BLACK FRIDAY SALE 70% OFF QuickBooks for 3 months* Ends 11/30
Buy nowHello,
I have my business banking account linked to QBO so it shows all my transactions. I made a payment of $223 to my business credit card that I have with my bank, and it shows that transaction for review in my QuickBooks transactions for review. However, this is my first payment to the credit card that has interest included ($140.18). Unfortunately, my bank, who I have the credit card through, does not have the interest charge shown as a transaction that could then reflect in QBO. Instead, the bank ONLY shows the finance/interest charge on my bank statement. But when I made the payment to the credit card it is only one transaction including the principal and interest payment.
How do I record this transaction in QBO? QB is suggesting I record it as a credit card payment, but the total transaction amount is both paid principal and interest ($82.82 + $140.18). I don't see an option to record this as a split transaction when choosing the "Record as credit card payment" option. Please advise, thanks!
Thanks for the screenshots of the banking transaction, HQS1.
Using the Record as a credit card payment option will only let you record the transaction as one. If you want to track the principal amount and interest paid separately, you'll want to manually record it first in QBO. Then, match it with the downloaded transaction.
I'd be glad to share these steps with you:
Once done, go back to the online banking section and match the transactions.
