Bank Transactions

Confirm is when QBO has identified a category/match
Review is when QBO has not identified a category/match

In either case you should not be excluding any of these transactions.

Let's first look at POS transaction:

If your POS is integrated correctly, you should have two records daily (assuming POS posts daily)

1) Sales Receipt (With daily aggregate sales by category)

2) Payment Journal (Payment you expect to receive in your bank account from POS merchant)

Most/all of the POS transactions should have "Confirm" in front of them. QBO should have already correctly identified those (i.e. match daily payment journal to bank transaction using date/amount). If you feel that they are correctly attached to POS transactions, you can click "Confirm". Since you are doing a payment journal match to transaction, you are not duplicating the income.

** Once in a while due to round issue your payment journal may not match the amount in the bank.

Now for rest of the transactions, you can either "Confirm" if you feel QBO has correctly identified the category OR for "Review" transactions assign category manually and it should automatically change to "Confirm"

As for your sales numbers flowing from your POS system into QuickBooks Online, it's essential to avoid duplicating income when reconciling your bank transactions. Here are some steps you can take to manage this effectively:

1. We can match your sales transactions imported from your POS system with the corresponding bank deposits in QuickBooks Online. By linking your sales data with bank deposits, you can ensure that income is not duplicated.
