I'm sure it's a simple fix but I can't seem to wrap my head around it.
Thanks

Appreciate your detailed reply, jack Thompson.
Allow me to assist you further and help you filter your Profit and Loss report to show the desired information in QuickBooks Online (QBO).
Here's how:
Additionally, you can check out this article to learn how to get a clear look at your current and future business finances in QBO: Use reports to track cash flow in QuickBooks Online.
Feel free to reply to us in the thread if you have any other reports or QuickBooks-related concerns. Have a great day.
Sorry - I still don't think I'm explaining correctly.
I just need the invoices referencing 'NRCS' to accumulate under the 'Misc. NRCS Audits' Income account in the GL rather than 'Audit Services'. Income account.
Does that make sense?
Invoices must be linked to the income accounts somehow and I just can't find where.
I've actually used QB/QBO for years but solely as operating project account setups for overseas project offices. Using it as an actual accounting package is kind of new for me.
Thanks for following up with those additional details, jack Thompson.
I want to make sure you're able to change the income account in QuickBooks Online.
The income accounts are affected by your products and/or services being listed as line items on the invoices. There are just a few steps to get it changed to the account you'd like. Here's how:
1. Go to Settings ⚙ and select Products and services.
2. Find the item and select Edit.
3. From the Income account▼ dropdown, choose the account you want to use.
Note: Can't see the account? Make sure the account's detail type is Sales of Product Income.
4. Select Save and close.
The following article provides additional info about changing the account for a product or service item in QuickBooks Online.
That will do it. With this info you'll be able to change your income accounts. Please don't hesitate to reach back out if you have any other questions.
Okay, cool.
That all makes sense - I followed this and further read up on this:
changing the account for a product or service item in QuickBooks Online.
Unfortunately, I never saw my way to this step:
"For service and non-inventory items, select the Also update this account in historical transactions checkbox after step. This updates all transactions that use the item."
The current P&L looks like it's grouping the way I want but the previous year is still dumping them into 'Audit Services'.
Hello there, Jack.
Let me guide you through finding that checkbox step so you can continue achieving your goal.
Here's how:
If you still can't find the checkbox, we'll need to troubleshoot your browser to ensure it runs properly with QuickBooks Online. Let's start with accessing QuickBooks Online using incognito mode or a private window.
Here are the shortcut keys to go private mode in a browser:
For Google Chrome / Microsoft Edge / Opera:
For Firefox:
For Safari:
If this works, you can proceed to clear your browser's cache and cookies.
Furthermore, you can consider adding a new income account to your chart of accounts in QuickBooks Online.
