Hi there, bstaggs. Bank error 185 occurs when your bank requires more information to verify your identity, such as a security question or a code. Providing the required answers or security codes directly within QuickBooks Online typically resolves this alert message.
Since the error message continues, sign in to QuickBooks using a private or incognito browser window. This helps if your regular browser is blocking the security prompt from showing up. If the issue persists, perform the additional browser troubleshooting steps.
For now, manually upload a CSV file from your bank via the Upload from file option to keep your records current while resolving Error 185. Once the connection is restored, simply Exclude any duplicate entries that appear in the For Review or Pending tab to maintain an accurate balance.
Please feel free to share any further clarification if you have questions about these steps.
