I am new to QBO and recently opened an account on Jan 1. We use Square for both online/in person sales and Ebay for online sales. From about Jan.1-Jan. 17 Ebay and Square applications were inadvertently recording BOTH payouts and every individual transactions leading to almost $35,000 in duplicate entries. There are hundreds of entries which would take forever to delete manually. Is there a way to create a journal entry that would correct the mistake for that time period for Square and then Ebay?
