A month-end report won't explain every change.
A month-end P&L may show lower profit. You still need to compare periods, identify the accounts that moved, and check the transactions behind them.
Match the periods and accounts
Compare equivalent periods and account groups before attributing a change in profit or cash.
A follow-up needs the same context
Ask another question in the same Claude conversation without re-exporting the report.
Decide what happens next
Verify the records, then make any approved changes directly in QuickBooks.
