Limited time. 50% OFF QuickBooks for 3 months.
Buy now & saveVendor credit applied to an item does not appear on the item Quick Report for lower level users. So, the total quantity on this Quick Report is off by the same amount. Higher level users do see the transaction on their Quick Report. Is this a permission issue? If so, what is the permission to change for these users to see the Credit transaction entry and subsequent correct quantity on hand?
We have updated QB version, verified and rebuilt company file, removed and re-added users, and checked report dates with no success.
If there is no immediate permission solution to this problem, can Intuit/QB at least allow the lower permission user to see the Credit entry line while still denying them to "drill down" on that transaction (as they already do with restricted reports, etc.)? It is very important for sales and purchasing personnel to see an accurate quantity total on item Quick Reports.
Has anyone at QB seen this post and have a solution?
I appreciate your effort in doing troubleshooting steps to fix this issue, concretetools. Yes, the permission defines if a user can access the item Quick Report. Let me share some more insights regarding this matter.
User permissions are determined by their assigned roles. To enable access to certain reports, you can modify their user roles. The roles with report access include: Accounts Receivable Manager, Standard All Access, Standard Limited Customers and Vendors, and View Reports.
For more detailed information about this, you can visit this article: User roles and access rights.
Furthermore, to create and manage users and roles, you can see this material for guidance.

Thank you for the information and links about how Permissions and Roles work. I believe your specific solution for me includes creating a Custom Role for our users to gain access to the vendor Credit item listed on the Quick Report. If so, among the list of Areas and Activities, which one(s) will provide this specific access without also allowing access to other sensitive and restricted vendor and payable information and reports? Or are you suggesting that I will learn what happens when I grant these permissions through a "trial and error" approach?

Thank you, I do understand how to create a specific and dedicated User Role. But I am left without your guidance as to which Area and Activity within the Role Access list I need to check in order to make the specific vendor Credit transaction in a Quick Report the only additionally accessible item. My desire is to accomplish this without granting access to any other protected and private vendor, payable, payroll, and corporate level transactions these users cannot currently access. Can you assist with this request?
if this is not possible, then is it a software design issue that could be resolved in an upcoming update?
Currently, QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) does not allow for isolated access to specific transactions, such as vendor credits in Quick Reports, without giving access to related vendor or payable information, @concretetools. We can forward your feedback to our product engineers for consideration in future updates. Let me guide you on how.

Thank you for your reply. I have submitted the request to your product engineers in twice. Please forward my request from your side as well. Please know this is not a "wish list" kind of issue. This is of significant importance if every user cannot see the correct quantity on hand while viewing a simple Item Quick Report, which includes all historical transactions. Thank you again!
