I'm also seeing an audit trail flaw, kinda. Or maybe its just a "QB sensitivity issue"? Curious if anyone has seen what I'm about to describe. Ultimately it seems to come down to a "distinction without a difference" but some of my users are bothered by it! NOTE: Using QB Enterprise Desktop
So here's the deal:
User A sets up an invoice, saves, and closes. The next day, User B accesses the same invoice to attach a copy of the Customer's PO. Or maybe User B corrected the spelling of something. Minor stuff that has no material impact on the transaction --- the financial aspects of the transaction --- whatsoever.
When the audit trail is run, of course, it will show what User A originally set up and also it will indicate there's been a change by User B. No problem so far.
However, the link to the Income account under the original User A version shows the full Parent and Sub-Account name (e.g., 4000.00 REVENUE: 4010.00 Product Sales). What the audit trail shows as a change made by User B is that now the full Parent and Sub-Account name are abbreviated, so the report indicates the change that occurred is that now the Item used in the original invoice by User A is linked to "4010.00 Product Sales"
Distinction without a difference?
Ultimately the target income acc't is the same (4010.00 Product Sales) except we're not sure why QB would even register this as some sort of change when (a) there was no change to the Item at all; and (b) its not really a change!
I've checked the chart of accounts and drilled down to my income, COG, and inventory accounts and thankfully not seeing any duplicates or other mischief that would set off alarm bells.
Can anyone explain? I think its more of a curiosity question at this point. Thank you kindly!
