QuickBooks Q&A

Does anyone else have issues with their QB Checking account statements being incorrect??? I don't see how I'm supposed to reconcile this account when the statements are wildly inaccurate. I do not understand how they can continue to get away with these shady practices. For example, the month I started the account the statement Account summary shows:Beginning Balance $0Credits +$2,347.70Debits -$1,288.54Ending Balance $1,059.16Calculate that & it comes out correct. However, the actual amounts are as follows:Beginning Balance $0Credits +$2,760.20Debits -$2,160.20Which does NOT come out to the ending balance. They don't show a running balance so there's no way to check the accuracy with that. How can an ACCOUNTING SOFTWARE COMPANY screw up something as simple as addition and subtraction???? Jump to the next month, the summary shows:Beginning Balance $1,059.16(which we've established was incorrect)Credits +$4,176.27Debits -$4,181.01Ending Balance $1,054.42The actual Credits are $6,688.
I'm trying to file my 2024 940, and it says: QuickBooks has determined that you have $23,020.52 in exempt payments. I've never run into this before, why is it not calculating correctly? How do I fix this so I can file my 940? I use QuickBooks Desktop Premier Edition.

I've been asked to make the "Professional" and "Unit" columns have a drop-down menu where someone could select the professional's name / unit of time (hour/day/month). I can't find a tutorial on how to do this anywhere - is it even possible? Using QuickBooks Pro 2023 Desktop.
We use Payroll and also have bank transactions downloaded automatically. These two features produce duplicate transactions:one comes from Payroll and one from the download. I have deleted one of the two transactions in order to reconcile the checking account, but the transactions reappear -- they don't stay deleted. Can you tell me how to permanently delete these transactions so that they stay deleted? One of the transactions has a "R" in the checkmark column and one has a "C", although i have manually cleared the "C" and it didn't help.
I've seen a few posts about this but none answer my question. My client uses Square and QBO (but NOT the Sync w Square app). I see the income they collect via Square coming in through the bank feed, and the transactions land in "Undeposited Funds". I just noticed there are over 5000 transactions there! We have dutifully reconciled so most of those are reconciled ("R") in Undep FUnds. But $1000 is on the balance sheet in this Asset account. Since they are keeping track of all the client payments in Square, I just need to have the bank transactions come directly into my QBO bank account rather than go here. Am I right about that? if so, how do I get them moved and get this changed going forward? Or shouldn't I worry about it? It's the $1000 on the balance sheet that bothers me the most I guess.Thanks!
I am using QuickBooks Desktop, and was notified by a client that the total percentage billed was showing up less on a current invoice that a prior one. After looking into it, I noticed that the "total percentage" is the same as "current percentage" on the "Fee Subtotal" line when there are multiple progressive line items.For example:Progress line A: $10, prior billed 100%Progress line B: $10, prior billed 0%, current billed 50%Subtotal line should read: $20, current billed 50%, total billed 75%.What it's saying: $20, current billed 50%, total billed 50%. I've never noticed this, I guess because the system does it automatically, but the client is indeed correct and I'm not sure how to fix it. The math isn't mathing.

Dear Community,I use Quickbooks Desktop Enterprise and inherited almost 50 hourly wage payroll items that were set up over 20 years ago. How do I find out if an item is Regular Pay, Overtime Pay, Sick Pay, or Vacation Pay? Is it possible to change it from Regular to Sick Pay?
We have found that if we use the spreadsheet sync to upload journal entries we get an error saying that the date is invalid. The date is not invalid, it is formatted correctly and appears completely normal when looked at as text. Calling the support phone reveals that this is a known issue and they have been working on it since 1/21/25. I thought I would mention it here because I have not been able to find this information anywhere else. The status page says that everything is fine. A new twist that I learned today is that, for mysterious reasons, typing in the date (over the date that had been pasted into the template spreadsheet) prevents the error. This would be a very time consuming workaround for our process, but may help for small numbers of entries.
I have two employees that QB desktop payroll service is not withholding enough federal taxes. Every other employee is accurate, but two have a large tax underpayment from last year. Upon review, their federal withholding is roughly an average 2% and much smaller than state withholdings which obviously should not be the case. The payroll tax brackets are updated so it is not that. Also, under their personal payroll information, under employees, they have nothing that stands out and even have the same information as most of the employees who's taxes are being calculated correctly. How do I fix this? This seems to be a problem on the QB payroll service side.
Is there a way I can see how quickbooks came up with each box on W-2? I understand what goes in each box, and I found some random numbers I can't wrap my head around. 2 main errors: 1. Our overtime is exempted from state wages (box 16). Some employee have correct Box 16 (Box 1 - Box 14) and some just have Box 1 amount. 2) Our Local Wage (Box 18) should equal to Box 1, but some have different amount. Their Local Tax (Box 19) is correct though. I called payroll support, but all they could do was to see if my company file have any error, and told me to check with the accountant as they are not licensed to give suggestions? We pay about $3000 per year for this service and I think it's just not fair. Back to my question, is there any way I can see how quickbooks came up with their number?
I am using Enterprise 22.0 One customer has no balance in the customer center. But when I run the AR Aging Summary I see a negative balance. The total for the AR aging is off by this balance when compared to the balance sheet. I have tried to check and see nothing to apply this to an invoice as no invoice or unpaid transaction is in this customer's account. Not sure I need to run Utilities Rebuild or Verify data to clear. Any thoughts? So AR for Customer shows -4,494.00, AR summary is 4,494 lower than the total on the balance sheet.
my Quickbooks Balance in my Chart of Accounts does not show up for each category. Some categories do show a balance or $0.00, but not all. When I click on view register or run report I am able to see the list, but the balance does not show in the Quickbooks Balance column. I have confirmed in settings that Quickbook Balance is turned on. For instance, I know that I have "insurance" category expenses entered, however there is not amount showing in the Quickbooks Balance column showing up. If I click on the associated Run Report button, I can see the transactions. I would like to be able to glance at my Quickbooks Balance column and see all balances.
Aloha,Quickbooks has determined that you have $24,898.28 in exempt payments. Under the classification section the amount is $29,839.94. The amounts are off by $4,941.66. I need help in determing how to find the error and make the necessary adjustments. Mahalo
I'm trying to get a report for our accountant that has the 1099 information. I have no trouble getting the report but it won't print with vendor addresses. This is information that my accountant has to have in order to prepare the 1099. How do I report with addresses? Thank you,Jennifer

Topic - we all got the "invitation" to have Security Metrics handle our PCI Compliance.Situation - I use Merchant Services for all electronic payments and don't want to pay Security Metrics for doing nothing of value. Like many of us, I am INFURIATED with Intuit's lack of responsiveness with respect to those of us who exclusively use Intuit Merchant Services to handle 100% of our electronic payments. By this I mean, I never see or touch a customer credit card and literally everything goes through Intuit payment portals. My hunch is that they get a referral fee for sending people to SecurityMetrics (Intuit's preferred provider)... but that's just my guess. So, here's the deal: 1) You HAVE to complete a self-assessment questionnaire. The easiest place to do this (unfortunately) is through SecurityMetrics. Sign up for an account (it's free) and take the self-assessment. It'll take about 15 minutes, but just do it. You're legally required to do so. If you answer appropriatel
We use classes for our accounting. When viewing a report, such as a balance sheet or p&l, and I want to see transactions that make up a number, I double-click on the number and a transaction report appears showing the transactions that make up that number.This transaction report does not show the class associated with the transaction until I customize the report and add that field.It would be helpful to not have to customize this each time I drill down.
