Hi kylie-davis,

 

I can clear this up. The accounts that say 'Account History' are Balance Sheet accounts, whereas the ones that say 'Run Report' are Profit & Loss accounts. This is how QuickBooks Online is set up and can't be changed. Transactions posted in QBO to a Balance Sheet account are shown in an 'account history', and entries in a P&L account are based off those transactions and displayed in a Report.
