Hello, DebAngerman.
Missing features like columns and the inability to modify events are often caused by data issues. I can provide troubleshooting steps here to get this resolve and so you can continue to run the business.
You can utilize the Verify Rebuild Data tool in QuickBooks Desktop. It identifies the most commonly known data issues within your company file while resolving it right away.
If the program is in multi-user mode, you need to change to single-user mode (Go to File -> Switch to Single User Mode). It's very important to create a backup copy of your company file before running Verify and Rebuild Data.
Verify Data:
- Press the File menu.
- Choose Utilities from the drop-down option.
- Select Verify Data.
- Tap Ok to continue.
Note: If the verify process is successful, you are done. In case it fails due to some problem, QuickBooks will notify you to run Rebuild data.
Rebuild Data:
- Click the File tab at the top.
- Select Utilities from the drop-down option.
- Choose Rebuild Data.
- Click Ok on Rebuild has completed.
