Can i import iif files 2019 online version

Hi there,

Thanks for reaching out to the Community. I'd be happy to answer your question. 

QuickBooks Desktop 2019 makes it easy to import IIF files. Here's an article from our Community which will show you how to do that:

Try this out and let me know how you make out. 

Hi Bev,

I can help answer this question. You're right that JamesM's response was referring to QuickBooks Desktop. When it comes to QuickBooks Online, the program allows you to import .CSV or .XLS/.XLSX files into the program, with the exception of bank transaction files which are also acceptable in .QBO format for manual uploads.

Here are a few articles that explain more about the import process and options for our Online platform.

• Common questions about importing data to QuickBooks Online
• Importing Your Bills
• Import invoices in batches
• Import Chart of Accounts
• Import products and services

I hope that clarifies how importing works in QuickBooks Online. Don't hesitate to ask more questions!

Hi again, Bev. I'm happy to help however I can. Journal entries aren't among the transactions types that can imported into QuickBooks Online. Here's a glimpse of the Import Data screen with the available options.

There may be partner apps that can import journal entries and other transaction types into the program. Some may even be able to import different file types as well. Visit the website I linked by clicking "partner apps" at the beginning of this paragraph (Hint: make sure the flag at the top of the website is Canadian) or view what's available using the Apps tab in your account.

Otherwise, you can manually enter the information from the IIF journal entry file. It's only a few clicks to create a journal entry in QuickBooks Online: click the Plus (+) icon, select Journal Entry, and fill in the fields.

All the best to you. :)
