I am trying to delete an erroneous account that showed on my trail balance but when I click on the individual account it shows up as deleted but it still showing up in my trial balance report and the numbers are still off. What do I need to do to completely delete a transaction so it doesn't show up in the trial balance?.
It's nice to see you here in the Community, @grapeter.
I'd like to shed some light on deleting transactions in QuickBooks Online. I will walk you through the steps. Here's how:
It's simple to correct if you unintentionally exclude the incorrect transaction. Simply choose the Excluded tab, check the box next to the transaction, and then choose Undo. It returns to the For Review tab to give you another chance to determine what to do with the transaction.
Then, you can already delete them. Here's how:
I'm also linking an article for further guidance: Exclude expenses from downloaded bank transactions.
You can also read this article for more information: Void or Delete an Invoice or Other Transactions.
Let me know if you have any other concerns. I'm always here to lend a hand and help you further. Have a good day.
Even though it says deleted, the account is still there and its throwing off my overall balance in the trial balance report.
