Hi there, phxchild12.
Thanks for getting back to us. I'm here to share details about the Profit & Loss (P&L) report you'd like to pull up in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT).
Currently, the ability to have the P&L report display that information is unavailable. In the meantime, you can manually export each details (MTD, YTD, and previous YTD) to Excel and customize it from there as a workaround.
Let's start by exporting the month-to-date. Here's how:
- In the P&L report, click the Customize Report option and remove the checkmarks on the Previous Year and Year-To-Date boxes.
- Hit OK.
- Now, tick the Dates drop-down at the upper left and select This Month-to-date.
- Select the Excel option at the top, then choose Create New Worksheet.
Once done, repeat the steps 3 and 4 for the YTD and previous YTD.
I can see how having this option would be helpful for you and your business. While this isn't available yet, I suggest sending feedback directly to our product developers. They're always looking for ideas to consider on how to improve QuickBooks.
Here's how to submit feedback:
- Go to the Help menu at the top.
- Select Send Feedback Online.
- Click Product Suggestion.
- Choose a feedback type and product area on the QuickBooks Feedback window.
- Enter your feedback, name, and email address (optional).
- Once done, click on the Send Feedback button.
