Hello there, Ali. I'm here to share details about the transaction number of your exported report in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT).

You're correct, QBDT automatically assigns transaction numbers for various transactions, including invoices, bills, sales receipts, and checks.

A possible reason why the number jumped from 182125 to 182141 is that there are transactions recorded between them that don't have transaction numbers like liability checks. When sorting numbers in Excel, the sequence will display the numbers in ascending or descending order, regardless of any missing numbers in between.

That said, I recommend double-checking your transactions in QBDT to verify if there are transactions numbered 182126 to 182140. If there is, please customize the reports before exporting them to ensure the transaction numbers appear correctly in Excel.

Additionally, you can memorize your reports to save your current customization for future use.

Let us know if you have other concerns with your transaction numbers in QBDT. We're here to help you in any way we can.
