Frequently Asked Questions

What is Financials in Digits?

Financials gives you a centralized, audit-ready view of performance across your books. Review standard statements, explore category-level details, customize client-ready reports, and automate recurring reporting.

Why are my AR/AP Aging reports empty?

Two common reasons:

  • Cutover Date — AR/AP reports only include activity recorded after the entity’s cutover date. You can find this in Settings → Accounting.

  1. QBO Connections — Digits does not import legacy bills or invoices from QuickBooks Online. QBO-connected users may see empty reports until items are recreated in Digits.
