Exporting Supplier Full Ledger

I tried to export the full ledger of a certain supplier from 2018-2020 in excel but the total balance is not matching from the total outstanding payable. I asked help from the customer support which i gave them access to my account and received a reply : Regarding your query with the Total balance that is not matching to the Open Balance, our team has advised that in the Transaction List of the Supplier Profile, the Total column adds up or deducts based on the transaction that will show up for a specific page or number of entries.Please note that the maximum number of entries/transactions we can show in the Transaction List is 300 per page and this Supplier in question has 689 transactions, therefore in the total, it will only add or minus the transactions per page and not by all transactions entered..

We are a group of company and the head office was questioning why the payable is not matching from the ledger. I have forwarded my conversation to the Head Finance but did not accept the explaination. Please help.

Thanks for reaching out the Community, OCW1.

 

To clarify, did you export the transaction list that is on the Suppliers page? If so, you'll want to run the Transaction List by Date. This report shows the list of all your transactions, ordered by date. You can customize the data by following these steps:

 

  1. Go to Reports on the left panel.
  2. Type Transaction List by Date in the search field.
  3. Select the Report period and Group By, select Vendor.
  4. Click the Customize button.
  5. In the Rows/Columns section, press the Change columns link to show the columns.
  6. Put a check mark on the Open Balance box.
  7. Go to the Filter section and choose the following Transaction Types: Bill Payment (Check), Bill Payment (Credit Card), Cash Expense, Check, Credit Card Expense, Credit Card Credit, and Vendor Credit.
  8. Select the suppliers from the Name drop-down list.
  9. Hit the Run report button. 

Here's a sample screenshot for a visual reference:

 

 

Once done, you can click the export icon below the Customize button and select Export to Excel.

 

For more customization on the report, you can read this article: Customize vendor reports.

Thank you for your reply. I followed your instructions but the journal entries are not showing even if i added in the list under transaction type. I tried every possible way but still failed. The reason why i need to extract the full ledger into excel because there was a problem with the balance from the previous years (from 2018) and the auditor is trying to fix and checking every entries for this certain supplier. I hope there is still another way to extract the full ledger aside from the explanation of the Quickbooks Help Expert (as i copied in my first post) which the Auditor will never accept.

Let me share an additional information, @OCW1.

 

You can filter the report to show all your supplier's transactions. This way it will display all the transactions recorded under the same supplier or vendor. I can walk you through in doing so.

  1. Open the Transaction List by Date.
  2. Click the Customize button.
  3. Set the report date to All Dates.
  4. Expand the Rows/Columns section.
  5. Mark the following tick box:
    • Date
    • Transaction Type
    • Num
    • Account
    • Amount
    • Open Balance
  6. From the Filter section, put a checkmark on All Transaction Types tick box. 
  7. Click the Run Report button. 

Make sure to set the transactions to be Grouped by Vendor.  Also, you can run the specific Transaction List by Vendor Report. By doing this, you'd see all the transactions including journal entries recorded under each vendor in your QuickBooks account.

Hi OCW1!

 

There is one report that will surely show the journal entries as well as the other vendor transactions. Please follow these steps:

  1. Go to the Reports tab. Search and select Journal.
  2. Make sure to set the correct Report period from 2018 to 2020.
  3. From the Customize button, Filter section.
  4. You can select the Transaction Type to All and select the vendor in the Name drop-down. Then, tap Run report.

Most of the reports in QuickBooks Online are customizable so you can get the right data you need. Also, please check this article to see all the available reports in QuickBooks Online: Reports included in your QuickBooks Online subscription.

Thank you @AlexV for the help. I already tried this but it really doesnt show. 

 

Below is the Journal Report as instructed. In between # 5219 and 5224, there should be a journal entry. Please see the 2nd screenshot where i took from the Supplier ledger itself.

I appreciate all the steps you've taken, OCW1. I want to make sure to get to the bottom of this so you can get back to business.

 

We can try another step to get this sorted out. Let's try changing the filter to Journal Entry from the Transaction Type drop-down under the same vendor and date. If journal entry still doesn't show up, we can try pulling the process again on a private window to check if this has something to do with the browser. There are times that your browser is full of frequently accessed page resources, causing QBO to act strange.

 

You can refer to these shortcut keys:

  • Press Ctrl + Shift + P for Firefox.
  • Press Ctrl Shift N for Chrome.
  • Hold down Command Shift N for Safari.

If it works, clear your browser’s cache to speed up the loading process of the QBO website and for the system to start fresh. Otherwise, switch to another supported browser as an alternative.

 

If it still doesn't show up, we can delete it, then recreate the JE. Please be reminded that before deleting the transaction you got all the details from it for your reference.

 

Please keep me posted on how the steps work. I want to make sure everything is taken care of.

Thank you @GlinetteC for your help. Im using Chrome browser for quickbooks. I have cleared all cache and tried different browsers but it didn't work out. We are a group of companies in different countries and the head office is always checking the reports whether summary or full ledger and even checking every entries. Until now, they are chasing me on my answer on how is it possible that they couldn't get the right figure when exporting in to excel. I got curious about it and tried in customer ledger with more than 500 transactions, apparently the same problem. It is not matching the total balance from the Ageing report.

Hi @MJoy_D. Thank you. I first contacted the customer support in the help icon in QBO. I've chatted with them and even gave them access to my account so they can check by themselves and hoping that they can solve my issue. Below is their reply after the access permitted.

 

Case [removed] - Regarding your query with the Total balance that is not matching to the Open Balance, our team has advised that in the Transaction List of the Supplier Profile, the Total column adds up or deducts based on the transaction that will show up for a specific page or number of entries.Please note that the maximum number of entries/transactions we can show in the Transaction List is 300 per page and this Supplier in question has 689 transactions, therefore in the total, it will only add or minus the transactions per page and not by all transactions entered.
