Hi there, Angus1899.
I'd be glad to provide some information about the data showing on your dashboard in QuickBooks Online (QBO).
The dashboard provides a quick overview of your company's status, including income and expenses, bank accounts, and more.
Regarding the Profit & Loss section, it will match the Sales and Expense section based on the specific period you have filtered. On the other hand, the Profit & Loss versus Income won't match because the Income section defaults to the last 365 days. Thus, it shows your open invoices and the total sales paid over the past 365 days.
In addition, the amounts on your Sales graph are based on the sales transactions in your account for the period specified (invoices and sales receipts). This will not include journal entries and bank deposits. However, it's counted on your Profit & Loss report.
If you want to know more about the Dashboard tab, you can refer to this article: Get started and adjust settings after you sign up for QuickBooks Online.
Do let me know if you have any other questions relating to the amounts appearing on your dashboard. I'll be happy to assist you. Have a great day ahead!
