Chart of Accounts

Our ED wants to move a current G/L out from under a subacount. I removed the "sub account of ..." from the G/L. However, it is now the first account  listed in my P&L instead of it showing up where it would numerically fall. It's correct on the actual chart of accounts but not on the P&L. Help! :(

Chart of Accounts

Hello VMP,

 

That'll likely happen since the the account became a parent one and the number sequence is different. Here are the options that we can offer to get this working:

  • Change the number associated to the account.
  • Export and customize the Profit and Loss report in Excel.

Here's how to update the Number if you decided to edit an account:

  1. Click Lists at the top menu and select Chart of Accounts.
  2. Right-click on the account you want to update and select Edit Account.
  3. Update the Number and click Save & Close.

And here's how you can export the Profit and Loss report to Excel:

  1. Open the Profit and Loss report.
  2. Click the Export button and select Create New Worksheet.
  3. Export the data to Excel and customize it.

You can also use this link for reference: Export reports as Excel workbooks in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

We'll be right here if you have additional concerns. Have a great day!
