Question: Can I add calculations to reports in QB Premier?
Answer: Yes. QB Premier has a wide array of reports, and you can access the QuickBooks Community for contributed reports.
All QB Premier reports can be expanded by way of a link to Excel. Click on Excel at the top of the report, and select “create a new worksheet” or “add to an existing worksheet.” The data will then be put into an Excel file, which will give you a great deal of flexibility to manage the report, add calculations or perform edits, so the report is shown and calculated exactly as you want.
