How to setup and modify scheduled reports

I have followed the directions and tried to set up a schedule for a report 5 times now. It either gives me an error saying to look at my info, or it acts like it saves. I have tried to view schedule to modify it, however I cannot find where it is scheduled. The info I get from Google and this dashboard is all incorrect for my situation. None of the steps work.

How to setup and modify scheduled reports

Hi there, Benji.

 

I recognize the need to set up scheduled reports in QuickBooks Online to make your business progress efficiently. Let's work together to accomplish this.

 

First, you'll need to have a customized report saved in your QBO account. Otherwise, you can save any reports without customizing them to start creating a schedule for them. Here's how:

 

  1. On the left menu, head to Reports.
  2. Open any reports.
  3. Click the Save as or Save customization button and enter a custom report name.
  4. Select Save.

 

After that, we can start creating the schedule. Here's how:

 

  1. While on the Reports page, navigate to the Custom reports tab.
  2. Look for the customized report and click the Edit button under its Action column. If you see a Delete button instead, click the dropdown arrow and select Create a Schedule.
     
  3. Toggle on the Set email schedule.
  4. Enter the necessary information about the recurrence of your scheduled report.
  5. Click Save and Close.

 

You've finally succeeded in creating your schedule reports. You can also consider creating recurring transactions in QuickBooks Online. 

 

After creating your scheduled reports, you're always free to come back with us for additional assistance. We're here to assist you anytime.

Thank you for your help. Those features were not working when I originally tried this. When I click on the edit feature today, it shows up. I will start giving it a day before I try to schedule something in the future to see if there is a lag.
