Connect to Square can only match exact client names. For example, if you record your Square transaction as FirstName LastName but it is LastName FirstName in QuickBooks, the app will not match the customer. However, once you manually assign an imported transaction to the correct QuickBooks client, QuickBooks will always update to the correct customer. This also works when you match products and services.
When your Square transactions appear in QuickBooks, you’re ready to review and add them to your books. Let me guide you on how:
- Go to Bookkeeping, select Transactions, then select App transactions (Take me there).
- Select For review. Your Square transactions appear in the list, with details like product description, quantity, purchase price, and fee breakdowns.
- For each transaction, select an action, depending on the status.
- Once you’ve added transactions, you can review them by going to the Reviewed tab, then select the sales receipt or deposit under the Added/Matched column.

I understand how important it is for your company to show the customer name and if already in QuickBooks when reviewing transactions. This option, however, is not available in QuickBooks Online (QBO). We see consumer feedback as an opportunity to improve the numerous features of our products. I'd recommend giving our engineers direct feedback. They may look into this suggestion and incorporate it into future updates. Let me demonstrate:
- Go to the Gear icon.
- Hit Feedback.
- Type in your recommendation in the Share your feedback field.
- Click Next.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the process.
