Get accrual or cash basis QuickBooks Online reports

Name the company, dates and accounting basis in your request. Connect can request accrual or cash basis profit and loss and balance sheet reports from QuickBooks Online.

First connect QuickBooks and finish your AI app’s setup. Start a conversation with Connect enabled. Use your client names, reporting dates and the basis your firm needs in each request.

Get an accrual profit and loss

Replace Northwind Logistics LLC with a connected client’s name and September 2026 with your reporting month:

Show the September 2026 accrual profit and loss for Northwind Logistics LLC. Confirm the company, report dates, accounting basis and currency. Do not change any records.

QuickBooks returns the report period, basis, currency, account rows and section totals. Ask your app to show those figures alongside its explanation.

Get cash basis reports

Use the same client and reporting date for the profit and loss and balance sheet:

For Northwind Logistics LLC, return the September 2026 cash basis profit and loss and a cash basis balance sheet as of September 30, 2026. Label each report with the company, dates, currency and basis returned by QuickBooks. Show its account rows and totals. Do not change any records.

The profit and loss covers the requested month. The balance sheet shows balances as of the requested date.

Collect reports across clients

Keep client companies in the same workspace. Each person can use the companies granted to them.

Show the connected QuickBooks client companies I can access. If there are more than three, ask me which three to use. For up to three clients, return the September 2026 accrual profit and loss and an accrual balance sheet as of September 30, 2026. Also get each client's September cash flow statement. Keep each client's reports separate and preserve each company's currency. Show the company and dates for every report, and the basis returned by QuickBooks for each profit and loss and balance sheet. Finish with a table of the reports returned for each client. Do not change any records.

Check that the answer groups statements by client and finishes with a report checklist. Keep different companies and currencies separate when reviewing totals.

Confirm the report labels

Check the company, reporting dates and currency. For each profit and loss and balance sheet, check the basis QuickBooks returned. Ask the app to show that report’s header if the basis is missing from its answer.

Compare with QuickBooks using the same dates and basis. If the basis is wrong, ask the app to rerun that report with the accounting basis stated explicitly.
