Allow me to share to some information about the dashboard sales and the P&L widgets in QuickBooks Online.
The dashboard sales do not necessarily match the P&L widget in QuickBooks Online. The sales widget only shows all the sales transactions, like sales receipts, invoices, credit memos, and other sales activities. While the Profit and Loss contain all of the sales transactions and non-sales transactions like journal entries and deposits.
What is point of being able view a chart of sales for the last three months, six months... but not having the option to see sales for last year, as is available in the P&L widget.
I’m not commenting on the figures not matching, I’m commenting that several the dropdown options are pointless and the menu is lacking other options that would be useful. Just ask the person who set up the P&L widget what they think.
We appreciate your thoughts about the options on the date drop-down menu for the Sales widget, Kenster1234.
