I always have multiple deposits for the same amount. When they come in to QB from the bank, the Payee name I see in QB does not match the check that was deposited to the bank. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks,

I already have the vendor profiles set up and they are not matching the check from the bank. The bank register in QB is not showing what the check says either. I recently deposited 2 checks from 2 different vendors and in QB they are suggesting the same vendor and there is no way to tell which check is which deposit? When I see the checks to categorize in QB it gives me the option to choose, however if there are multiple checks, it need to know which deposit was for which check to match the correct invoice. Any other ideas? Thanks,
Hi, kjones.
Let me help you match your deposits with the same vendors to the correct invoices in QuickBooks Online (QBO).
Since QuickBooks suggests the same payee on your check deposits, you can consider clicking the Find other matches. After that, a window will pop up showing all the transactions that can be linked to that deposit. Then, review the Date and the Reference number columns of your deposit to determine what deposit you should match with the invoice.

Thanks so much for your help, I am able to find other matches, that's not the issue. They were deposited on the same date, I am not sure where the reference number you are talking about it, that may help. We are all set on reconciling. I just need to know which one is which check and I am not sure how to figure that out? I thought that QB would bring in the Vendor name that is on the check image from my bank? I feel like QB is just guessing...
Hello there, kjones.
I'll add insights to help you match multiple deposits with the same amount in QuickBooks Online.
Since you've mentioned that transactions with the same amount were deposited on the same date, you can enable Copy bank detail to memo and Show bank details to include information that might help you determine which check is which deposit and match it accordingly to your invoice.
Here's how:
In addition, please know that QuickBooks will only depend on the data provided by your bank. You can exclude the bank transaction if you cannot find a match as it already exists within your company file. This way, you can prevent matching the deposit to the wrong entry and avoid duplicates that can mess up your record.
On the other hand, the reference number mentioned by my colleague refers to the check number. Also, QuickBooks will not include the vendor's name from the check image from your bank. It will match transactions based on the date, Description (or Bank detail), and amount spent or received.
