Thank you for reaching out, @263125.

 

To assist you better, could you provide more details about your concern? Could you clarify which account name you're trying to change?

 

If you're referring to an account name in the Chart of Accounts, here's how you can change it:

 

  1. Click on the Gear icon and select Chart of Accounts.
  2. From the View register dropdown menu, choose Edit.
  3. After updating the account name, click Save.

 

If the account you’re referring to is a bank or credit card account that’s connected to QuickBooks Online through online banking, here’s how you can edit its name:

 

  1. Go to the Transaction menu and select Bank transactions.
  2. In the account details, click the pencil icon.
  3. Choose Edit account info to update the account name.
  4. Then, click Save.
