How do I "manually add in the bank feeds" the transactions manually entered for credit card expenses so it will appear in the categorized transactions?

We'll have to utilize the Upload from file feature in the Bank transactions menu to manually add bank feed transactions in QuickBooks Online (QBO), johnkitchens3. We'll guide you through the whole process below.

 

After downloading your credit card expense transactions and making sure it's in the correct file formatmanually upload them to your account by following these steps:

 

  1. Go to Transactions, then select Bank transactions.
  2. Select the blue tile for your credit card account.
  3. Click the Link account dropdown, then select Upload from file. Note: If your account is not connected yet to online banking, select Upload from file.
  4. Select Drag and drop or select files and choose the file you downloaded from your bank. Then, select Continue.
  5. In the QuickBooks account dropdown, select the account you want to upload the transactions into. Then, select Continue. Note: If you're new to QuickBooks, you may not have an account to upload the transactions into. If you don't see one, select Add New from the dropdown to create a new bank account.
  6. Follow the onscreen steps to match the columns on the file with the correct fields in QuickBooks. Then select Continue.
  7. Select the transactions you like to import. Then select Continue.
  8. Click Yes, then Done.

 

Once your expense transactions are downloaded, match and categorize them and then reconcile your account (regularly) so it always matches your monthly statements.

How do I "manually add in the bank feeds" the transactions manually entered for credit card expenses so it will appear in the categorized transactions?

How to enable my manually added bank transaction as "added or matched in the account's bank feed" (with two green square boxes) without uploading or linking bank transactions? Is that possible? Because I don't see my recently encoded expenses in the categorized section in the bank transactions but it's appearing in the bank register.

Thanks for getting back here in the thread, @johnkitchens3. We'll provide more details about handling transactions inside QuickBooks Online (QBO).

 

 

For bank transactions, know that you can only categorize and match downloaded or uploaded bank transactions. For transactions you've manually entered inside the program, there's no need to go to the Banking page to handle them since they already exist in your bank register. We recommend checking this page for more details: Categorize online bank transactions in QuickBooks Online.

 

Moreover, we got these articles to help you reconcile bank accounts, fix reconciliation, and ensure all transactions entered inside the program remains accurate:
