Advance Bank Feeds for Canadian Desktop Version of Quickbooks is missing.

Hello Lord Sloth,

QuickBooks is designed to help you save time for the things you love. I'll be happy to share more info so you can get back to doing what you love. 

I can see the importance of having the Advanced bank feeds on the Canadian version of QuickBooks. I encourage you to send feedback to our developers by clicking the Help menu and looking for Send Feedback Online. New product ideas and improvements are largely based on the feedback we get from users like you. 

In the meantime, feel free to ask other questions, I'll be one message away. 

I'm a little confused on the advance/improved Bank Feeds in the Canadian Edition of Quickbooks 2021

When I downloaded the trial version of Quickbooks 2021 Canadian Edition, it had no improved Bank Feeds.

However, a major retailer (SAASDirect) is advertising Improved Bank Feeds (ie. QBO style Bank Feed Features) at:

https://www.saasdirect.ca/product/quickbooks-desktop-premier-2021-outright/

Either the Free Trial of Quickbooks Premier 2021 was never updated, or SAASDirect is mispresenting your product.

JamesM4, if you can please clarify, that would be appreciated.

Hi Lord Sloth,

Thanks for bringing that to our attention. QuickBooks has many products, and sometimes the product varies by region. I can't comment on the particular product in the ad, but I can look into it further. I can share with you the "What's New" for the 2021 Canadian Desktop product.

Feel free to reach back out if you have any questions. Take care.

It sucks not to have advanced bank feeds in the Canadian desktop version even in the 2022 version.

I find it very frustrating, that the Canadian version is not the same as the US ones. One understands the difference where regulation/tax laws dictate so. But for a common and very important feature like Bank Feeds, it is disappointing.

Most of the learning material/videos are based on the US version. And for a Canadian user, it is annoying to see the features but to later find out that these features it’s "not for you".

And then you realize, as a Canadian user, you have to figure out which video/learning material you can use because you are not part of your US counterparts.

Thanks for posting your insights and feedback about the display preferences QuickBooks, @Jamal_Source_Accounting.

Please know that we would love to hear your requests or suggestions for QuickBooks Desktop banking. However, we can't provide the turnaround time if they will release additional banking preferences like those of the US versions. They work on product enhancements internally.

To add your product suggestions to our developers about our invoice template preferences, go to the Help menu and select Send Feedback Online.

Reach out to back to me if you need further assistance while working with QuickBooks preferences. I'm always here to help. Have a great rest of the day.

Is there any chance that QBD 2021 will ever see an update that includes Advanced banking feeds?

Hello TheBossMan. Thanks for chiming in on this thread. I'll be happy to share more info so you're on the right track with achieving your goals. While there isn't news about the QB 2021 updating to more Advanced Banking feeds, I encourage you to send feedback about this to our engineers. You can send feedback by clicking on the Help menu and looking for Send Feedback Online. In the meantime, feel free to ask other questions, I'm here to assist. 

Can you confirm if Advanced Bank Feeds was added to Quickbooks Premier 2023 Canadian edition?  

If not, how do you expect Canadian businesses to switch to a subscription model if you keep offering an inferior product when compared to the American edition?
