Allied Irish Bank feed upgrade

As part of our process to upgrade to open banking connections, customers who currently have Allied Irish Bank connections are required to re-validate your account in QuickBooks.

To upgrade your existing, follow the steps below:

1. Go to Transactions, then select Bank transactions (Take me there). On your AIB bank card, go to the For review section and accept or exclude all the transactions.
2. Once done, you need to disconnect the account:
   1. Select the pencil ✎ icon in the account card and select Edit account info.
   2. When the account information window appears, scroll to the bottom and select on Disconnect this account on save.
   3. Select Save and close. Note: this will make the card icon disappear from the banking screen. The account has not been deleted and can be found in your chart of accounts along with any transactions.
3. You can now reconnect the bank account. To do this:
   1. Go to Bank transactions (Take me there) and select Add Account.
   2. Search for AIB (ROI) and follow the instructions on screen to re-establish that accounts bank connection.

Why is this happening?
