Sales order by customer report columns not printing

I customized my Sales order by customer report to match the columns that we export into excel, and then upload to our website.  In the SO entry screen everything looks correct, but when I try to print the report almost half of my columns are blank.  What would cause this?

Thank you for the reply.  To be more specific, when I select this report and generate it to my screen, the columns do not have any data in them.  This is prior to trying to print out.

Thanks for coming back to us, @br2911.

 

Usually, this error occurs when your data is damaged or corrupted. We can run the Verify/Rebuild tool utility to detect the data damage. 

 

Here's how:

  1. Go to the File menu, then hover over Utilities.
  2. Select Rebuild Data.
  3. On the QuickBooks Information window, select OK. Follow the onscreen steps to save a backup.
  4. Let the tool repair your file. It may take some time. QuickBooks may seem stuck, but as long as you can move your mouse, the tool is working.
  5. When the tool finishes, select OK.
  6. Go to the File menu, and then hover over Utilities.
  7. Select Verify Data.
  8. Let the tool check your file for data issues.

If QuickBooks doesn't find any problems, select OK. However, if QuickBooks finds an issue with your company file, click Rebuild Now.

 

Also, make sure QuickBooks has its latest release. This is to ensure that everything is up to date.

 

However, if the issue persists, let's use the Print & PDF Repair Tool from the QuickBooks Tool Hub to fix most of the common printing issues. I'll guide you how:

 

  1. Close your QuickBooks Desktop.
  2. Download the most recent version (1.4.0.0) of the QuickBooks Tool Hub. Save it somewhere on your computer.
  3. Open the file QuickBooksToolHub.exe.
  4. Follow the on-screen steps to install and agree to the terms and conditions.

After installing it, double-click the icon on your Windows desktop to open the tool hub. Then, let's use the tools and go to the Program Problems tab to resolve common PDF and printing-related issues.

 

Here's an article you can read for more details: Fix common problems and errors with the QuickBooks Desktop Tool Hub.

 

If the solution above doesn't work, please feel free to check out this article for more troubleshooting steps: Resolve printing issues.
