Hey Tmau,
Thank you for reaching out to the QuickBooks Community! If you are wanting to add an account to the Chart of Accounts, here's how to do it in QuickBooks Online:
- Go to Settings ⚙ and select Chart of Accounts.
- Select New. Depending on your account view, you'll see a panel labeled New account or New category.
Add the necessary information and save. I am adding this link, which includes a video presentation and additional steps when choosing a New Account or New Category. However, if you are using a QuickBooks Desktop account, follow these steps below:
- Go to the Lists menu, then select Chart of Accounts.
- From the Account ▼dropdown, select New.
- Select an account type, then choose Continue.
- Complete the account details.
- Select Save & Close.
For more information, this link includes instructions on adding, editing, and deleting accounts in QuickBooks Desktop.
If you need clarification or additional assistance, please let us know! My team and I are ready to help. Bye for now.
