Want to know what my Virtual Assistant help me in running my QB.

Thank you. I checked the various reports available in my subscription but I can't figured it out if what specific reports should I run for my personal and business transactions. My transactions are mixed. And can't figured this out how to customize them. 

 

Can I ran specific Chart of Accounts report? And customize it in business or personal transactions? Is that possible?

Want to know what my Virtual Assistant help me in running my QB.

Thanks for updating us on this, Ellechim. It can be challenging when you can't find the specific report to run. I'm here to help you with that.

 

The Account List or Chart of Accounts report will only show the balances. We can run the Transaction Detail by Account instead. I'll show you how:

  1. Go to Business overview and select Reports.
  2. If you have the old interface, go to Reports.
  3. On the search bar, type in Transaction Detail by Account.
  4. Click Customise.
  5. Set the correct report period.
  6. Go to the Filter section.
  7. Choose the drop-down menu beside Account.
  8. Select the account that has your business transactions.
  9. Click Run report.
  10. You can export the report by clicking the Export icon.
  11. Repeat the steps to filter the personal transactions.

 

For more details, please see this article: Run Report in QuickBooks Online.

 

Additionally, I've included an article that'll help you save your current customised settings in QuickBooks Online. This ensures you can easily access them in the future: Memorise Reports in QuickBooks Online.

 

I'll be glad to help you again if you have more questions about running reports. Please add the details in the comment section.
