Customers with No Transactions for 10 Years

I would like to generate a list of customers that have not had any activity on their account for 10 years.

I need this to be based on the quantity of transactions rather than transaction total or balance amount as we have customers who have zero cost sales orders that should be excluded from the list.

 

Thank you.

Customers with No Transactions for 10 Years

Having a report that automatically tracks transactions accrued by customers is a great idea, Allison. However, QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) doesn’t include a built-in feature to list customers without transactions over a specific period. As a workaround, you can use the Customer List Report to view all customers and the Transaction List by Customer Report to review their activity within a specific time frame.

 

Here's how you can get the reports:

 

  1. Go to the Reports menu and select Customer & Receivables
  2. Choose Customer Contact List or Transaction List by Customer.

  3. Customize the report period of your Transaction List by Customer to ten years and manually review the transactions for each customer.

 

Next, we can manually identify the customers with few or no transactions during this period by exporting them into an Excel file and using its tools to count the transactions.

QuickBooks won't do it, but you can use our BRC List Reporter  to create a customer report with the last sale date, and then sort the list by that date. You can try it free in trial mode by downloading and installing it from the link above.
