Linking with bank account nightmare. Again.

Hi, jmphoenix2000.

QuickBooks will automatically download your most recent or 90 days' worth of transactions when you connect to your bank for the first time. If you've been manually entering your transactions into QuickBooks, this will result in duplicates in the program.

We can correct this by UNDOing the downloaded statements and matching them to your manually added transactions or excluding them in QuickBooks Online.

Here's how to undo the transactions:

1. Click Transactions and choose Banking.
2. Go to the Categorized tab.
3. Locate the transaction and hit Undo.

If you decide to remove them from the duplicates, we can do so by following the steps outlined below:

1. Click Banking in the left panel and choose Banking.
   
2. In the For Review tab, select the imported transactions that are appearing twice.
3. Tap on the Exclude button.
   
4. If you want to delete the transactions, go to the Excluded tab and select the transactions.
5. Hit the Delete button.
   

We can read the articles below for more information on how the excluding process works, as well as which banks use OAuth and how it affects you:

Keep in touch if you have other questions in mind about QuickBooks. I'll make sure to get back to you as quickly as I can. Have a nice day!

I want to know why I have duplicate bank accounts (some accounts say DELETED but still exist with data) and transactions appear on there in a crazy random order. I basically have 4 REAL bank accounts but now I have 8 in QB. Is there a way to completely delete these accounts created? I would hate to UN do and delete or exclude dozens of transactions (due to the time it would take and also nothing ever gets deleted in QB, it just gets set aside to haunt you later in a deleted section) My transactions for this month are NOT appearing and I have duplicates of random transactions from my bank in random dates in QB. I don't know how else to explain it but this is unreal.

Did someone help solve this? 

Hello there, @questions2023.

I want to ensure you're able to manage your bank accounts and transactions in QuickBooks Online (QBO). But, I have to gather some information about your concern to ensure I can provide the best solution. Can you share the name of your financial institution? Are you trying to exclude your duplicate transactions?

While we wait for the information, you can learn more about reviewing downloaded bank and credit card transactions in QBO by checking out this article: Categorize and match online bank transactions in QuickBooks Online.
