Hello, 

 

Can I make a journal entry and save it as draft 1st? I checked but could not find any topic nor feature. 

 

Thank you.

You can prepare your JE data in the following template

then use an importer tool to proceed.

Journal Entry

Hi KAdj,

 

Welcome to the Community. I can clarify things about the feature you need when entering a journal in QuickBooks Online.

 

The option to enter a journal entry as a draft to continue entering details later is unavailable. You'll need to save the entry to avoid data loss in the system.

 

At the moment, we don't have a workaround yet to streamline the process. As we assess this, I recommend sending feedback straight to our product engineers.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Click the Gear icon in the upper-right corner.
  2. Select Feedback under Profile.
  3. Share your feedback.
  4. Hit Next to submit.

 

Also, when you reverse a journal entry, QuickBooks creates a new journal entry to balance accounting. It's a record of the change you made. I've attached a link you can use to learn more about the process you can use in the future: Reverse or delete a journal entry in QuickBooks Online.
