Thanks for reaching out to the Community, @MARKKHU.

 

If you're already using the Classic Mode for the Bank Feeds, it's possible that the Payee Aliasing option was turned off, causing them to not show. Let's check the Preferences to verify.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. In QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT), go to the Edit menu at the top left to get to the Preferences.
  2. Select Checking at the left pane and proceed to the Company Preferences tab.
  3. In the Bank Feeds section, make sure that the Classic Mode is selected and turned on.
  4. Hit OK to complete. 

 

Once done, go back to the Bank Feed Center to double-check.

Please leave a comment below if you have any other questions or concerns. I'll be here to help. Have a great day!

Hello and thank you for your help the option to turn on payee aliases is not there in Classic Mode in QBDT 2020 I'll try to put a screenshot here...

I have a screenshot but am not able to put it here the last thing I see is Turn on Bank Feed Logs that is right below Classic mode. That is kind of odd...thanks again for your help.

I have turned on and off the Aliasing feature in the preferences, updated my QuickBooks, verified the data, tried changing bank feed modes and when I use the classic register mode the aliasing still doesn't work. Any additional suggestions? I do not want to uninstall the program from my computer.
