Ran a report before the item was categorized, it is still show as "uncategorized"

I ran my end of year report and then categorized any missed items. Why is my report still showing them as "uncategorized"? If the database is online and updated immediately why is this an issue?

Hi @KrehbielNatural, we appreciate you reaching out.

When you have a moment could you clarify when the items were added and when the report was ran? In order for the reports to be ran successfully, the items would need to be added first for the report to update correctly.

Let us know and we can take a deeper look for you!

No items were added. It's a category update to the items. Then I re-ran the reports and the sales are still uncategorized.

The issue is you created an Item with Category Uncatorgarized, made a sale of that item.   Now Square will not change that Transacation.  So when you made that item into Merchandise Category for example all future sales will show as category Merchandise, but no changes will be made to Previous transactions.
