I am having the same issue, there's got to be a better way

Hello, @Miker2.

As I've checked from our records, the investigation (INV-41374) was still open and our engineers are still currently working to get a resolution as quickly as possible. At this time, we can try following the workarounds from this thread so you can print the report seamlessly.

Also, I encourage reaching out to our Support Team so you'll be added to the list of affected users and automatically receive an email notification with the latest updates. To contact support, tap on Contact us from the Help menu.

Let me know if you have any other questions. I'm always here to help. Have a good day!

My Employee Earnings summary report is showing astericks where the salary numbers should be. Is this a privacy setting I need to unlock?  Thanks

It's possible that the login you're using does not have access to employee's information, ronpainter56.

This can be the reason why the salary amount is encrypted. You'll want to use an Admin login or ask the admin to change your permission to see the full amounts when running payroll reports.

Here's an article about changing user permissions for more details: QuickBooks Desktop Users and Restrictions.

If you can still the the asterisks symbol even if you're already log in as the Admin, a possible data damage might have caused the issue. Let me share a different option that can resolve common data problems in QuickBooks. 

• Fix data damage on your QuickBooks Desktop company file
• Fix damaged transactions in QuickBooks Desktop

Once done, open the report again to check if you can already see the amount instead of asterisk. 

Let me also share this article with you in case you need to customize the report: Customize reports in QuickBooks Desktop.
