Add a transaction to an account register
In QuickBooks Online, you can manually add transactions like checks, deposits, or journal entries directly to an account register. This method saves time if you need to make a quick addition while reviewing your chart of accounts.
While we suggest using forms like invoices or sales receipts for better reporting, manual entry can be faster for certain tasks.
Prerequisites
Not every account register lets you add transactions directly.
Add a manual transaction
Go to All apps
, then Accounting, then Chart of accounts (Take me there).First, open your account register.
Find the account you want to add the transaction to in that list. You can also use the search field to find the account by name.
Select View Register once you find the account.
Select the Add journal entry, Add check, or Add deposit ▼ dropdown.
Select the type of transaction you want to add.
Fill out the fields to complete the transaction.
Select Save.
Result
The new transaction now appears in the account register.
