Receipts

Friendly names for creators

Turn a creator email into a recognizable name.

A little less friction.

Map an email displayed in a supported creator column to a name you recognize. Aliases help you read the list and creator filters without changing the record’s author in QuickBooks.

How to use it

  1. Open extension settings and find Receipts Page.
  2. Enter the creator’s email and a display name. Choose Add.
  3. Open a supported list with that creator information and review the displayed alias.
  4. Remove or replace an alias in settings when it is no longer needed.

What that looks like

Illustrative example

Map bookkeeper@example.com to Alex in the extension. A supported creator cell then displays Alex while the original QBO author record remains unchanged.

Good to know before you start

What you need

  • A valid email address and a non-empty display name.
  • A supported table with a matching creator email.

Scope & limitations

  • Aliases are display preferences, not changes to QBO user identity or permissions.
  • Aliases can appear in browser-synced settings and exported backups. Share backups deliberately.

Something look different? Visit help & support. QuickBooks changes its interface, and available controls depend on your company and permissions.
