It's good to have you in the Community, Ann. Let's work together to ensure your Income Widget from the Dashboard will update its information.

 

Before anything else, I'd like to know your QuickBooks Online (QBO) product subscription and if the total amount in your Income Widget isn't the same as the All Sales or Invoices totals.

 

In the meantime, we can perform some basic troubleshooting steps. Let's start by signing in to your account via private or incognito mode to avoid storing cache data files that can cause lag when running web-based programs.

 

You can refer to the shortcut keys below:

 

  • Google Chrome: press Ctrl + Shift + N
  • Microsoft Edge: press Ctrl + Shift + N
  • Safari: press Command + Shift + N

 

After that, check your Income Widget. If it's updating, clear the cache of your default browser to remove all damaged data. If the issue persists, you can utilize another supported browser or device.

 

I'll also share this article to guide you on placing your transactions into correct accounts: Categorize online bank transactions in QuickBooks Online.

 

Please know that anyone who seeks help relating to QuickBooks issues is always welcome here, so don't hesitate to leave a comment below if you have additional questions about the display of your Income Dashboard. We'll be willing to lend a hand. Take care, and have a good day.
