How to list all account refs in QuickBooks desktop?

Are you referring to showing your account numbers in Chart of Accounts, Marat?

 

If so, you can follow these simple steps:

  1. Click Edit on the menu.
  2. Select Preferences.
  3. Go to Accounting.
  4. Pick Company Preferences and check the Use Account Numbers box.

 

 

Afterward, go back to your chart of accounts, and then you'll have the option to edit the numbers.

Hi there Marat. 

 

The Insufficient permission error usually occurs in Desktop when either the SYSTEM group or the Everyone group does not have Full Control privileges for the directory mentioned in the error. You can use the QuickBooks Diagnostic Tool or try the manual steps for fixing the error. Follow along below. 

 

Download and install the QuickBooks Tools Hub:

 

The QuickBooks Tools Hub helps fix common errors. QuickBooks needs to be closed to use the tool hub. See Fix QuickBooks Desktop install errors to run and use the QuickBooks Install Diagnostic Tool.

 

Note: The speed of the repair depends on your internet speed and your computer's performance.

 

Manually resolve the issue:

 

Use this solution if the tool did not resolve the issue or if you prefer manual troubleshooting steps.

  5. Click the Advanced button.
  6. Click the Edit button.
  7. Scroll down the list of Permission entries and double-click the SYSTEM user.
  8. Select the checkbox for the Full Control row in the Allow column and click OK.
  9. Repeat steps a to h with the Everyone group (if it exists).
  10. Check the checkbox labeled Replace all existing inheritable permissions on all descendants with inheritable permissions from this object.
  11. Click OK in both the Advanced Security Settings window and again in the COMMON FILES Properties window.
  12. Install QuickBooks Desktop.
