Question

Banking Rule Limitation??

  • December 28, 2022

Our company has thousands of credit card banking transactions every month and rules help to automatically add those transactions to the right vendors.  I have hit 2000 rules and it now states that "Something’s not quite right You have reached the maximum limit for creating rules. Please delete some unused rules, to add a new rule."  Is there really a limit on the number of rules you can create?....how can I resolve this?  Manually adding transactions in our account would be very time consuming.

Hi Duller03,

 

Thank you for letting us know about the error you received when trying to add bank rules. I can see how much it would help if you can add more, knowing the number of transactions you have.

 

As of the moment, we haven't got any news about having a limit for the number of bank rules. It's not stated in the articles for bank rules and usage limit. Therefore, I would recommend doing the browser troubleshooting steps to see if the error is just caused by random browser issues. However, if you still get the same behavior, you'll want to contact our QBO Support so they can gather more data using more tools to investigate this further.

 

We can start by signing in to your QBO company using a private window. This step will disable the extensions and stops the cache from saving your search history.

 

  • Google Chrome: Ctrl + Shift + N.
  • Safari: Command + Shift + N.
  • MS Edge and Firefox: Ctrl + Shift + P.

 

If private browsing lets you create more rules, you can clear your browser's cache. If not, please use a different browser to see if this only happens to the one you are using.

 

To contact our QBO Support:

 

  1. Go to Help and select the Search tab.
  2. Click Contact Us at the bottom.
  3. Enter a sentence to describe the issue and click Continue.
  4. Choose Chat or Callback.

 

I'm just right here if you have more questions about bank rules or anything about QuickBooks. Have a good one!

Thanks for the response.  I already have attempted to clear my cache and use an incognito browser window to see if there would be any difference but unfortunately not.  I also did chat online with support and they had no definitive answer for me either.  They basically said that there is no limit to rules but if you do a lot of transactions there could be a limit.  I mean what??   there is no limit but there is a limit?....I dont get it.

Yes, we have also been facing this issue we could not create rules after 700, is there such limitation?
