How do I get a schedule c?

Hello there, @che85mor.

You're unable to get a Schedule C form directly in QuickBooks Online (QBO). But, you can run a Profit and Loss (P&L) report so you can have all the information you need to generate one. Let me share further insights about this.

The Schedule C form allows you to report the income you've generated or lost in your business to the IRS. If you've organized your chart of accounts to match schedule C, the P&L report will provide you with the data you need.

To run a Profit and Loss (P&L) report, here's how:

1. Go to Business overview, then select Reports, or go to Reports.
2. In the Find report by the name search bar, type in Profit and Loss, and select it to open.
3. Click the Customize button to focus on the details that matter to you the most.

This is my first tax year since being forced to transition from desktop QB to the online version. Generating a Schedule C is one of the few things I really need it to do. Don’t see how a P&L is easily translatable? What a huge letdown. 

This is such a bad oversight with QB online. QB Desktop was so much better!
