Anyone having issues with uploading bank transactions through CSV?
I keep on having an error "Some info may be missing from your file. Double-check that your file is complete and try uploading again."
I have checked my CSV file multiple times, followed the correct instruction but it' still not working.
Any help is very much appreciated. Thank you.

Hello, jtmonton.
You may encounter this error when the CSV file’s format is incorrect, or the template doesn’t meet the specific requirements. Please note that the maximum file size is 350 KB.
If the file exceeds the limit, shorten the date range and download transactions in smaller batches. To know more about how you can check the format, check out this link: Format CSV files in Excel to get bank transactions into QuickBooks.
Additionally, missing info can be also caused by several factors. We can also consider the interrupted connection. When there are connection faults during the download process, some transactions won’t be downloaded successfully. When importing your bank transactions, there are certain factors to consider.
Check out the additional pointers below that will guide you in reformatting your CSV file:
Please know that the standard date format is dd/mm/yyyy (01/02/20). I would also recommend shortening your description so that the program will be able to easily read your bank transactions.
Once verified, you can re-import your transactions following the correct format. You can use these articles for more detailed steps in importing your transactions:

Hi AileneA,
Thanks for the reply.
All of the factors considered below are correctly followed:
1. Size file is just 1KB.
2. File type is in CSV.
3. No blank lines.
4. Format is correct (no special characters)
5. Date format is dd/mm/yyyy
I have attached a screenshot of the lines being captured in QBO but does not proceed when selecting "Continue".
Appreciate your additional help.
Thanks

I'm getting the same error but QB support exited the chat without resolving the issue
This isn't the kind of experience we'd like you to have, lhudybernal. Let me share some information so we can address your issue right away.
First, you need to check the correct columns QuickBooks use when mapping your data. The three mandatory fields needed to import your file are Date, Description and Amount Columns.
Additionally, each bank has it's own format for CSV file. Remove the other fields or change the name of the columns in your CSV to match the titles in QuickBooks.. You can use this article as your guide: Format CSV files in Excel to get bank transactions into QuickBooks.

I'm here to provide troubleshooting steps so you can successfully upload your CSV file to QuickBooks, @lhudybernal.
Before anything else, I appreciate your efforts and thank you for sharing your file with us. I can now access it.
When uploading CSV files to QuickBooks, you'll want to ensure columns are only 3 or 4 and dates are in one format.
Based on your attached document, you have 4 columns. To sort this out, you can either delete the Received column to match the 3-column format or follow the 4-column format that contains the Credit and Debit column. Check out this article to learn more about the CSV formats: Format CSV files in Excel to get bank transactions into QuickBooks.
If the issue persists, open your QuickBooks Online account in a private or incognito window for testing. You can use these shortcuts keys below for quick navigation:
After logging in, redo the process. If you can import the file, get back to your regular browser and clear its cache. Doing this helps the program to run better. You can also use other supported browsers as an alternative.
Once everything is good, you can directly categorise and match your online bank transactions in the program. Then, use this reference to ensure your account are balanced and accurate: Reconcile an account in QuickBooks Online.

Hi,
I'm posting this here in case it's helpful to anyone else. For some reason I was facing the same even though I had been able to upload files previously. And I tried all the solutions that were suggested in this thread. I even tried to upload different files. I happened to go back and look at the previous uploads and I realised that this time I was trying to upload into a sub account. When I switched to the parent account that I'd used before, it worked fine. Perhaps you've been trying to upload into a sub account?
Thank you thank you thank you. This solved the problem for me.
We appreciate you for coming back, Kitt1.

I’m having issues uploading
Hi there, Fnk09.
In order to assist you with your concern, I'd like to gather some information. Could you please let me know what specific issues you're having when uploading the CSV file? Any relevant screenshots about your concern would help me provide the best assistance.
Your cooperation is greatly appreciated and will help me provide you with the most accurate information. I look forward to hearing back from you soon so we can resolve this matter as quickly as possible.
I am having a similar issue. I've upload a number of times. Now, the upload is accepting a portion the file and not the rest. I'm getting the red stop sign with an exclamation point in the middle for the transactions that are not accepted. The entire file is formatted the same.
Hello, @Drewppy.
I'm here to ensure you can upload CSV format files in QuickBooks,
Before we start, I'd like to know the exact error message you're seeing so I can ensure we're on the same.
One potential cause for this error is an incorrect format and mapping of the CSV file.
To fix this, ensure you've selected the accurate columns during the mapping stage; otherwise, QuickBooks won't be able to interpret the data properly. To simplify this process, consider the following steps:
Additionally, please take note that not all banks create their CSV files the same way, so you may need to make extra changes to get your transactions in.

Hi and thank you for replying. The strange thing is that ~50% of the file is uploading properly while the other half is getting an error. This leads me to believe that is not a format error.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention, @Drewppy. We prioritize your experience by ensuring a streamlined transaction process in QuickBooks Online. Let me assist you in resolving your concern.
I'd like to gather more information about the issue you're facing. Could you please let me know the exact error message or a screenshot that contains the error? Any additional details you give will help me provide appropriate instructions. In the meantime, you can try uploading it by batch to lower the file size.
If the details and format of the file are correct, but the issue persists, we can perform troubleshooting steps to check and fix any underlying browser issues. One of the possible reasons you might be having is that your browser saves outdated and corrupted cache files from websites you visit over time. It can occasionally cause issues with loading or navigating those pages.
We'll start by accessing your QuickBooks Online account through a private/incognito window. Depending on your browser, use the keyboard shortcut below to open one:
If it works, return to your regular browser and clear your browser's history to start afresh. We also suggest using a different supported browser because the QuickBooks version you're utilizing now may have a temporary malfunction.

Once verified, you can re-import your transactions following the correct format. You can use these articles for more detailed steps in importing your transactions:

You can see where it accepted part of the upload and not the rest. The fields for the upload are all the same. Also, the file is well below the file size limit. At times it blocks on the amount side and at times it blocks on the date side. Any help that you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Thanks for getting back to us, Drewppy. This is unusual and there doesn't seem to be any obvious issue from the screenshot provided.
How many lines are on the file in total, and do you receive the same error if you split the file and import only the ones showing the error?
