Import Employee Check (IIF or CSV)

Import these checks as CHECK transactions.

I'd expect the IIF kit to have an example for checks. Are you sure it doesn't?

There's a WRITE CHECK template, but it's related to vendor. Here's a screenshot of the portion of this entry:

But unfortunately, there's no template for the CHECK issued to employee.

Thank you for your suggestion! I reached out to them, and unfortunately they only can import checks assigned to customer, vendor, or other name (not the employee).

I hope there's still another way 🤞🏼

I know another way to achieve this, SabinaS. 

I know the importance of being able to seamlessly import employee checks to QuickBooks. While this option isn't available, you may consider using a third-party importer tool. I'd suggest visiting our Intuit App Center to look for one.

Here's how:
 

1. Go to https://desktop.apps.com/home.
2. From the QuickBooks Compatibility section, choose the QuickBooks Desktop version you're using.
3. Type in the clue word of the specific app you're looking for in the Search field and click the magnifying glass to search.

You can read these articles to learn more about IIF import and export limitations: 

•  Export, import, and edit IIF files.
• The maximum number of list entries (list limits and custom fields)

Keep me posted if you have any other concerns or questions about importing an employee's checks. I’ll be around ready to help you. Take good care.

You can import checks for employees using our BRC IIF Transaction Creator.

It'll create an IIF file you can import directly into your check register from a list of checks on an Excel worksheet, optionally with the checks marked to print.

I checked with one of their Supports and they confirmed that checks can be made payable to employees also.

Great -- Thank you! Is there a version for the Macos?

We have yet to find any migration tool for QBD Mac. Consider running QBD Pro on Parallels to work with the migration tool if this issue is important to your daily work.
