Is there anybody in Quickbooks that knows anything about double entry bookkeeping?

 

What is the point in even having a sales dashboard graph if no one in Quickbooks knows how to pick the relevant data. The only thing that should be included is sales revenues, what on earth was whoever set up this graph on when they thought it would be a good idea to include sales deposits as well as basically you are then double counting. You make a sales of say £100,000 plus VAT in a month. Your sales revenue for the month is £100,000. But oh no, Quickbooks have a better idea lets also add in the receipt/deposit for those sales in to the figure i.e. £120,000 (£100,000 + VAT as clearly you know nothing about basic accounting). So instead of showing the correct sales figure on your dashboard of £100,000 some Einstein at Quickbooks thought it would be good to show a sales figure of £220,000 being the £100,000 sales plus the receipt for that sale plus the relevant VAT. Totally unreal, you couldn't make it up - but clearly Quickbooks can. And this has been showing this way from probably whenever Quickbooks was first set up. Please sort it out, we all know Quickbooks do some stupid things but why make it so obvious!!!
