How do I add account numbers to my accounts. There is no number field in the edit portion.

The answer I received answered my question perfectly! 

Thank you!

When we added account numbers it seems to have only added numbering to original accounts QB generated when opening the company file. The ones we have created did not receive a number. Is this normal, is there a fix? 

Thanks for joining in this thread, @Tracy Beeman.

Yes, this is normal. Only QuickBooks generated accounts will automatically populate their own number in the Chart of Accounts list.

Once you create a new account, you have to manually enter a number on them. This way, you can easily track your accounts in QuickBooks.

Just make sure to enable the Use account number feature first. Then, follow the steps that were outlined by my colleague above. 

Additionally, here's a more detailed breakdown of account types in the Chart of Accounts.

Trying to run a chec detail report with account numbers. Inserted the heading, but can’t get it to populate even though I entered the account number into the customer and vendor. 

I'm glad you joined the thread, @Affvince.

Allow me to guide you in running a Check Detail report with account numbers on it.

I recommend that you follow the instructions provided by @Adrian_A in this post to ensure that account numbers are appropriately entered into QuickBooks.

On the other hand, to view the account number from the Check Detail report, I recommend customizing the report and ensuring that the Account field is included. Here's how:

1. Go to the Report menu. Then Select Banking and Check Detail.
2. Click the Customize Report button.
3. Navigate the Display tab.
4. From the Columns field, search and check Account.
5. Once done, hit OK.
