Using the Check feature in Transaction Pro, I accidentally imported to QBO around 1125 dulicate entries. What is my best option to remedy?

+ Tools Restore from recent cloud backup.

 

April Fools! QBO does not provide backup restore.

 

But seriously- how back to TransactionPro and buy the Transaction Deleter which is probably not included in the importer

 

Or if you imported only as far as bank feeds would- to For Review- then you could exclude them

Thanks for the reply John.  I like the idea of a QBO restore-to-previous-date idea.  How can we make that happen?

Thanks for the response, John.  How can we get QB to change the April Fools comment into a done-deal reality?  I think that would be a nice feature to add.

Good day, @kganskie,

 

Allow me to step in and share some information with you about the data in your account.

 

QuickBooks Online is a cloud-based accounting software. Therefore, there isn't a need to install any software to restore or back up your data.

 

As what @john-pero mentioned above, you need to exclude duplicate transactions.

 

Here's how:

  1. Click Banking from the left panel.
  2. Go to For Review tab.
  3. Select transactions you want to exclude.
  4. From the Batch actions drop-down, select Exclude Selected.
  5. You can go to the Excluded tab to review the excluded items. 

For more details about the steps listed above, you can go through this article: How to exclude expenses from downloaded bank transactions.

 

Feel free to leave a comment if there's anything I can help with your bank transactions. I'm always around here in the Intuit Community whenever you need help.

Thank you for your response, MaryLandT

 

Is this true for Transaction Pro imports?  It was not a bank download transaction. I was using the import Checks feature in Transaction Pro when I encountered the duplicate transactions in QBO.

 

Thank you,
