Thanks for your reply, but I'm not trying to print the Chart of Accounts, I want to change the order the accounts show up in the reports.

 

We are not using account numbers, but with the desktop QuickBooks, that was no problem as we could arrange the Chart of Accounts in the order we wanted then all of the reports would list the accounts in that order. Of course, the Balance Sheet and P&L always have the big categories in Accounting order and we're not trying to change that. But in the Expense accounts, for instance, QBOnline seems to only list the accounts in alphanumeric order.

 

I assume we could turn on account numbers then assign the numbers in the order we want with the reports showing accounts in numerical order, but your answer makes me question that (I have to switch to Classic view and export?).

 

We could also make up account names that will cause the alphanumeric sort order to be the order we want, but that gives us some awkward names. We could possibly add a number as part of the name.
