Ask Me Anything with Product Expert, Danae

I uploaded my Chart of Accounts and have the QB accounts still showing.  Is there a way to remove them all at once or do I need to do them one at a time?

I will be using account numbers and when they were uploaded the account number appears before the account name.  Is there a way to remove this?

Hi @Colleen2024 

QuickBooks Online has starting accounts to begin with, some are default accounts and can't be removed, but some can be made inactive and others you can merge. you can check out this resource for more details https://quickbooks.intuit.com/learn-support/en-us/accounting-method-preference/manage-default-and-sp...
There isn't a way to bulk remove them, you are correct that it would be individually.

@Colleen2024 
Yes there is a setting for using account numbers and you can disable it. Follow the steps in this article, but simply disable it instead of enabling it. https://quickbooks.intuit.com/learn-support/en-us/chart-of-accounts/use-account-numbers-in-your-char...

If the numbers were part of the name when imported they might need to be edited individually to remove the numbers.

Thanks, Colleen, for the question
