This is only for QuickBooks Desktop 2017 and later.

Will show users in the reports even if they were deleted prior to QuickBooks Desktop 2017, going back to QuickBooks Desktop 2014.

Enhanced selection of filters. QuickBooks Desktop 2017 has improved the selection of multiple names for filters on reports. Filters that allow you to select multiple names, such as Customer, Item, Vendor, or Account filter, have an improved user interface. This allows you to easily select all names, de-select all names, and find individual names.

Scheduled Reports. If you email reports on a regular basis, it is now possible to set up a schedule report so that the memorized report will be E-mailed automatically.  You also get to choose the time of the day and the frequency the reports are sent. However for this to work you have to ensure that the company file is in single user mode only and the computer is not in sleep mode, hibernation, or turned off the moment the report is scheduled to run.
