Im trying to manually input my expenses on quickbook app for android. I already look in transactions but is only asking me to link a bank account. Can it be done?

Im not trying to link any bank accounts. I just want to manually add the transaction. But is not letting me. No + sign in transactions menu.

Im trying to manually input my expenses on quickbook app for android. I already look in transactions but is only asking me to link a bank account. Can it be done?

Let me help you add transactions without linking your bank to your account, claver.

 

If you are new to the QB Solopreneur mobile app, it's important to note that you cannot manually add transactions directly through the app until you link a bank account. To add your initial transaction, please access your account via a web browser, where you can manually input the transaction.

 

Here's how:

  1. Login to your QBO account.
  2. Go to Transaction and select Bank Transactions.
  3. Click the Add a transaction.
  4. Enter the information needed.
  5. Hit Save.

 

Moving forward, you will be able to manually add transactions on your mobile app.


However, if you already have existing transactions in your account but are unable to add new ones through the app, we have to perform some troubleshooting. Start by resetting the application data.

 

Here's how to Reset App Data in your Android:
1. Go to Menu ☰, then select More Options ⋮.
2. Tap Settings and click Refresh Data.
3. Tap YES to confirm.

 

 

If the issue persists, we can proceed to uninstalling and then reinstalling the app to ensure you get the latest software updates.
