I need to exports expenses from one company and import them into another company. Can this be done and how can I do it?

Transferring your expenses in batch from one QuickBooks Online (QBO) company file to another is a simple process, @cjgabel716. I'm here to guide you through each step of the way.

 

Importing batch transactions is a feature exclusive to the QuickBooks Online Advanced version. If you are subscribed to another version of QBO, I have a workaround ready for you.

 

Before doing so, export a list of your transactions from the first company file. To do that, go to Expenses, tick the check box for the expenses you want to transfer, and click the Export icon.

 

Once done, convert the Excel file to CSV outside QBO and upload it to another company file. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon, then choose Import data under TOOLS.
  2. From the dropdown arrow, select Bank Data for what you want to import.import.png
  3. Click Import.
  4. Hit the Select files button.

  5. Pick Continue.
  6. Choose a bank account from the dropdown arrow, then Continue.
  7. Set up your file and click Continue.
  8. Hit Continue.
  9. Select Yes.
  10. Click Done.

 

Additionally, you can streamline the process by uploading receipts directly to QBO, saving valuable time on tracking and recording them. Refer to this article for the detailed steps: Upload your receipts to QuickBooks Online.

 

Lastly, if you need further assistance with transferring data in QuickBooks Online, you may contact our QuickBooks Live Expert Assisted team.
