I am a Solo LLC Member using Quickbooks online. I own a diner. All sales from customers are deposited daily either by cash or credit card. All transactions are downloaded automatically in Quickbooks through linked bank accounts. So my dilemma I need to correct and learn properly. I at times I take cash withdrawals before I make the day cash deposits. In Quickbook chart of accounts (Sales) it doesn't show full sales because of the cash withdrawals before deposit. I created account Un-deposited Sales to account for all cash withdrawals used for owner expenses/pay or cost of goods. Am I in the right thought process here. How do I record theses now to show in my sales account to show full sales. Please any step by step help is appreciated.
I appreciate you for sharing the details of your concern with us, @Hogwild3.
I can impart some insights on how to record your full sales in QuickBooks Online (QBO).
You can manually add a transaction to your sales account. Then, enter a note in the memo field stating what the transaction is for. This way, your account still shows the full amount of your sales. Let me show you how.
You can also read through this link for more details: Manually add transactions to account registers in QuickBooks Online.
I'd also recommend working with your accountant for further advice about this matter. This way, we can ensure your account is well accounted for. If you don't have one, you can visit our ProAdvisor page and look for one from there.
To avoid any confusion in the future, you'll want to wait for the full amount to be deposited into your account before making some withdrawals.

O.k. So when I located sales in charts of account. The only action available is run report.
Let me share some information about viewing the register in your account, Hogwild3.
There are reasons why accounts in the Chart of Accounts (COA) only show the Run report option. Among these are the following:
In your case, since your referring to the Sales account which is under Income, the only available option is the Run report. This option lets you focus on a specific account instead of navigating the Reports menu.
Otherwise, you'll want to open the Profit and Loss report. Then, get the data you need for the business's finances whenever you want. Let me show you how:

So with the option only being run report how do I enter sales to compensate for the cash I withdrew from daily sales. Right now quickbooks only shows the automatic deposits of sales that I make daily through connected bank account.
I'm here to help record the sales to compensate the withdrawn cash, Hogwild3.
You can simply match the deposit of sales to the entry you've manually recorded on the Sales account. Doing this will prevent duplicates deposits on your bank register.
Here's how to match them:
After you match or add downloaded transactions, they're recorded into QuickBooks. You can review your work and make sure everything is correct in the Categorized or Reviewed tab.
If you need to change or move a transaction to a different account, follow these steps to undo or unmatch it.
