Join nowI'd like to thin our HUGE customer list by removing old customers with no recent sales history. Is there a way to run a report showing me which customers I can delete?
After that, it would be GREAT if there was a way to quickly make these customers inactive, but I already know the only way is to go into each one individually and edit the customer details.
Thanks for any suggestions!

Hello @kaycee1,
Welcome to the Community. I can help you run the report to filter customers with no recent sales history.
I suggest you use Sales by Customer Summary to acquire the data you need. You can customize the report to show customers with zero and non-zero amounts.
I know you only need the data for old customers with no recent sales history. However, the option to only show zero figures is unavailable.
As a workaround, I recommend exporting the report to Excel and manually remove the unnecessary data. Here's how:
You're correct about making customers inactive. As of now, the only way to do it is by going to each one of them in the system.
I've also attached an article you can use to get the most out of your financial reports in QuickBooks: Customize reports in QuickBooks Online.

That worked great!
Instead of monthly, I just had it show total only, then after exporting it to Excel I sorted it by total and eliminated everything that wasn't zero. Then I printed it, which still ended up being 36 pages...now the fun begins!
Thank you!
