Join nowI have a client that upgraded from the desktop version to the online version. The client has 500 transactions from 2011-2015 in the undeposited fund's account. What is the best method to clear up this account for the online version?
Hello there, fgibson.
Thank you for reaching out to the QuickBooks Community. I'd be happy to help share some methods to clear the Undeposited Funds after upgrading to QuickBooks Online.
A likely cause of this is if you used journal entries in QuickBooks Desktop to apply payments to your customer's invoices. The links between the journal entry "credits" and the invoices are broken once in QuickBooks Online.
To fix this, you can apply these credits to the correct invoices. In QuickBooks Online, you have an option to apply credits to invoices automatically.
Here's how:
After that, you can move the funds into the right bank account to change them to deposited.
Here's how:
If you don't want to apply for all payments automatically, you can record the payments by matching the journal entry credits to existing invoices. You'll need to do this on a customer by customer basis.
For additional help, you can also call our Phone Support to guide you through the steps to do it.

We are having an issue with journal entries created to cover promotional items given away showing as undeposited funds in the Deposits screen. We don't want to deposit them, obviously, as the entry was created to show a loss. How should we proceed with the undeposited funds?

In the situation you've explained, I would recommend that you review the journal entries that you've made. You need to make sure that the right accounts would be affected instead of the Undeposited Funds account. For additional insight about this, I would recommend following this article: How to create a journal entry

I can't seem to clear the transactions in my Undeposited Funds account. I need help with this. In my P & L, the income is overstated by the amounts in the Undeposited funds account.
Hi there, dawnroth.
I'm glad to see you posting here and welcome to QuickBooks Community. I'll provide information and fix the income that overstated by the amounts in the Undeposited funds account in P & L.
Once you downloaded the transaction in QuickBooks Online, you'll need to review by matching or adding them in QuickBooks. That said, I suggest making sure that the money received from invoices and sales receipt isn't manually added from Online Banking. If that happens, then it creates duplicate entries on your end and can cause your income exceeded. I suggest going to the Categorized section and undo those added. This way, transactions will go back to the For Review tab.
Here's how:
Once done, if you have an invoice payment/sales receipt manually recorded in QuickBooks and stored to the Undeposited account, you'll need first to deposit those transactions in your bank. Then, match them from the downloaded entries to avoid double transactions or income. That way, you're able to clear the transactions in your Undeposited Funds account. And, your Profit and loss report now stays accurate.
