I'll help with your question running Profit and Loss and other related concerns, georgeDN.
The reports in QBO and Mac have their own similarities and differences. Similar to the Mac version, you can customize it add the percentages column. Here's how:
- Open the Profit and Loss Comparison report.
- Click Customize in the upper-right hand corner.
- Scroll-down to the Rows/Columns section and check the % change boxes.
- Select Run report.
Please take note that the comparison is based on a year-on-year period unlike from the one in the Mac version. Although, you can customize the report period to monthly or weekly, it will only show the data from last year. At the moment, there's no option to show it from a specific period to another one.
Also, there's actually a way of opening the bank register directly from the Home page. Just go the Dashboard menu and proceed to the Bank Accounts sections. Then, click the bank account to directly open the register.
With regards to being able to be routed back to the same spot after making changes, you can send feedback to our engineers. You can also do the same for getting the option to open multiple reports at once. Suggestions and feature requests are reviewed when new updates are designed.

Thanks for the response. Af far as the P&L customization option, I don't have any of those options available. You can see what I have available in the photo I uploaded.
As far as getting to my checking account easily when I go to the second menu from Business Overview, to Bank Accounts, I can go to my checking but it sends me to the review page. If I click on Cash Expense I have to go to a another drop down menu for my checking. All if this are many steps to just see my check register.
I appreciate the screenshot you've provided, georgeDN. Let me help you sort this out.
Are you using QuickBooks Online Simple Start? If so, the option to show the % column is unavailable. This type of subscription has basic reporting features.
You might want to consider upgrading your plan to Essentials or higher if you need more reporting filter options.

Alternatively, you might want to export the report into Excel and manually compare data from there. On the Profit and Loss report, click the Export button (beside the small gear icon) then select Export to Excel.

Thanks again. Yes, I am using Simple Start, because it does most of what I need. So unhappy that I can't run reports that I need. The next level up is $600 per year! Ugh!
