I use QBO for accountants . I have a new client and she wants me to do her books.
When I took a look at her books , I saw she has two Nevada State Banks in her bank feeds and she also has one QB Checking Account in her bank feeds.
If i print a report for this QB Checking Account i see a lot of transactions in there deposits , expenses, fees etc .
1. Frist question is how do this transactions flow in QB ? Is it through the bank feeds ? I am not sure as I didnt see any transactions in the bank feed under this account that needed to be categorized, or matched ?
2. Do you reconcile this account ? If the answer is yes - then where do you find the statement for this account ? I was able to pull a statement for these account as well but to my surprise the statement can't compare to any transaction that actually is inside the QuickBooks Checking account in her books .
Meaning QB checking account in qbo has many transactions which are NOT reflected in the statement that I pull for this checking account ?
It is my understanding that the client uses the QB checking account to receive payments from her invoices, then the money goes to her Nevada State Bank account ? So my next question is when do I need to match the invoice with the payment ? Should I match when I reconcile Nevada State Bank , or should I match the invoices with the payments when I see those payments in QB checking account ?
CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP , this is very confusing really . I do have the green quickbooks statements for this Quickbooks Checking Account but the amount of transactions in the statement doesn't match what the client has in her books for this Quickbooks Checking Account .
Hope some quickbook specialist will have the right answer to my questions .
Thank you ,
Laura
Hello there, Laura.
Let me shed some light on how transactions from QuickBooks Checking account flows within QuickBooks Online company. Then, manage them properly.
Yes, transactions will flow in the bank feed under the QuickBooks Checking account. It could be that the transactions under the QuickBooks Checking account are already categorized by the system or because of using the bank rule. That's why they are no longer showing in the For review tab.
We can go to the Categorized tab to review them and they should already be displayed in the register. Here's a sample screenshot for additional reference:
The statement might be different from the transactions generated in QuickBooks. It happens when the transactions are being deducted for processing fees.
If they aren't showing in the Categorized tab, we can manage them properly by adding the processing fees by creating a deposit. You can use this article for a guide: Record and make bank deposits in QuickBooks Online. Scroll down to the Include bank or processing fees section.
After that, we can match them in the bank feed. Then, reconcile the QuickBooks Checking account.
And yes, you're correct about receiving payments from QuickBooks Checking account through their bank account.
Also, we can get further details about QuickBooks Checking and envelopes in the articles below.

Thank you Sarah for your reply but that didn't solve my issue.
May you please explain me the following in your answer : The statement might be different from the transactions generated in QuickBooks. It happens when the transactions are being deducted for processing fees.
How different could that be ? Does that reduce the NUMBER of the transactions or just the amounts ? What I see is tons of transactions flowing in the books but when I want to reconcile the account , (and I have ) the statement has just a few transactions , which I am able to find and reconcile in the books, but I am leaving most of what in already in QB now uncleared ? And when I say lots of transactions yep the are lots of UNCLEARED transactions for the month ? HOW COME ?
Thanks for getting back to this thread, @Laura1980. Allow me to chime in and clarify things for you.
Before that, are you seeing duplicate transactions? I appreciate any extra information you can give, and it will help us isolate the issue and provide the best solution.
The statement may differ from the transactions generated in QuickBooks when double entries occur within your books. This happens when you add bank transactions instead of matching them.
What we need to do is to compare your bank statement and QuickBooks records. Then, undo those transactions that shows as duplicate and match them accordingly.
For more information, you can review this link to help review downloaded bank and credit card transactions and put them in the correct accounts: Categorize and match online bank transactions in QuickBooks Online.
Once everything is settled, start reconciling your accounts so they always match your bank and credit card statements.
