Is it possible to import an excel file to write a check payment to various Vendors?

It's possible indirectly, by first converting the Excel file to an IIF file.  Use our BRC IIF Transaction Creator  excel add-in to convert your banking transactions to an IIF file for import directly into your QB bank register (other types of transactions and registers, too!)

Is it possible to import an excel file to write a check payment to various Vendors?

Hello---- WE have around 200 Vendors to pay on a monthly basis and currently doing it as manual input for each of these 200 Vendors.   I would like to know if I can import directly all of it in QB enterprise &  to be printed afterwards as an individual checks.  This will avoid manual process.

As stated in your replay, the Excel file needs to be converted to an IIF file... this is the process I am not sure how to do & need assistance/help. Thanks

Thanks for your prompt response, @Centzun88.

 

You can download and install the .IIF import kit to isolate this when converting Excel files to IIF. For the detailed steps, you can reference this article to learn more in converting it to IIF files: IIF Overview: import kit, sample files, and headers.

 

Tip: Once done converting the file, if you wanted to include check numbers to get automatically detected in QuickBooks, ensure that there's a letter on the "To Print" column before you import them.

 

This way, you'll get the 200 checks imported seamlessly when you include the check numbers to QuickBooks. Also, you can check out our Community Help Articles for some "How do I" steps in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

Feel free to drop a comment below if you need more help with the importing process in QuickBooks. I'd be more than happy to help. Have a great day!

If you are not familiar with IIF feature, utilize a 3rd party importer tool. Once you are familiar with the process, you can automate it by using the Windows Scheduler.
