The accuracy of your profit and loss report relies heavily on the records you maintain in QuickBooks. To resolve the issue of duplicate deposits appearing in the report, you'll need to review each transaction in the bank register. Let’s explore this process in more detail.
Reviewing your transactions in the bank register within QuickBooks Online is essential for maintaining accurate finances and preventing duplicate transactions, including deposits. Here's how to do that:
1. Navigate to the Transactions from the navigation panel.
2. Select the Bank transactions page. Then, click on Go to bank register on the left side.
3. Choose an account, then review each transaction. If you identify a duplicate, keep the original and delete the duplicate by clicking on the transaction and selecting the Delete button at the bottom.

If there are no issues within the bank register, this means that the issue lies within the report itself. Ensure you filter the report accurately by selecting the desired date range. You can also customize it to adjust the report's appearance and content. Additionally, you can click on the amount to investigate what causes the duplicate. Once confirmed as a duplicate that can affect your report, you can delete it through the bank register using the steps outlined above.
After customizing your report, you can save it for future use, which eliminates the need to recreate it each time.
