For a credit car register: error: "Cannot generate a QuickReport without a name"

In QuickBooks Desktop 2020, I just just generated my first QuickReport for my Bank's bank register without a problem by clicking the QuickReport button appearing on the top of the register, nice feature..

 

Then I went into the 'bank register' for my business credit card and tried to do the same As shown in image, In this credit card's register, as soon as I click the QuickReport button, instead, I receive the error "Cannot generate a QuickReport without a name."   There's nowhere to enter a name???

 

If a QuickReport is not available for Credit Cards. It should be grayed-out.

 

Thanks in advance for advice.

I can help you generate the QuickReport in QuickBooks Desktop, @AL_Debit.

 

To get rid of the error message, let's ensure to select a transaction before clicking the QuickReport button. 

 

Here's how: 

  1. Open your company file.

  3. Select your business credit card account and click OK.
  4. Choose a transaction and click the QuickReport button.

Only works if a Name is specified on selected transaction. Ok, I get it.
