He is not speaking of anything to do with QuickBooks Desktop Financial. He is meaning that the SO is not showing up under the customer's history when he looks up the customer profile within POS.

That is correct.  I have no transactional history in that box (wo,so or sales receipts)

Thanks for the clarification, Cardinalpower. I', here to ensure this is taken care of.

I recommend performing a clean install of your QuickBooks Point of Sale. This help resolves problem while running the software. I've listed a few things to remember before proceeding:

• Secure a backup copy of your data file.
• Have your QuickBooks Desktop Point of Sale download file or your installation CD.
• Have your License and Product Numbers are available.
• Sign in as Windows Administrator before performing the next steps.

4. In the list of programs, select QuickBooks Desktop Point of Sale 18.0, then select Uninstall/Change.
5. Follow the prompts to complete the process.

Step 2: Rename all Point of Sale folders

If you uninstalled from the server computer, copy the Point of Sale data folder and paste it to the Desktop. As a suggestion, add 'OLD' at the end of the folder name to prevent the software from recognizing the folder.

Folder locations
