How do I manually add cash transactions

Thanks for getting back here in the Community, @randi-smith-kw-c. I'll make sure you can add your cash transactions into QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE). 

 

To get rid of this problem, let's perform a few browser troubleshooting solutions to get the missing option back in QBSE.

 

You can open a private or incognito window and use it to access QBSE. Sometimes the cache stored in the system can cause the product to misbehave. Check out these keyboard shortcuts:

 

  • Google Chrome: press Ctrl Shift N  
  • Mozilla Firefox: press Ctrl Shift P
  • Safari: press Command Shift N

 

If you're able to see the Add transaction using a private browser, go back to your regular browser and clear its cache. Clearing the cache or cookies is the best way to get a clean slate for your browser. Otherwise, using another supported browsers can be a good alternative too.

 

If everything's good, you can follow the steps provided by my colleague, Jessica_young above to add you cash transactions manually.

 

For additional reference, you can check out this article: Manually add transactions in QuickBooks Self-Employed.

 

I'm also adding these helpful articles to help you manage your QBSE account:

How do I manually add cash transactions

I'm trying to do the same to reimburse an employee who I entered as a vendor. I entered the 2 bills in QBO as bills and withdrew cash from ATM to pay him back. I don't have a "add transaction" option either. How do I enter the cash transaction to pay him back?

I'm here to ensure you can access the Add Transaction button, Eziel.

 

If you've followed my colleague Jessica's instructions on entering entries in QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE), but the option to add transactions is unavailable, we can perform troubleshooting steps to restore this functionality.

 

Sometimes, excessive cache stored in the system causes unexpected behavior within the platform. Let's resolve the problem by opening your QBSE account using a private or incognito window. Refer to these keyboard shortcuts:

 

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

 

If the Add transaction button becomes visible, return to your regular browser and clear its cache to start with a clean slate. Alternatively, you may utilize other supported browsersThen, proceed to add transactions.

Additionally, I'll drop this article to help you organize downloaded or manually entered data: Categorize transactions in QuickBooks Self-Employed.
