If you run reports that have deposits on them, you'll find that the Name column is blank. Most transactions have what we call an Account and a Distribution Account. For example, when you write a check, the bank account is the Account and the expense account is the Distribution Account. The name gets saved with the Account.
For most reports, the name displays on the report. Bank Deposits are different. They do not have an Account, just a Distribution Account, so the name doesn't display on a report.
Some reports will allow you to add columns such as a column for Client, Vendor/Supplier and Employee. If you add these columns, you will see the name(s) that are on the deposit.
If you need to see a name on a deposit, try using the Transaction Detail by Account report:
1. Click Reports on the left navigation panel.
2. Search for the Transaction Detail by Account report,
3, Click Customize.
4. Now click the Change Columns button.
5. Highlight and Add the name types Client, Employee and Vendor/Supplier.
7. Adjust other options as needed, and then click Run Report.
If you have more than one split-line with names in the deposit, create a Deposit Detail report. This report should show the names on all the split-lines.
