link bank account

Thanks for coming into this forum, Rdod1152. Let me provide insights to help you link your banking account to your company data.

When we connect our bank or credit card account, we have to determine how our bank sends the downloaded transaction. We'll have to connect only the parent account if the transactions are downloaded to one account. If the transactions download to the individual accounts, connect the subaccounts and not the parent account.

In your case, we'll have to disconnect all the subaccounts and then connect only the parent account. This way, you'll only have to reconcile the parent account since all the transactions in the subaccounts are rolled up into it. You can refer to this link to disconnect the subaccounts: Disconnect or delete an account from the Downloaded Transactions page.

Once done, we can create subaccounts in your chart of accounts to break down your bank transactions into greater detail. To do this:

1. Click the Gear ⚙ icon.
2. Choose Chart of Accounts.
3. Click New. 
4. Select the account type and detail type.
5. Click the Is sub-account option and then enter the parent account.
6. Enter the necessary information.
7. Hit Save and Close

For future reference, I've included the following resource to ensure that downloaded bank and credit card transactions are properly reviewed: Categorize and match online bank transactions in QuickBooks Online.

I'll always be around in this thread if there's anything else you need further assistance with when managing bank connections and transactions. Just let me know in the comments below and I'll make sure to get you covered. Keep safe!
