Hi there, Reigel. I'm here to share with you some information about what type of transactions flow through the Profit and Loss (P&LStandard report.

 

The P&L report summarizes the total income and expenses of your business at a specific time. This means that all of your income and expense transactions (invoices, sales receipts, bills, checks, credit memo/refund) recorded in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) will post to this report.

 

At this time, you can open the P&L Detail report to see the transactions posted to this report.

 

  1. Open your QBDT file.
  2. Go to the Reports tab, then click on Company & Financial.
  3. Select Profit and Loss Detail.
  4. Filter the dates of the report, then click Refresh.

 

From there, review each transaction posted to the report. You can then pull up the P&L Standard report to compare their balances. I've added these screenshots for your visual references.

 

For more tips about running and customizing your QBDT reports, you can open these articles:

 

 

Aside from that, you can also get more resources while handling your customer and vendor transactions through these links:

 

 

Please let me know if you have any other questions about the P&L report by adding a comment below. I'm more than happy to provide additional assistance. Wishing you a good one!
