Matching of bank and sales receipt

Hi Everyone. I have the following issue:

I have 2 sales receipts that need to be matched on the bank transactions. I have 2 bank transactions that fit those 2 sales receipts. However, when I click on the first bank transaction, it does not show me the sales receipt to match. When I click on the second bank transactions, it shows me both sales receipts. An hour with the live book keeping did not help, the transfer to the technical hotline ended up being hold on line for 50 minutes. Anyone any idea what the problem is?

Matching of bank and sales receipt

Let's match those bank transactions with the corresponding sales receipts in QuickBooks Online (QBO) Ozan.

 

If a receipt does not match during reconciliation, it may be due to discrepancies between QBO and your bank account. Moving forward, verify that both records accurately reflect the same transaction information.

 

To match your bank transactions and sales receipt, you can manually edit the entries in QuickBooks by following these steps:

 

  1. Sign in to your QuickBooks Online account.
  2. Go to Transactions, and select Bank transactions.
  3. Choose the relevant bank account, and select For Review tab.
  4. Locate the downloaded sales receipt that's causing the mismatch.
  5. Then, select Find match to locate the correct deposit or manually edit the transaction to reflect the correct amount as per your bank statement.

 

Furthermore, keeping your transactions organized in QuickBooks is vital for accurate financial record-keeping. You can refer to the following articles for assistance:

Hi Eman.

Thank you for your reply but honestly I don't know what this should solve. I try it again:

In the For Review section of the bank transactions, there are 2 transactions that needs to be matched. And I have 2 sales receipts in the All Sales section that are the ones to be matched. Now the following happens:

When I click the first bank transaction and try to match it the correct sales receipt, the sales receipt is not showing up in the avaialble list. However when I click the second bank transaction, it can be matched to both sales receipts.

OK I will try again, my first reply did not work. The problem is like following:

 

1. I have 2 bank transactions in the For Review section

2. I have 2 sales receipts that should match those 2 transactions

 

When I click the first bank transactions, I will not see the sales receipt to match

When I click the second bank transactions, I will see both sales receipts.

 

So what is the problem here?

Thank you for sharing more details, ozzy1982. I'd like to provide additional information to help you match your bank transaction entries to your sales receipts in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

 

In QuickBooks, if your sales receipts and bank transactions have the same date and amount, the system will typically suggest a match. All you need to do is approve the match if it's correct. However, if you cannot find a match for your transaction, here are several possible reasons:

 

  • The amounts or dates don’t match.
  • The bank account associated with the payment differs from the bank where the match is located.
  • The transaction is older than six months.
  • The payment has already been reconciled.
  • The record is already matched to another transaction.
  • Multiple currencies are involved, and the exchange rate has shifted significantly, making the amounts very different.

 

After reviewing your transaction, I suggest manually matching it using the steps outlined by my colleague Eman above.

 

Refer to this article for further guidance on how to match transactions accordingly: Match online bank transactions in QuickBooks Online.

 

Additionally, you can create bank rules to automatically categorize transactions, which will help streamline the review process for your online bank transactions.

Or yes i tried this, waited 45 minutes on the line and then hung up. Its hard to explain the issue, the hotline doesnt get it. Any other ways?

Matching of bank and sales receipt

Hi there. I talked to the hotline and the solution provided is doing a manual entry for the transaction. Tried, didnt work and now I know why but I dont know if this can be resolved.

 

The transaction amount is: 1101.77

The sales receipt to be matched is: 1179.50

 

Because the difference between those 2 numbers is too high, they can not be matched. When I tried to upload a CSV manually with the transaction and changed the amount to something closer, like 1130, I was able to match. 

 

So what is the sense behind this matching procedure, I mean the customer can always change mind and send less money or the transaction fee can be higher due to some technical issues or some refunding process. So anyone in this QBO universe please tell me what do now. I have a sales receipt with 1179.50 $ and a transaction with 1101.77 $, fees for this transaction were 77.73 $ and because this fee is too high, Quickbooks will not let me match it!!!

Add a line item to the sales receipt with the -$77.73 transaction fee.  That will reduce the sales receipt total to $1101.77, and should allow QB to match the payment to the sales receipt.
