Account Balances on Home Page

Hi there, lhauser. I can show you how to customize your home page in QuickBooks Desktop.

The option to change the accounts shown is unavailable in QBDT. However, you can change the Windows display in your account for you to remove some accounts that you don't want to include.

Here's how:

1. On the top menu bar, click View.
2. Select Open window list.
3. Click View again, then click Left Icon Bar.
4. On the left side of your home page. Click View Balances.
5. Tick Customize view balances. 
6. Select any account you want to add, then tap OK.

I've also added a couple of screenshots for your visual reference.

Furthermore, you can refer to this article for detailed steps on how to customize your displays in QBDT: Customize your QuickBooks display

If you still have concerns about managing your home page. Comment on the post, I'm always here to help.

Thanks for sharing that info. It makes no sense to me that I cannot choose which accounts I want to view. No more than QB doing away with the Scan feature as a method of attaching documents.

I followed your steps but now my layout changed. How do I get it back to the way it was before? I cannot see my backup status from this view, and I lost the top bar

Thanks....

I googled it and got it back to "normal"

Thanks!

I had already changed back to the top. When I did that, everything went back to normal.

Thanks!
