Fixed Asset Manager

I had another user update Asset specs in FAM like G/L Accounts and Convention, but when I log into QB I can't see any of these updates.  Shouldn't I be able to see them?  Is there some way to sync the updates from User1 so I can view them under my user ID?

Hello NMichRocks,

 

Thank you for reaching out to the QuickBooks Community! I suggested running an Audit Report to view any events or transactions made on the user profile once logged in as admin. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to Settings and select Audit log.
  2. Click Filter.
  3. Use the fields on the Filter panel to choose the appropriate User, Date, or Events filter to narrow the results.
  4. Hit Apply.

 

Please let me know if you were able to see those updates! Looking forward to your response.

In your instructions, "go to Settings"  is this for the QB Enterprise Desktop version?  Where do I find Settings in the desktop version?

I appreciate the time you've taken to follow the suggested steps by my colleague, @NMichRocks. I'll ensure you can run an Audit Trail Report in QuickBooks Desktop to verify if there have been changes made by another user to your asset financial information.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Reports in the main menu.
  2. Choose Account and Taxes and select Audit Trail.
  3. Then, filter the dates in the report.

 

From there, you can verify the changes made by the other user. It could be the cause of why you can't view the update in your asset specs.

 

I've included a screenshot for your reference:

When I am logged into QB on my computer I see one set of info in Fixed Asset Manager.  When I log into QB on another computer I see another set of info in Fixed Asset Manager.  Why is that?  They should be the same.  I am using the same user login.

Good evening, @NMichRocks

 

Thanks for chiming back in on this thread with some additional information and a helpful screenshot. 

 

To dig further into this issue, can you check both of files on each computer to see if ALL of your other data is the same within each of them? 

 

This will help us give you a better solution for your business and see what might be causing this to occur. I'll be waiting for your response!
