My Trade Receivables balance in the TB is less than the balance in the A/R Aging Summary.

My Trade Receivables balance in the TB is less than the balance in the A/R Aging Summary.

When I run the report one day earlier, the balances are perfect.  The next day they are off by $485.

Hello there, JADG.

 

Let's perform some steps to show the same amount or figures between the Trail Balance report and the A/R Aging Summary report.

 

First, make sure you set the report basis correctly: Accrual/Cash.

 

Then, make sure customize and set the appropriate period of each report to get the same data. Here's how:

 

  1. Click the Customize button.
  2. Include all the details needed. 
  3. Click OK. Then, hit Refresh.

 

We can run the verify rebuild to fix data-related issues on a company file. The steps below will guide you through the process.

 

  1. Go to the File menu.
  2. Select Utilities.
  3. Click Verify Data. Then, select OK to close all windows.
  4. Then, go back to the File menu.
  5. Select Rebuild Data under Utilities.
  6. QuickBooks will ask you to make a backup before rebuilding your company file. Then, OK.
  7. Once done, hit OK.


I highly recommend reading about customizing reports in QuickBooks. You can also memorize reports to save your current customized report settings for future reference. 

 

Let me know how it works for you. I'm always here whenever you need help with QuickBooks Desktop. Stay safe and have a good one!
