Hi ! I am new to quick books. I am trying to organize everything In my business and I am seeing duplicate transactions. how can I fix that? My expenses almost doubled

It would be my pleasure to help you handle duplicate transactions in QuickBooks Self-Employed, @Sue90.

When you connect your bank and credit card accounts to online banking, QuickBooks Self-Employed automatically downloads your latest transactions. QuickBooks may occasionally download duplicate transactions. Here's how we can fix this.

To start, let's check your bank statement. Pull up the statement for the period you see the duplicate. Then, you can either exclude or delete the duplicate transactions. 

1. Select the Transactions menu.
2. Find the transaction you want to exclude and select it to expand the view.
3. Choose the Exclude this transaction checkbox.
4. Click Save to complete the process.

On the other hand, you can also delete any duplicate transactions you've added manually. Let me show you how: 

1. Choose the Transactions menu.
2. Find the transaction you want to delete.
3. Click it to expand the view.
4. Choose Delete.

For future reference, you may consider checking out this article: Categorize transactions in QuickBooks Self-Employed.

Thanks for the reply, unfortunately this happen for almost my entire upload of last year. Is there a quicker way then going one by one?

Unfortunately this happen to almost my entire last year upload. Is there an easier way to rectify? Instead of going one by one through each transaction 

I know a way to get this done in QuickBooks, userjustinderavin.

We can exclude duplicate transactions by batch in QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE). I'll show you how.

1. Go to the Transactions menu.
2. Under the Date column, place a checkmark in the box beside the duplicate transactions.
3. Select the Exclude icon.
4. Once done, click on Apply.
