Hello,
If I process a Receipt (Banking --> Receipts --> Review) and associate that receipt with one or more Accounts/Categories, that categorization is not automatically captured when I later Categorize a transaction in (Banking --> For Review --> Categorize), even when the transaction is associated with the receipt that I just processed. This means that I have to do the categorization a 2nd time.
For example, when I process a receipt as follows...
HOME DEPOT $50
- $25 Small Tools Expense
- $25 Job Supplies Expense
...I would expect that when I later categorize a Banking transaction and associate the above receipt with it, the above Expense account associations would automatically be captured but they aren't: I have to do the categorization all over again.
What am I doing wrong or not understanding about these processes?
Thanks!
Chuck
Hi, @czissman. Let me share insights about categorizing your receipts and banking entries in QuickBooks Online (QBO).
Yes. Splitting the accounts for your expenses from the Receipts window won't sync to your Banking entries under For review. To ease your work, categorize or split your transaction from the Banking section first. Here's how:
Once it's added to QuickBooks, switch to the Receipts tab to match the transaction and the receipt image itself.
I'm also adding this article for more information: Upload your receipts to QuickBooks Online.
I can see your interest in capturing the categorization of your entries under Receipts and Banking to save time and bypass extra work. While it's unavailable, I recommend sending a feature request directly to our product developers. This way, they can determine what enhancements and improvements are needed to make our product more effective and convenient for our users.
Here's how:
If you see duplicate records, exclude them from your system.
Once everything is in place, you're now ready to reconcile your accounts to match your statements.

Hello Angelyn_T,
Thank you for your clear reply to my question: I understand your instructions perfectly.
Unfortunately, while that does work, it's much more difficult than creating the splits in the Receipt view because when doing so in the Banking view, you cannot see the details on the receipt that are necessary to see what items were purchased and then to assign a category and dollar figure for each.
I suppose a work-around for this is to open QBO in two tabs, one tab displaying the Banking page and the other tab the Receipt so that the data necessary to enter the appropriate splits in Banking is visible on the Receipt tab.
Thanks for your help,
Chuck
