How do I transfer quickbooks cash to my checking account?

I have the steps you're looking for, dtbyachtsystems.

 

There are different ways on how you can record a transfer between two accounts. Here are the following:

 

  • Transfer
  • Check
  • Imported Bank Transaction
  • Journal Entry

 

To create a transfer, you can follow these steps:

 

  1. Go to + New > Transfer.
  2. In the Transfer page, select the cash account from the Transfer Funds From drop-down menu.
  3. Choose the checking account from the Transfer Funds To drop-down list.
  4. Enter the amount in the Transfer Amount field.
  5. Add a Memo.
  6. Click Save and close.

Here's a sample screenshot for a visual guide:

 

 

For the other options, you can read this article: Transfer funds between accounts

How do I transfer quickbooks cash to my checking account?

I have used the very steps you described and it's been over 7 days and the money has not shown up in my checking account. I can usually see if something is pending in my bank account and I checked today and still nothing. Is there a way to tell if it's still in process.

 

Thanks

Hi there, @barry21.

 

I'll help you get QuickBooks Cash funds transferred to your checking account.

 

Make sure that you've connected your bank/checking as an external bank account to transfer money to and from your QuickBooks Cash account. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Cash Flow menu, then select Transfer money in the QuickBooks Cash section.
  2. Click Transfer in. You won't transfer money yet, we just need to start the connection.
  3. Follow the onscreen instructions.
  4. Enter the bank's name and select a type in the Account Type field. 
  5. Click Next.
  6. Enter your info in the Account number and Routing number fields. Then select Next.
  7. Hit Sounds good.

 

Once done, QuickBooks will send two small deposits to the account within the next three (3) days. Then, you get the confirmation email and come back to QuickBooks to verify the transactions.

 

After setting up everything, you can now transfer money from your QuickBooks Cash account to your bank/checking account.

  1. Go to the Cash Flow menu, then choose Transfer money in the QuickBooks Cash section.
  2. Click Transfer out
  3. In the From field, select your QuickBooks Cash account.
  4. In the To field, select the (+). Then select your connected bank account.
  5. Enter the amount you want to move out of your QuickBooks Cash account.
  6. Hit Finalize transfer.

 

For further reference, feel free to check this article: Get started with the Cash Flow menu.

 

 You may need to put aside funds for upcoming expenses, you can use the cash envelopes for specific purposes or as general funds so you always have money when you need it.

 

If there's anything else I can assist you with QuickBooks Cash, place them below. I'm always here to lend you a hand. Have a lovely day!

Thanks much. I guess I thought I did this when I set-up the QBcash account but clearly missed this step.

I now have the account linked and just waiting for the test deposits to show up.

Appreciate your quick response.

I have the 2 deposits in my bank account now but no confirmation email from QB. The deposits were made on 2/11/21 so how long will it take to get the confirmation email?

Thanks for keeping us updated, barry21.

 

I'm here to share some information about how QuickBooks Cash account works.

 

After entering the bank information, we'll send a confirmation email and two small deposits to your account within the next 3 days. You may try searching the email in your spam folder. There are times that our notifications will be accidentally tag as spam by the email providers.

 

Although, you can also directly activate your account within QuickBooks Online since you've already received the two deposits. I'll show you how:

 

  1. Sign in to QuickBooks Online.
  2. Select Cash Flow from the sidebar menu.
  3. Click Verify bank, then follow the on-screen instructions.
  4. Enter the two deposit amounts sent from QuickBooks. 
  5. Click Confirm to complete the process.

Now that you're all set up and ready, it's time transfer money in and out of your QuickBooks Cash account. Additionally, I recommend reading our FAQs page to learn the tips and tricks in using the Cash Flow feature.

I have followed all the steps as outlined to link an external account. Once I get all the information entered, it says "the account is already linked. you can transfer funds" but if I try to transfer funds the external bank account is not listed, and it tells me to link an external account.

It isn't the kind of experience that we want you to come across, ORF37.

 

I appreciate all the steps you've taken to resolve this matter.

 

Since the recommended troubleshooting didn't work on your end, I'd suggest reaching out to our Phone Support. This way, an agent can take a look at your account and guide you on how to track these items in a more secured environment.

 

Also, feel free to visit our Help Articles page for some tips and guides in navigating your account. 

 

ll be around if ever you have other concerns. Keep safe!

Please understand that I have contacted phone support several times and just keep getting handed off to different departments with no resolve. Is there a specific number I should call?

 

And what do I tell them so my money can finally be transferred to my bank account so I can access it.

 

Thanks.

Does the money from that was put into your quickbooks checking account come out immediately when you transfer it to your external bank account?
