How to stop indirect edit by system?

You can stop these automatic changes by turning off features like Bank Rules, Automatic Matching, Suggested Categorization, and Auto-Applying Credits/Bill Payments in your settings. It is also worth checking the Audit Log to see if other users are making edits. Sometimes, a change someone else makes to a primary entry will cause the system to automatically adjust the linked transactions.

To disable a bank rule, follow the steps below:

1. From the left menu, hover over All apps, Accounting, and choose Rules.
2. Locate the rule and choose Disable from the Actions dropdown arrow.

Here are resources you can check to disable the other features I mentioned above:

• Categorize online bank transactions in QuickBooks Online
• Automatically match QuickBooks Online product transactions
• Create and apply credit memos or delayed credits in QuickBooks Online
• Use the audit log in QuickBooks Online
