How can i run a report for 2023 when a few income checks for 2023 were deposited in 2024

Always seem to run in to this issue.  I always change the deposit dates for previous year income to 12/31/23, run the report and then change the date back to 2024.  is there a simpler way to do this? 

thanks

Good evening, @rmp7345

 

Welcome back to the Community! 

 

To clarify, is this happening to one particular report or all of them? 

 

In the meantime, you can use our Verify and Rebuild tool to help narrow down the cause. 

 

I'll be waiting for your response!

How can i run a report for 2023 when a few income checks for 2023 were deposited in 2024

Hello Candice C, 

when i run a Profit and Loss report, it is based on a timeframe.  if i run it for 2023, it will not include any 2024 income.  trying to determine how to run a "income" report for 2023 which includes any 2023 income deposits deposited in 2024.  do i need to code it differently when making the deposit entry in QB?

 

thanks!

Hello @rmp7345,

 

Thank you for getting back to us. I am glad to provide further assistance in running the Profit and Loss report.

 

Cash basis and accrual basis reporting is how the date is determined for reporting the income or expense. You can run the P&L report on an Accrual basis which includes income checks regardless of when it is actually received. This way, you can account for income received in 2024 for services or sales provided in 2023. Here's how you can run the report:

 

  1. Go to Reports.
  2. Select Company & Financial.
  3. Choose Profit & Loss Standard (or the version of the Profit and Loss report that you normally use).
  4. Find the Report Basis section, then select Accrual as the reporting method.
  5. Set the report date range to encompass the year of 2023.

 

However, it is important to choose a method that is consistent with how you report your taxes. If you have already filed or prepared other financial statements on a cash basis, it's a good idea to consult your accountant or tax advisor before making any changes to your reporting methods. 

 

In case you face any issues while running financial reports in QBDT, such as missing income or transactions, you may refer to this article: Why are my income and expense transactions missing from my Profit and Loss report?
