Changing the date when entering transactions

Hi there,

I'm hoping someone can help with this issue.

I'm using Qbks for MAC desktop 2020 and entering a full fiscal year so I need to change the date as I go, starting at July 2022.  The issue is that I go to enter the date manually, using various formats (my mac preferences are for mon/day/year) and Qbks keeps changing it back to today's date.  It's confusing because it worked a few times, but now not.  I've checked preferences on both my MAC and Qbks.  The little calendar icon that appears by the date does nothing when clicked on.

If anyone has suggestions or can help that would be so appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Sarah

Hi,

 

there is no Quickbooks Desktop Help in my Help drop down menu.  In fact, my screen does not look like yours.

This seems like it would be a simple issue to fix and I'm surprised it's become so complicated.

Please advise,

Thank you,
