Having issues with a report or graph?
I want a graph, not a report
To select from Quicken's graphs, go to Report menu → Graphs.
Quicken reports display information about your finances in a clear, easy-to-read tabular format. To give you a visual summary of your finances, Quicken can also display your data as bar graphs or pie charts. Click a link below for more information.
Quicken offers robust features to help you manage your financial data, such as creating and customizing reports and graphs that reflect your personal finances. Use this guide to navigate through the process smoothly.
Creating a Report or Graph
- Access the Reports & Graphs Center by selecting the Reports menu → Reports & Graph Center. This serves as your hub for all reporting tools.
- In the Quicken Standard Reports section, click the arrow next to the category that pertains to the information you need, such as Banking.
- Choose the desired report or graph, such as Cash Flow, from the expanded list.
- Set your date range. For comparison reports, you will need to set two date ranges.
Graphs
If a graph is available, there will be a button called Show Graph.
- You can further customize the report by clicking Customize. This will bring up a window with options to customize the Display, Accounts, Categories, Payees, and other Advanced elements of the report. See How do I customize a report or graph? for more information.
Printing and Exporting

Managing columns
Customizing your Quicken reports is straightforward, allowing you to tailor the display to your preferences. Learn how to adjust column sizes, remove unnecessary columns, and choose which columns to display for a clear view of your financial data.
Changing column widths
In many reports, you can adjust your column widths to provide more or less space for certain columns. To do this:
- Hover your cursor over the line between two columns until you see two arrows.
Drag the column in the direction you want to use to expand or reduce the width of the column.
Removing a column
If a column can be removed (many are required) from a report, you will see a small x if you hover over the column name.
Click the x to close the column.
Selecting the columns to include
You may also find a column icon at the far right of the report. You can use that to select what columns to include or remove.
If this option is not available, it means all the columns are required.
