We have delete multiple custom reports individually and they keep showing up the next time we log in. My After deleting old outdated custom reports, my screen showed that only 46 custom reports remained. However, the client we work with sees approximately 240 when she logs in and is asking why they are not being deleted (when I have deleted them MANY MANY TIMES)! Another user sees only 29 custom reports and another user sees 192. Why is this happening and how can we resolve so we all see the same number (and hopefully same titles) of custom reports.

I understand your concern with custom reports not being deleted consistently across different users in QuickBooks. Let me explain why this might be happening and provide a solution, @LSF5M.

In QuickBooks, custom reports can be shared among users. When a custom report is created by one user and shared with others, deleting the report will only remove it from the view of the users it was shared with. The user who created the report will still be able to see it.

In your case, it seems that some users are seeing different numbers of custom reports because they have either created their reports or have received reports that were shared with them.

To address this issue and ensure consistency among users, I suggest the following steps:

Go to Reports and select the Custom reports tab.
Find the group on the list.
Select Edit ▼ icon from the Action column for the report you want to delete.
Choose Delete and Yes.
