Receipts show unlinked even after attached to transactions

I've attached every receipt to a transaction yet all of the receipts still show 'unlinked' status. Is there an issue with this function currently?

Receipts show unlinked even after attached to transactions

I'm here to help you sort out the issue with the receipts showing as unlinked, thegees1989.

 

When linking your receipt to a transaction, please ensure that the details on the receipts exactly match those of the transactions. This includes verifying that the amount and the date are the same and confirming whether the transaction is categorized as an expense or income. Ensuring these details are precisely aligned is essential for successful linking. I've attached screenshots for your visual reference:

Once verified that all details are accurate and the issue still persists, let's proceed with our troubleshooting process by accessing your account using a private or incognito window. This approach stops data from accumulating in the cache, which can help isolate the problem. Below are the keyboard shortcuts you can utilize:

 

  • Safari: Command + Shift + N
  • Mozilla Firefox: CTRL + Shift + P
  • Google Chrome: CTRL + Shift + N
  • Microsoft Edge: CTRL + Shift + N

 

If it works, return to your regular browser and clear its cache. The system can behave erratically at times if pages are accessed frequently via the browser, which may be a result of corrupted cache files. You can also use other supported browsers as alternatives.

 

I'm sharing this article where you automate the categorization of recurring transactions: Use rules to categorize bank transactions in QuickBooks Solopreneur. This saves time by reducing the need for manual entries and helps you focus on other essential aspects of your business.
