Question

Where would I find the account numbers for my general ledger? It doesn't appear to be a column in the Chart of accounts that I can show.

Let me help you locate the account number in the columns of your Chart of accounts, @scott-callairkee.

 

Once you enable the account numbers from the settings they will show up on your chart of accounts. In your case, it's possible that you can't see the account numbers in one of the columns in the chart of accounts. Because you didn't check the number in your chart of account settings.

 

To make that happen here are the steps:

 

  1. Sign in to your QuickBooks Online account.
  2. Hover your mouse to Transactions, then click on Chart of Accounts.
  3. Click on the Gear Icon of the Chart of Accounts section, and make sure to check the Number under columns.
