Good day, @arkvalleyinfo.

 

I'm glad to have you here in the Community. I can help you run and customize the Budget vs Actual report.

  1. Click Reports.
  2. On the search field, enter Budget vs Actual.
  3. Go to the Report period field and customize the date.
  4. Click Run report to refresh the information.

To know more about customizing report, please check this article: How to customize QBO reports.

 

That should help you get the right report, jan9.

 

Keep me posted if you have additional questions about reports. I'm still here to help you further. Wishing you and your business continued success!

Can this report be run with the Current month and YTD? I've tried these steps, but the "Total" columns end up being the total for the month, not YTD. I found an alternate way to customize the report that gives me each month and then YTD, but my directors would like to see MTD and YTD budget vs actual, not every month.

 

Thanks!

Hello there, layna-e-diehl.

 

The report is unable to populate the total amount for MTD and YTD. I like your idea where we can run the Budget vs Accrual report total amount for the MTD and YTD. 

 

I'll ensure to forward your suggestion to our product engineers. This way, generating the total amount for MTD and YTD might be given a chance to be included in the next product updates.

 

I'm right here if you have other questions. I'll help you figure them out! Have a good one.
