Question

Journal Entry Name Field

I manually enter our payroll breakdown into Quickbooks after running our payroll through a different program.

Previously we classified jobs as classes for our own job tracking.  We have switched over to tracking them by Projects since Quickbooks has now limited the amount of classes unless we want to upgrade to a larger package.  

 

When entering the journal entry for our payroll breakdown, I select the project from the Name field so it gets included in each project correctly.

When going back into the Journal entry to view the entries, the Name field where each job should be doesn't show up.  I have to click into each one individually to view which one it is.  Any assistance to be able to view that field when going into a journal entry would be much appreciated.  I was and still am able to view the classes field without clicking in so I'm able to get a full view which is what I need the Name column to do.

 

Thanks!!

Hello TD-JC, 

 

Thanks for reaching out to us here. QuickBooks is a powerful program that helps you get ahead with your work. I'll be happy to steer you in the right direction so you can get back to doing what you love. 

 

I can see the benefit of being able to view the Name field when viewing your Journal Entries. Since this feature isn't available yet, I encourage you to send feedback to our engineers. You can do this by clicking the Gear icon and looking for Feedback. New product features and enhancements are largely based on the feedback we get from users like you. 

 

Let me know if you have questions. I'll be here in case you need anything else.

Thanks for the response.

 

I find it interesting that it's not something that can be automatically viewed.  All the other fields show up.

 

I'll request it.  It is very frustrating that the program is limiting classes but then not having viewable important information when switching to another method of tracking.

 

I appreciate letting me know and I will indeed leave feedback.

And now it's showing up.  Hopefully it was just a glitch earlier when I couldn't see it!
