How do I create accounts payable reports?

When you've entered all your bills in an accounts payable account, the A/P by vendor report summarizes the amount you owe each vendor subtotaled by month. As always, you can customize the report to meet your business needs.

1. Click the Business tab.
2. Click the Reports and choose Accounts Payable.
3. In the Date range fields, select another date range. (Optional)
4. In the Column field, select the columns for the report. (Optional)
5. Click Save Report to save the report. (Optional)

The A/P unprinted checks (Cheques in Canada) by vendor report summarizes the dollar amount of all the unprinted checks in your bank accounts by payee name.

To create the A/P (unprinted checks) by vendor report, create a customized A/P report with the following settings.

1. Click the Business tab.
2. Click the Reports and choose Accounts Payable.
3. In the Date range field, select another date range. (Optional)
4. In the Column field, select Month.
5. Click Customize.
6. Click the Display tab.
7. In the Title field, enter a title such as A/P (unprinted checks) by Vendor.
8. In the Row field, select Payee.
9. Click the Accounts tab.
10. Select the banking accounts you want to include.
    • If you have only business accounts, click Clear All, and then select only the accounts you want to include.
    • If you have several types of accounts, click All Accounts on the left, and then click Clear All. Next click Business and Banking on the left, and select only the accounts you want to include.
11. Click the Advanced tab.
12. In the Status area, select the Newly cleared and Reconciled check boxes, and make sure the Not cleared check box isn't selected.
13. Click OK.
    
    If you're not using Quicken to print checks, the Accounts Payable report still works if you enter all your payables as printable checks. When you pay the bill, go back to the register and record the actual check number in the Num field (just type right over the word Print).
14. Click Save Report to save the report. (Optional)

1. Open the account that you want to use.
2. Click  (the Account Actions icon), and then choose Register Report.
   
   Quicken displays a report showing all the transactions in the register. To get instant insight into just one category or payee at a time, you can also create a minireport.
3. Customize the report or graph. (Optional)
4. Save the report or graph. (Optional)
5. To return to the register, close the report.
