split transactions while importing them

JordanT · ‎December 20, 2020

I have downloaded my transactions from my bank and some of the deposits have mulitple check deposits. I'd like to be able to split them while I am assigning them to accounts and payees. From what I understand, this can only be done AFTER they have been entered into the check register (which makes no sense to me).

What is the correct (easiest?) way to split transactions as they are reconsiled into the register?

thanks in advance

Hi there, @JordanT.

The easiest way to split the transaction is either edit it after assigning accounts and payee. Or manually create the split so the transaction will match and accurate. For more details, check out this article: Add and match Bank Feed transactions in QuickBooks Desktop.

Once done, you can always review the Transaction Detail Report. Then customize it to show the specific details. See the sample screenshot below for your reference.
