Hello there,
It's great to see you here in the Community. I can guide you on importing a budget plan into QuickBooks.
Here's a guide on how to import a budget plan into QuickBooks.
Step 1: Download a budget template
- Go to Settings ⚙, then select Budgeting.
- Select the Create new ▼ dropdown and select Import budget.
- Select the period you want to download the template for.
- Select if you want to create a consolidated (Company level) or sub-divided budget (by class, customer, location, or other categories).
- Select Next to generate the template.
- Select the P&L budget_template.xlsx link to download the template generated as per your selections.
- Save the file somewhere you can easily find it. For example, the downloads folder on your computer.
Step 2: Create your budget using the template
- Open the budget template in Excel or Google Sheets.
- Enter your budget for each account for all months listed.
- Important: Don't add more columns or rows. If you need more accounts to appear, add them to your chart of accounts before you download the template.
- When you’re done, save the changes.
After this, we can now go ahead and upload your template. To guide you with the step-by-step process, refer to the Upload a budget using Excel template Step 3 portion of this article: Create budgets in QuickBooks Online.
