I'm happy to see you here in the Community, @-mqrparish-org.
I'd like to make sure we're on the same page so I can give you the right amount of information. To start with, can I ask what platform or service are you using prior to converting to QuickBooks Online? Any further details about this matter would be a great help for me to narrow down this concern.
On the other hand, if you've utilized QuickBooks Desktop before, you can run and customize the date of the Profit & Loss report as well as the Balance Sheet depending on your desired period in QuickBooks Online.
To do that:
Click on Reports at the left pane.
Look for Profit &Loss or Balance Sheet at the search box.
From the Report period section, enter your desired date.
