The report outlined doesn't show a running balance for the vendor. It shows all open invoices & the balance based on that.
Hey there, @member1000.
Thank you for the feedback. I hope your day is going well.
Since you're looking for a report with the vendors' bills, bill payments, and credit memos, you can run a Vendor Balance Detail report that shows you the vendor credits and bills on it.
Here's how:
Once you get to the report page, you can follow the steps provided by my colleague @MarsStephanieL to customize your report by which vendor you need.
I've also included a screenshot below of the Vendor Balance Detail report for an example:
Please let me know if the steps above do the trick. Have a safe and productive rest of your week!
The Vendor Balance Detail report only shows me unpaid bills. I want to see all transactions for a specific vendor.
Let me get the report that you need, member1000.
Instead of running the Vendor Balance Detail report, you can go to the vendor's profile and open the Transaction List.
The same page will also show you the vendor's current or running balance. This is something similar to what you can see in the Desktop version. Here's how:
Let me know if you need a different report. I'll get back here to help you again.
This report doesn't show a running balance.
When I exported the report to excel, both bills and payments (called expenses in QB) were a positive number. I need bills to be a positive number and payments to be a negative number so I can see the running balance.
Hi member1000,
The answer given by my colleague JenoP will give you the list of transaction that has Bills as positive and Payments are negative.
To exclude the other transactions of the vendor, you’ll want to filter it first to bill and payments as a type of transaction then proceed to export.
You can also run a transaction List by Vendor and filter the transaction types then export. This will also show the bill as positive and the payment will be negative.
Here’s how:
Performing these steps above will bring you on the right track.

I tried the report suggested by JenoP, but it's not giving me the correct report.
If I paid my vendor with a check with the account "accounts payable", then it shows up as a positive number in this report. I can't have a running balance with it.
I also tried the other report "transaction list by vendor", but I have the same problem.
If I paid my vendor with a check with the account "accounts payable", then it shows up as a positive number in this report. I can't have a running balance with it.
Hi there, @member1000.
Let's make sure that the Balance column is added to your Vendor Balance Detail report so you'll see the running balance for a specific vendor from there.
Before we proceed, please know that when entering a check under the Accounts Payable account should show as a negative amount. You'll want to make sure that the account is selected under the Category column.
Here's how to customize the Vendor Balance Detail report:
Once done, you'll see the running balance of a specific vendor under the Balance column.

Hi,
I'm also looking for a report specifict for Vendor Ledger
something like the report atatched.
should show open balance, all transactions and running balance.
there is a report in QB - General Ledger, but it is only for accounts, not per vendor / customer.
Any idea if there is a report like this?
thanks:)

thank you for your repy, yet it doesn't help:)
the transaction detail by account report - is by account. I need a report for a vendor
in this report (transaction by account) each vendor will appear under all relevant accounts.
also, there is no openning balance.
I'm looking for a ledger report for vendor.
any idea if there one int he QB?
I attach a screenshots below for visual reference.
Please know that you're always welcome to post if you have any other concerns. Wishing you and your business continued success.
I found that the only way to have this report is as follows:
Run a 'vendor balance detail' report; filter it by vendor; adjust the dates, and then you'll need to export it into excel & add a balance column there. This will give you the correct running balance.
Somehow, something is messed up with QB 'balance' column.
I hope this helps.

Thanks.
I know I can do it in Excel, I was trying ot find a solution within the QB.
maybe in the future:)
Thanks.
still not the exact report I wanted, but I guess this is as good as it gets currently.
maybe in the future:)
hey member1000,
I also did all you did so far, talked to these guys on this issue, that their balance column is only showing the final balance not the running balance.
I tried everything so far but cant find a simple ledger report called "General Ledger" having columns Date, Transaction type, Particulars, Debit, Credit and Balance.
But can find any of these..
attaching Screenshot..
Stucked in this from 11 days, cant find any help from QuickBooks side, trial expired 5 days ago,, and because of that did not purchased the subscription because the General ledger Report of Customer/Vendor is Missing
In my Vendor Balance Summary Report, I have a line item that is "QBR AccessToQB Adj Vend US. Does anyone know what that dollar value represents?
Cheri
Nice to have you join this thread and for sharing your concern with us, Cheri.
I'd be delighted to guide you on how to know the dollar value of your line item. You'll want to click the amount under the Total column of your "QBR AccessToQB Adj Vend US" line item. This will open the Vendor Balance Details report.
There, you can review each transaction under that line item and verify if it's a vendor or something else. This way, you'll know what the dollar value its represents.
Furthermore, I'm adding this resource that you can read for reference in seamlessly filing your vendors' 1099: Create and file 1099s using QuickBooks Online.
Please don't hesitate to let me know in your reply if you have other follow-up questions about your Vendor Balance Summary report. I'm always here ready to back you up any time. Keep safe and have a good one!
