Hi, I need to add a bank account, but system shows me "You're already sharing data from these accounts"... Unfortunately it is not right. How I can fix this problem?

I'm here to ensure you're able to connect your bank account to QuickBooks Online (QBO) successfully, @mz-gradient-phot

 

Thanks for letting me know that the error you're getting isn't right. It could be the browser may be full of frequently accessed page resources when trying to add your bank account to QBO. That's why it causes unusual behavior, in which the system prompts a message.

 

Let's perform some troubleshooting steps to help fix this.

 

We can start by logging into your QBO account using a private browser. It doesn't store data in the cache, so it's a great way to isolate browser-related issues.

 

If you're using Mozilla Firefox or Microsoft Edge, press the CTRL + Shift + P shortcut on your keyboard. For Safari, hit Command + Shift + N. Press CTRL + Shift + N if you're using Google Chrome. 

 

Once signed in, go back to the Banking page and connect your bank account from there. If it works, let's clear your regular browser's cache to have a clean slate. This way, it'll function efficiently. If private browsing doesn't work, use other supported browsers to get the best and most secure experience with QBO. 

 

After that, the program will automatically download your bank transactions. Then, you can assign and

categorize them in the For Review tab to ensure they're accurate. You can also match them to the existing entries in the system to avoid duplicates.

 

I also want to make sure I've got you covered. With this, can I ask for the name of your bank account you're trying to add to QBO? Just click the Reply button below to add some details.

 

I'll lend a helping hand if you need anything else. Take care always, @mz-gradient-phot

Just following up on this error as I am experiencing this too.

 

I've used a separate browser, private browsing mode, and cleared cache/cookies and I am still seeing this error. When I go to add my Chase bank account (which is not showing in my Dashboard) I get to the import pop-up, and it errors out saying that "I'm already sharing data from these accounts..."

 

Has anyone found a fix for this issue yet?

Thanks for joining this thread, @OraDrexler.

 

As of now, there is an on-going investigation about the "You're already sharing data from these accounts" error when connecting the chase bank account to QuickBooks. Rest assured that our engineers are currently investigating and working on an immediate fix. 

 

In the meantime, you can manually add transactions from your bank to QuickBooks using a CSV file

 

Here's how:

  1. Select the left Banking/Transactions menu and then Banking.
  2. Click the Link account drop-down arrow, and then choose Upload from file. If you’ve never connected an account, you can select Upload transactions manually
  3. Hit Browse and choose the file you downloaded from your bank. If you haven't downloaded your CSV file yet, follow the onscreen instructions in the Upload file window to download your transactions and then select the file you downloaded.
  4. Hit Open, then Next.
  5. From the QuickBooks Account drop-down list, select the bank or credit card account then select Next.
  6. Pick a Datedate formatDescription, and AmountNote: You can choose 1 column or 2 columns.
  7. Then Next.
  8. Click the checkboxes of the transactions to import and select Next.
  9. Tick Yes.
  10. Tap Let's go! when the Import completed notification appears.

 

To add you to the list of affected users, I suggest contacting our Support Team to give your account information. Once added, you'll receive updates on the current status of the issue and the resolution when available. 

 

Then, to review each downloaded transactions, you have to categorize and match them into QuickBooks Online.

 

Feel free to leave a reply below if you have further concerns about connecting the bank to QuickBooks. I want to make sure you're taken care of, and I'm here to help you anytime. Take care always.

Does anyone have a solution to this problem yet?  I can't reconnect credit card accounts because of error 'you're already sharing data from these accounts'

Ive just tried to add my chase accounts and I'm receiving this same message "you're already sharing date from these accounts" so it appears that as of Nov 8, 2021 this issue still exists.

Here's how I resolved this:

- Log in to your Chase online bank with the account under which you have the problematic connection.

- Go to Security & Privacy (Last tab)

- Look for "Linked apps and websites" on the page

- You should see Quickbooks under active section

- Click Stop Sharing Data and Confirm

- Go back to QBO and link the bank account again

For me, I had to click on Security Center at the bottom right side of the page.

 

I removed the QBO access and now it works!
