How can I get the inventory valuation detail report to show the product/service?  I've tried all the customization features but only get the product number - not the description.  Thanks.

I appreciate you for exploring the customization options on the report, LeAnn. Let's walk through a few additional troubleshooting steps to get this sorted out. I’m here to assist you every step of the way.

 

First, let’s make sure that the descriptions for your inventory items are entered correctly. This ensures that QuickBooks Online (QBO) has the right data to display in your reports.

 

  1. Navigate to the Sales menu on the left-hand side.
  2. Select Products and Services.
  3. Ensure that the descriptions are correctly entered in the Name column.
  4. Click Edit under Action to edit the basic info of the product.
  5. Select Save once done. 

 

Next, run your report in an incognito browser to bypass any cache issues that might be causing the problem. This helps isolate issues by preventing stored cache data from interfering. Log in to your QuickBooks account through an incognito window.

 

  • Google Chrome: Press Ctrl + Shift + N
  • Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Edge: Press Ctrl + Shift + P
  • Safari: Press Command + Shift + N

 

If the report displays correctly in incognito mode, the issue is related to your browser’s cache. Clear the cache from your regular browser to refresh and fix display issues caused by stored data.

The names are showing correctly in products and services.  I used a different browser with the same result.  Still not showing the names of the products.  Any other thoughts?  Thanks.
