct. 

I've gone into the cog within the rec and the payee  column is ticked. 

Any ideas about how I can get it to show please?

Many thanks 

Cathy

Hi there, @marual.

 

Let's create a sample company file and reconcile your account from there. This way, we can check if this issue is caused by data problems in your company file. 

 

To create a sample company file in your QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT), you can follow these steps:

  1. Go to the File menu.
  2. Select New company.
  3. Choose Express Start.
  4. Follow the onscreen steps to finish the setup. 

For more details, you can read this article: Create a QuickBooks Desktop Company File

 

If you're able to see the payee when reconciling your account via a sample file, then we'll need to run the Verify and Rebuild Data utility tool. This will resolve minor data issues in your company file.

 

However, if the issue persists, I recommend performing a clean install. This will fix the data problem in your company file.

 

Also, I'm adding these great resources that can guide you in reconciling your account in QBDT:
