Below the line expense

Other expenses is the only thing that posts at the bottom of the P&L, whether that is below the line to you or not I am not sure

If you mean after net income, not something QB will do, you would have to export the P&L and format it the way you want in excel

I tried to categorize the account as 'other business expense'. That didn't seem to work. I also have a category called 'other misc service cost'. Those are the only two that have 'other' in the title. 

My QBO P&L does NOT show "net operating income" any ideas why? Any way to fix it?

It shows "total expenses" and then "other expenses" section, but NO "net operating income" in between the two

thanks

Hello there, ElenkinS.

The Net Operating Income typically shows in the Profit and Loss report. Since it's not showing in your end, I'd recommend contacting our QuickBooks Customer Care team. They can help you further with this concern. Also, I'd make sure to pass your experience along to our engineers so they can look into it.

Here's how to contact them: 

1. Go to Help (question mark icon).
2. Click Contact us.
3. Enter a brief description of your concern in the How can we help? field and click Continue.
4. Choose an option in reaching our live agent.

Please let me know if you have more questions. I'd be right here to answer.

will attempt that, thanks

i tried that and didn't get me anywhere

Other ideas?

thanks

Thanks for reaching out back to us, @ElenkinS.

The Net Operating Income is your revenue through daily sales of operating your business. The posting of your amounts depends on how you set up and created the accounts in QBO as well as your company type and industry.

I want to help the best I can and get this sorted. I will just need more details. May I know your company type and industry? I'd also appreciate if you can attach a screenshot of your Profit and Loss report.

Here are the steps in checking your QBO company type and industry:

1. Click the Gear icon.
2. Choose Account and Settings.
3. Select the Company tab.
4. Go to the Company type section to get the Tax form and Industry information.

I'll keep an eye for your response. I'm looking forward to helping you more in the future.

This has nothing to do with "Company type" in the Gear settings.

What's the Account Type for 'Other Expenses' you've in your Chart of Accounts? 

It should set up as "Other Expense" Account Type.

Surely Intuit could add a "Net Profit Report"  that shows the profit after income and normal expenses....you could then use such a report to do an EBITA report  (earnings before Interest, tax and amortisation).if you were to code tax , interest and amoritsation/depreciation to Other Expenses ...how handy would this be...

you could also use the same report for Trust's or Partnerships to show net profit before distributions to partners/beneficiaries  (if you were to code distributions to other expense)

This product has been around for ages please please create a report "Net Profit before other expenses",  "Net Profit before Abnormal Item"  "Net Profit Before Distributions"  call it what you like.

We are in Australia and we love the new management reports that we can do....if  this report was enabled we could use the management reports to do up clients Financials...but because it doesn't we have to import into other software.....double handling is dumb.
