We are purchasing equipment from another equipment dealer like us. I need to wire $18,000.00 to his Wells Fargo Business Account. How can I do that from a bank that has no place of business?
Right now, paying a dealer via wire transfer isn't available in QuickBooks Online (QBO). You can pay them by Bank Transfer (ACH transfers or eCheck).
You can set it up whenever you want by either entering the vendor's bank account manually or inviting the vendor.
Please know that this feature is only available to users with Online Bill Pay. If you wish to sign-up for Online Bill Pay, please visit the Online Bill Pay page.
To add the vendor's bank account, follow these steps.
Sign in to your QuickBooks Online account.
Click + New, thenPay Bills Online.
Click the Bill Pay Online dashboard widget.
Proceed to the Expense tab, then Pay Bills Online.
To set up a vendor with open bills, select Set up Bank Transfers within the same line as the Payee.
To set up a vendor before there are open bills select Set up vendors for bank transfers. You'll need the account number for the vendor.
If you don't want to pay by Bank Transfer, you can go to your bank and manually wire the payment. Then, if your bank account is connected to online banking, QuickBooks will automatically download the latest transactions. All you need to do is categorize and match them to the existing entry in QuickBooks.
Stay in touch with me if there's anything else you need. I'll be around to answer your follow-up questions.
