How to re import web connect files
Reloading web connect files. Each transaction within the file contains a unique identifier. With a little manual manipulation you can modify this identifier and reload the file. However, be careful the purpose of this unique identifier to make sure you don't import duplicate entries.
1. Open the web connect file with the text edit.
2. Select edit>find>find and replace.
3. In the search field enter <FITID>
4. In replace field enter <FITID>1
5. Select "Replace All", then done.
6. Import the web connect file into quickbooks (file menu-> Utilities-> import->web connect)

I tried what you said. Now I no longer get the "all transactions are up to date" message. Now I get one that says, "The file you are importing contains transactions for the following accounts at __________ - QB WebConnect.
For each downloaded account, select a matching QuickBooks account from the Store in the QuickBooks Account menu. When finished, click Continue."
The problem with this is that it tried to make me set up a new account to import into every time. I want to use the same account every time. This is an ongoing issue. Thank you for trying to help.
Have you figured this out yet? I am having the same issue. QB has gone downhill as far as I'm concerned. Ever since I renewed my membership I have had these problems. When I called customer service, they wanted me to pay a membership fee for service help on their product! That is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard! Your product is not working properly, so I should pay you to tell me how to go through loopholes to make it work every time I need to update? UGH!

When I called customer service to ask how to fix it, they wanted me to pay a membership fee to receive their help on their malfunctioning product. QB has gone downhill as far as I'm concerned. Will definitely look into other products when this one expires!
Hello there, @Sternlc.
Thanks for adding your concern on this thread. I can provide information about downloading transaction into QuickBooks Desktop.
There are no a reported issue with regards to Web Connect file, however, I have some troubleshooting steps to add that should work for you.
You may download directly from the banks website, outside of QuickBooks:
You can also duplicate the issue in a new test file:
If the import is successful in a new test file, the issue lies in the original data file. Otherwise, the issue is with the .QBO file formatting provided by your bank. To fix it, check out solution 2 detailed in this article and 3-4 for more troubleshooting steps: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/community/Banking-and-bank-feeds/Troubleshoot-Bank-Feeds-Web-Connect-i....

You guys won't fix this problem over the phone either. I spend an hour messing with the export file every time i try to import, the hacks above used to work but for whatever reason don't anymore. I spent a lot of money on this program and support told me I had to buy a subscription for help.
QB is garbage. go somewhere else.
Hi asjdfhaksdjhfakjsdh,
I appreciate that you've reached out to us and for performing the steps in resolving the issue. As a workaround given by our investigations team, any transactions not in QuickBooks will need to manually be entered.
Thanks for your continued patience.
THANKS MEN, IT WORKED
Still not working for me. Which process solved the issue? I'm dumping 12 months of data into QB via web connect and it says its up to date but is obviously not on the ledger for that account.
