I'm looking for a way to print/create a report of expenses by category. Seems like something every business would want to know.

I know another way to pull up that data, alext-pobox-com.

You can run the Transaction Detail by Account report in QuickBooks Online. Then, customize it to view your expenses grouped by category. I'll show you how to do it:

1. Go to the Reports menu.
2. Under For my accountant, select Transaction Detail by Account.
3. Click the Customize button, then set the appropriate report date and accounting method.
4. Tick the Split checkbox, under Rows/Columns.
5. Head to the Filter section and select these options from the Transaction Type drop-down menu:
   • Bill
   • Bill Payment (Check)
   • Bill Payment (Credit Card)
   • Cash Expense
   • Check
   • Credit Card Expense
   • Credit Card Credit
   • Vendor Credit
6. Choose All Expenses Accounts from the Distribution Account drop-down menu.
7. Hit Run report.

This is how it looks like after the customization:
