Bills appear with negative value

I forgot to write it, but it is Quickbooks Desktop Enterprise 2024, with the latest update.

I appreciate your thoroughness in sharing detailed information and the screenshot, Danila. Let's focus on finding a solution to ensure your bills are accurately represented.

In QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT), to display bills as positive amounts and bill payments as negative amounts, set your reports configured to show the summary in a balanced detail format. This involves customizing your reports to reflect the desired presentation of financial data.

For detailed steps, here's how:

1. Navigate to the Vendor menu.
2. Select Vendor Center.
3. In the SHOW dropdown option, choose Balance Details. 

You can refer to the screenshot below for your reference:

Additionally, I’d like to share some valuable articles that will help you explore the various reports available in QBDT and how to customize them to meet your specific business needs:

I understand you perfectly, but until almost the last update of the system, the Bills appeared in positive and the payments in negative.

Even the initial balance that was charged to the supplier in a journal entry is in positive.

The steps provided by my colleague would help you get QuickBooks Desktop to show the bills as positive amounts and the corresponding payments as negative amounts, Daniladeda. However, if you get the same issue, you can use our Tool Hub to fix it. Let me provide more details below.

Before diving into the process, I recommend creating a backup copy of your company file. It can help restore and undo any changes that occur.

To start, the most effective tool you can use is the QuickBooks Tool Hub. It contains various utilities that help resolve common problems, including bills and payment issues. Here's how you install it:

1. First, download the most recent version (1.6.0.8) of the application and save the file somewhere you can easily find (like your Downloads folder or Windows desktop). Note: If you've installed Tool Hub before, you can find out which version you have. Select the Home tab. The version will be on the bottom.
2. Then open the file you downloaded (QuickBooksToolHub.exe).
3. Next, follow the on-screen steps to install and agree to the terms and conditions.
4. Lastly, when installation's done, double-click the icon on your Windows desktop to open the tool hub.

Thank you so much!!!!

What surprises me the most is that he posted a very long message telling me to install something and he didn't give me any instructions. In other words, he wrote me a podcast and didn't say anything.

Yikes!  Why did you edit your post to make it look like you provided the correct answer?  That was not your original post.  Your original post said, "That's just how it is." 

Sadly, you're an employee who needs fellow QB users to provide the right answer.  Then, you have the nerve to take it as your own by editing your post?  It makes those of us who volunteer to help fellow QB users look like we weren't paying attention.  Really bad on your part.
