Filtering Comparative Balance Sheet by specific classes changes the bank account balance

Having an issue when filtering the Comparative Balance Sheet by specific classes... it changes the bank account balance.  Filtering a Balance Sheet by Class for specific class(es) works fine, it's only the comparative balance sheet.  Transactions entered using the Write Checks tool or Make Deposit tool no longer show up in the bank activity once filtered.

 

Using QB Accountant Desktop.  All transactions have a class assigned.  Using QB to track multiple trusts (my classes) and some share a bank account.

 

Anyone have issues with this or better yet, know a solution?

Filtering Comparative Balance Sheet by specific classes changes the bank account balance

Welcome to the Community, @keskes. I'm here to help you get past this issue. 

 

This behavior where your bank account balance changes when filtering Comparative Balance Sheet by specific classed is often caused by damaged data. I recommend running the Verify/Rebuild tool to help us identify the most commonly known data issues within the file and resolves them.

 

Before we start, let's ensure to backup of your company file. Then, we can proceed to verifying and rebuilding your data in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Click File at the top menu.
  2. Go to Utilities.
  3. Select Verify. Then, repeat the first two steps and select Rebuild.

 

You can also check out this article for the detailed steps on running the Verify and Rebuild tool in QuickBooks: Resolve data damage on your company file.

 

for future reference, read through this article to learn more about Comparative Financial Statements to determine the profitability and financial soundness of your business. 

 

I'll be right here if you need anything about QuickBooks. Wish you all the best.

Katherine,

 

Thanks for the follow up.  I ran the verify and rebuild like you said and the issue still exists.  The comparative balance sheet, when filtered by class, still ignores transactions created from Make Deposit and Write Checks that are split to different classes.  The report works fine until filtered, then I believe those transactions are considered Unclassified at that time.
