How to print chart of accounts

I would like to be able to print my chart of accounts, yet I can't find this option.  Since QB Online hides the account numbers associated with their description, I struggle to find the numbers I need.  It would be handy to print off my chart of accounts to have as a reference, numbers included.  Any help?

  3. In the upper right, locate & click the box labeled PRINT.

Now you have a copy of your CofA

When I go to my settings, there is not a Chart of Accounts option. I have QB online, self-employed. How do I print a chart of accounts in QB online self-employed version?

 

Thanks

Hello there, @samadhirose.

 

Right now, the Chart of Accounts (COA) option is unavailable in QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE). The program focuses on helping self-employed individuals, like you, to track your daily business-related transactions.

 

However, you can print the said report using QuickBooks Online (QBO) which is an accounting software created to help small and medium-sized businesses manage their accounts.

 

If you want to know more about the comparison between QBO and QBSE, kindly visit this link: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/aag/accountants/compchart/

 

Please let me know if you have other concerns about utilizing your QuickBooks account. I'm always here to help.

It would be great to be able to print a nicely formated Chart of accounts.  The one offered you cannot remove the "Action" column or the little box on the left, uses up a lot of unnecessary toner... which is expensive!

I don't need help with supplying feedback, I have Desktop Pro 2020 and all I wish to do is to print a copy/report of my Chart of Accounts.  Why is it so complicated or mysterious??
