How do I get all credit card transactions from multiple credit cards to show up under 1 parent account for reconciliation?

Thank you for navigating the QuickBooks product to figure out how to add a subaccount, @Keryann M. Let's go over your Chart of Accounts while I clarify why the Is subaccount option is missing on your end.

Before proceeding, please note that we can only create up to five subaccounts under one parent account. If you'd like to set up the existing 4 US Bank credit cards as a subaccount, let's go back to the steps you've mentioned.

1. On the COA page, select the View register dropdown and pick Edit.
2. In the Edit account panel, click the Save account under ▼ dropdown. Choose the parent account you want to move the credit card accounts as a subaccount. 
3. Tap Save.

Since you're seeing the Edit account panel, you're using the Accountant View. The Is sub-account checkbox will show on the Business View. I'm adding screenshots below for reference:

Once done, you can review your transactions and match them to your bank or credit card statements: Reconcile an account in QuickBooks Online.

im running into this problem also. i was able to connect accounts under parent  credit card but transactions still do not show up to reconcile ive already matched amounts - what can i do ?

Let me chime into this thread, at09. I'll share information about reconciling our accounts in QuickBooks Online (QBO). 

In general, subaccounts are linked to the parent account. Selecting the subaccounts in the reconciliation will only display the associated transactions under it. 

In this case, we have to choose the parent account since all transactions in the subaccounts will roll into it and ensure the accuracy of the ending balance. 

Here's what we can do: 

1. Go to Settings and then Reconcile.
2. From the Account dropdown menu, make sure it's your parent account. 
3. While you're in the Reconciliation window, choose Edit info.
4. Review the Ending balance and Ending date.
5. Check your bank statement. Make edits as needed.
6. Click Save.

To learn more about setting up multiple subaccounts to easily connect them to your bank and reconcile downloaded transactions in QBO, visit this article: About bank or credit card subaccount setup. 

I've included a few resources you can refer to if you experience any issues after the reconciliation process and how you can modify them:

We have 13 employee cards...looks like we can only add 5 cards to the parent account? Is there a workaround for this? Would really love to be able to reconcile all of these through QBO and not the way we've been doing it.

Thanks for joining this thread, @ARF97111. Let's work together in connecting your thirteen employee cards to QuickBooks Online (QBO) under one parent account.

It appears you're creating sub-account hierarchies for your thirteen employee cards. If so, it's correct that QBO only allows creating multiple sub-accounts up to 5 levels deep, and when you make more beyond the limit, you'll encounter the error message like in the screenshot below.

Instead of creating a nested hierarchy of sub-accounts, consider creating thirteen sub-accounts under one parent account for your credit card. Then, utilize class tracking for more detailed financial tracking and breakdown of expenses at various hierarchical levels. I'm here to share how to accomplish this in QBO.

First, set up thirteen sub-accounts for the parent card account. You can follow these steps:

1. Go to the Gear icon. Then, select Chart of accounts.
2. Click on the New button.
3. Enter the Account name and choose the Account type and Detail type.
4. Tick the Make this a subaccount checkbox.
5. From the Parent account drop-down menu, choose the parent card account.
6. Enter the Opening balance and Description.
7. Hit Save.
8. Repeat steps 1 to 7 for the rest of the employee cards.

Next, before connecting these cards to online banking, please know that it's important to understand how your bank sends the downloaded transactions:

• If the transactions download to one account, connect only the parent account. All transactions will flow into the parent account, where you can categorize and track them by sub-account and class.
• If the transactions download to the individual accounts, connect the sub-accounts directly to the bank feed. Each employee card sub-account will receive its respective transactions.

You can refer to this article about connecting the parent or subaccounts to QBO: Connect bank and credit card accounts to QuickBooks Online.

Finally, consider using the class tracking feature to assign classes for each employee so each imported transaction is assigned with class. Here's how to toggle on class tracking in QBO:

1. Go to the Gear icon and select Account and settings.
2. Select Advanced, then select the Categories section to edit.
3. Turn on the Track classes switch.
4. Select Warn me when a transaction isn't assigned a class.
5. Under Assign classes, select One to entire transaction or One to each row in transaction.
6. Select Save. Then, Done.

Follow Step 2 of this article to set up your class list: Class tracking in QuickBooks Online.

I have the same problem where multiple employee credit cards are showing up as separate accounts in quickbooks. I tried to update the chart of accounts to a subaccount, but I am getting an error stating that the accounts are setup for sync with the bank. Is there some other setting that needs to be changed?

Thank you for providing the screenshot, cfgiway. I'm here to guide you in successfully converting your employees' credit cards into sub-accounts.

To do this, you'll first need to disconnect the account from the online banking tab. Once it's disconnected, you can make it a sub-account and then reconnect the bank. There are no additional settings that need to be changed.

Before proceeding with the steps, please note that the error message indicates that the account you’re trying to set as a sub-account is currently linked to online banking or Web Connect.

QuickBooks requires bank accounts to remain independent when using online banking to maintain the integrity of the transaction download process. Similarly, if the account is set up with the Web Connect feature (which allows for manual uploads of bank transactions), this will also restrict any changes to the account type.

Let's now disconnect your account in the online banking:

1. Go to Transactions and select Bank transactions.
2. Choose the tile of the bank you want to disconnect and click the Pencil icon.
3. Click the Edit account info button and tick the Disconnect this account on save box.
4. Select Save and close.

Then, designate the bank account as a sub-account:

1. Go to Transactions and select Chart of accounts.
2. Navigate to the bank and click the dropdown under the ACTION column and choose Edit.
3. Tick the Make this a subaccount box and choose the Parent account in the dropdown.
4. Once done, click Save.

Lastly, reconnect the bank to enable automatic downloads of your transactions.

Additionally, ensure to reconcile your accounts regularly to maintain accuracy and keep your records up-to-date.
