Question

Statement of Activity report does not display name if deposit has multiple line items

When a deposit has multiple line items, the donor or vendor name does not display in the "Name" column on the Statement of Activity report.  I have confirmed that the "Received From" field is filled for every row on the Deposit screen.  However, if a deposit only has one line item, then the name successfully displays on the report. 

 

I've seen posts with similar issues on other reports.  Is this a known bug?

I should clarify that I'm having the issue on the Statement of Activity Detail report.

Allow me to share some insights about running the report, @bmtfoltreasurer.

 

Since the names entered on the deposit is intended for specific line items, the Statement of Activity Detail report won't display it for it doesn't represent the name of the entry. Also, since the report's primary objective is to show the revenues and expenses of a company, the source will provide details specific to its purpose.

 

As workaround, you can pull up the Deposit Detail report. This will show all deposits linked to a specific name. Here's how:

 

  1. Select the Reports menu and type Deposit Detail in the Search bar.
  2. Click it to open the report.
  3. If you want to add customization, just select the Customize button.

This is a long time limitation of Quickbooks Online -- it is especially frustrating for nonprofits where deposits are many lines of individual donors and yet you can't see the donor names on reports like Statement of Activity.  Quickbook has been saying for years that they will address but they never do.  They should create a field that can be added to a custom report.
