I want to add some additional context because this issue appears to have been discussed publicly for quite some time.

On the episode of the , titled Alicia Katz Pollock discussed improvements announced for Modern Reports.

At approximately , the discussion specifically addresses the problem of having to manually refresh reports. The episode states that automated report refreshes were and explains that after drilling into a number or changing a transaction, returning to the report should cause it to automatically update.

That means this functionality was being publicly discussed as available nearly .

The issue continued to receive attention during 2026.

On , the episode included an extensive discussion of remaining Modern Reports problems. The episode covers:

* UI/UX drill-down issues at approximately

* Drill-down workflow fixes at approximately

* Other Modern Reports bugs and inconsistencies throughout the episode.

Then, on , the again discussed the Modern Reports rollout. Around , the hosts discussed recent report fixes and specifically noted that users need to periodically retest functionality because Intuit continues fixing things that previously did not work. The episode also stated that the Modern Reports conversion was still occurring in phases.

On , the reported another affecting bank matching, reports, and load times, with reports discussed beginning around .

I have also heard experienced QBO users report that this particular auto-refresh problem no longer exists for them, while our firm continues to experience it.

The stale-report behavior remains consistent in our environment.

So my question to Intuit is no longer whether automatic report refresh is planned.

It appears to have been publicly described as available since , has continued to be discussed through multiple rounds of Modern Reports fixes during 2026, and apparently works correctly for at least some users.

If this is being rolled out by cohort, account, region, or platform version, please provide some transparency around the rollout.

We are paying for the same QuickBooks Online product and should not still be manually refreshing financial reports nearly a year after automatic refresh was publicly described as available.
