I agree.  I find QBO incredibly frustrating with limited capability and, ultimately, unreliable.  I had one client try to share his QBO with me and it took months before I could actually access it.

This is very detailed information, but I want a report that connect Vendor BILLS with Vendor payments applied to them. The point of this report would be to see which bill payment checks are applied to which bills so that it is easy to correct mistakes without having to manually open every single bill and bp check to figure out what happened.  Also, I need this report in QB desktop; I can't stand QBO and use it as little as possible.  

It's very misleading for QBO to call a customer report "bills and applied payments" when all QB products designate that bills are for vendors and invoices are for customers.  (So maybe the name of that report in QBO needs to be changed....)

Hi  Liz, I'm on Desktop Enterprise.  I searched Bills and Applied payments, but nothing is coming up. 

By chance is there another report I can modify?    What I need is to be able to print by Vendor (I know how to filter) the Invoice # with a column to show the payment ID a column on the same row.

I have a large company that sends out their bills and payment processing and they can't seem to find a payment even though I've highlighted it on the bill payment stub.  My guess is they've applied funds to an incorrect invoice or written it off as "overpayment", yup!   Who does that, well this one does. :(?

  Anyway, does this help explain my dilemma?

More than 5 years after the start of this unsolved thread we are still waiting for this basic report. Every single time a client wants a statement I have to open up WORD and create one for them manually. It's way beyond ridiculous.

This is very close, however, I'm in APayables, not receivables.

I need this report for Vendor Invoices & Payments to the Vendor.

@QuickBooks Programmers - Please add this very simple report.  I'm sure I'm not the only payables staff needing this report when a vendor applies my payment incorrectly and they need to research their records.  Also, is it possible to have payment stubs going out with .csv's attached so they can quickly apply payments though an import?

Yup, progress requested. Thanks all...  and Yes I NEED this report for my Supplier who likes to write off anything they deem necessary when the payment stubs put the invoice numbers in random order.  This too is a request for a fix.  

Handling vendor invoices and payments can be particularly challenging when discrepancies arise in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT), territyree. Meanwhile, let's run the Custom Transaction Detail Report to filter the data for vendor invoices and payments to vendors.

Here's how:

1. Sign in to your QuickBooks Desktop Company File.
2. Navigate to the Reports menu, hover over Custom Reports, and select Transaction Detail.
3. Customize the report, first click Customize Report. Then, select Filters and enter the Transaction Type in the search bar.
4. Select Multiple Transaction Types from the Transaction Type dropdown menu.
5. From there choose Bill and Bill Payment.
6. After completing the previous steps, click OK twice.
