I need to make a weekly General Journal Entry.  This has worked perfectly for years.  At the end of December 2020, the General Journal Entries no longer showed up on my bank register?  How do I correct this?

If you're using a recurring template for your journal entries and it stopped creating transactions, there are a few reasons for it. It's possible that the recurrence has been turned of or the template is corrupted.

 

To get this fixed, you can delete and recreate the recurring template to refresh everything. Then you can manually create the JE's that were not created before.

 

To delete an old template, follow the steps below:

  1. Go to the Gear (⚙) icon at the upper right.
  2. Select Recurring Transactions under Lists
  3. Locate the recurring transaction from the list. 
  4. Click on Delete from the Edit drop-down menu. See this screenshot:
  5. Review the transaction details and add more when necessary.
  6. Hit Save and close.
  7. Once done, recreate the template using the New button on the Recurring Transactions page.

Then you can create journal entries manually using the + New icon and selecting Journal Entry.

I am not using  a reoccurring General Journal Entry template.  I make weekly entries however.  Throughtout 2020, I had no problems doing this using Quickbooks Desk Pro 2014.  When I used a 2021 date, the saved transaction would not appear on the bank register.  Thinking it was a problem with an outdate software, I purchased Quickbooks 2021 Desktop Pro.  The problem continues.  I make a General Journal Entry and save it, but it does not appear on the bank register.  Please help.
