I've got a problem with the Dashboard Sales figures. It appears that any money deposits made get included in the Dashboard sales figure. Is this a bug?

Hi DGS,

Thank you for contacting QuickBooks Community! I'm glad to share information about the Sales graph flow.

The sales figure shown in the Dashboard on a specific period is made up of paid invoices, adjustment notes, and sales transactions.  Other transactions such as journal entries posted to sales account, sales tax, and other income transactions like bank deposits will not be displayed.

To resolve this concern, make sure that all deposits are categorized as bank deposits so that these will not count on the sales graph in the Dashboard.  You can always open the Sales by Customer Summary report to view the details of your sales graph.

Here's how:

1. Click Reports on the left pane.
2. In the search box, type in Sales by Customer Summary.
3. Filter the Report period.
4. Click the Run Report button.
5. Check each deposit and change it to a bank deposit.
6. Click Save and Close.
