There are two possible reasons why you're not seeing the option to edit QuickBooks records and sync back, @bobbogino. Let me provide more details about this.
It's noteworthy that the option you're trying to access is available only for QuickBooks Online (QBO) Advanced or Accountant versions, and is only accessible to users with admin-level access. You may consider upgrading to QBO Advanced/Accountant or reaching out to your account administrator for admin privileges, if needed.

To address your initial concern about not seeing the Edit QuickBooks records and sync back option: while Spreadsheet Sync supports batch editing for some transactions, it does not include specific types, such as Expenses, Bills, and Checks. This is why the option is unavailable.
