Hi there, Lisa.
Thank you for posting to the Commmunity about including purchase orders (POs) in your Bill Payment List Report, and I can see how that would be useful.
The Bill Payment List Report provides a detailed overview of all the bill payments recorded in the system over a specified period. However, this does not include purchase order (PO) transactions directly. The report specifically focuses on bill payments made to vendors, summarizing the payments made against bills that have already been entered into the application.
To view all vendor transactions like bill payments, including POs, I'd recommend running the Transaction List by Vendor Report. Here’s how you can do that:
- Go to the Reports menu.
- In the search bar, type Transaction List by Vendor Report.
- Run the report, and to include purchase orders, click the Customize button.
- From there, you can select the PO Status option to show the status of your purchase orders.

Additionally, you can export your reports to obtain a copy or use them outside of QuickBooks. For complete guidelines, refer to this article: Export your reports to Excel from QuickBooks Online.
Don't hesitate to touch base with me here if you require additional assistance with running the report, Lisa. I would be delighted to help you. Have a wonderful rest of your day.
