I entered a journal entry onto Quickbooks (entry number "AJE11") and put the amount of 30,300 as a credit into account 478, which is listed as "other income." When I open the P&L and double click on that account number, AJE11 does not show up. I've made sure that the dates are all accurate and I've already tried restarting my computer. I'm using Quickbooks Premier - Accountant Edition 2020.
I'd appreciate any help. Thank you.

Hello, melshimizu.
Thanks for adding the screenshots! Good work on ensuring the dates are correct on your report. I'll add a couple of solutions to help you show the journal entry on your P&L.
First thing to look out for is the Report basis. This can affect how the transactions (including journal entries) are shown on your report. Depending on what "478 - Misc. Income" is, the entry might not show up under Cash or Accrual.
In this case, you'll want to change the basis to Accrual or Cash. In the Profit & Loss report, simply select either options.
Another thing to look out for is a possible data integrity issue. This might be the likely culprit for the disappearing transaction on reports. To fix this, let's run the Verify and Rebuild utility. Here's how:
Verify Data:
- Click the File menu, then hover on Utilities.
- Choose Verify Data.
- Wait for the process to complete and follow the on-screen prompts.
Rebuild Data:
- When QuickBooks has encountered errors after the Verify process, go to the File menu and hover on Utilities.
- Select Rebuild Data this time.
- Follow the on-screen prompts to rebuild the data successfully.

After running the utility, pull up your Profit & Loss report again and review all the journal entries.
