Bank Not Supported

  • January 28, 2019

In the BANKING tab >Add Account. After going through the prompts, my bank is not an option. It asks you to input the bank's web address and states that QuickBooks will contact the bank. It has been about a week and still I can't connect QB to the bank. It there a way to manually input the bank account information? I have resorted to handwriting paper checks because I have no way to print them in the system- which defeats the purpose of even having a program.

Thanks in advance

Hey there, Crestone.

 

Thanks for reaching out for support here in the Community. I want to make sure you're able to get your bank information into QuickBooks Online.

 

This can be done manually through what is referred to as a WebConnect. The first step in this process is to download your bank transactions as one of the following formats: 

  • .CSV
  • .QFX
  • .QBO
  • .OFX

The downloaded file can then be uploaded into QuickBooks by:

 

1. Clicking the Banking tab in the left navigation bar.

2. Select the black drop-down arrow beside of Update, and select File upload.

 

This article offers more information on this type of setup: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/community/Banking-and-bank-feeds/How-to-upload-more-than-90-days-of-bank-transactions/m-p/187501.

 

Additionally, this write-up covers the how-to's of importing using a .CSV file: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/community/Banking-and-bank-feeds/How-to-import-bank-transactions-using-Excel-CSV-files/m-p/185578.

 

Keep up the great work and please let me know if you have any other questions. I'll be here to help any way that I can.

They won't be sharing any updates or roadmaps about it. When the total requests meet their parameters, they will work on it. You should check the list yourself from time to time.

 

As another option, use MT Online or one of the converter tools (e.g csv2qbo) for the time being.

Thanks for joining the thread, @Herb65.

 

I'm here to help you so you can import transactions from your bank to QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE). Here's how:

 

  1. Sign in to your bank's website.
  2. Follow their instructions on how to download entries as a CSV file.
  3. Use this format coming from your financial institution.
  4. Set the date range for at least one day before the oldest transaction in the account in QuickBooks.
  5. Follow on-screen instructions to finish the download.

 

Once done, you're now ready to import them. Let me show you how:

 

  1. In your QuickBooks Self-Employed account, go to Settings and choose Imports.
  2. Select the account you want to add the transactions into.
  3. Click Browse and find the file you downloaded from your bank.
  4. Choose the file and click Open to start the import.
  5. Review the column headers and data. Make sure the Date, Description, and Amount columns on the CSV match the columns and order in QuickBooks.
  6. Click Continue to complete the import.
  7. Then, you can follow the steps here to categorize them.

Here's the article that will give you more info about the process: Manually import transactions into QuickBooks Self-Employed. 

 

Also, if you want QuickBooks to automatically download transactions from Wells Fargo bank so you can skip manual entry, you may refer to this link for the detailed instructions: Connect bank and credit card accounts to QuickBooks Self-Employed. 

 

Don't hesitate to leave a comment below if you have further concerns about connecting bank accounts in QBSE. I'm always around to help you out. Stay safe.
