Don't waste time guessing where a particular transaction in QuickBooks was posted. Get to the details with a few quick and easy shortcuts.

- Click Reports > Transaction Journal
- Press CTRL + Y on your keyboard
No matter which of the options you choose, the transaction detail report will appear and help you understand exactly how the entry posted into your QuickBooks chart of accounts as shown below:
