I appreciate you for detailing your concern, Aaron. I'm here to help.
QuickBooks Online (QBO) automatically downloads new transactions from your Mercury bank account connected to it. If the expense transactions from a month ago are missing, I can recommend a course of action to resolve this.
First, it's possible that there are factors on your bank’s end that prevent QBO from downloading the expense transactions from a month ago. I recommend signing in to your bank’s website to check. You can follow these steps:
Next, if the issue persists, I recommend contacting our Support Team for further assistance. They provide live support in a secure environment and further help you resolve the issue.
For now, you can consider entering the missing expense transactions and marking them as cleared in your Mercury bank account register in your Chart of accounts. If you already have a record of these transactions in QBO, manually mark them as cleared. Here's how:
For future reference, let me add this article about reconciling accounts in QBO: Reconcile an account in QuickBooks Online.

@AlverMarkT - Thank you for your detailed response. I think I figured out the issue and trying to understand the best way forward. Maybe you can help direct me. Basically, I recently opened a credit card through my Mercury bank and those expenses have been paid on the credit card. In reality, every month Mercury takes the money from the Mercury checking account (which is set up in QBO) and I can see those transactions populating on the Bank Transaction screen from the Mercury account link.
Now, after some digging, I found that under Link Account there is an option to Manage Connections. From there I can see the Mercury Checking is enabled but Mercury Credit is toggled off. This is probably why I don't get those transactions. When I try to enable Mercury Credit it shows the current credit bank and - it asks "Which accounts do you want to connect?"
Can you help me understand how QBO works when I add the Creditcard connection?
Do I need to click "Add New"? I don't see an option for my Mercury Checking. So if I click Add New - I choose Account Type 'Credit Card' and make it a Sub Account of Mercury Checking? Or the Credit Card account will be completely separate from the Mercury Checking? Is there an easier way to manage this?
If I have a separate Credit Card now, then I assume that I'll need to pull in the credit card transactions from the date the credit card was opened and start adding those into QBO. And on my Mercury Checking, I'll need to start recording the payments made to the Credit Card?
Good morning, @aaron-bg.
Thanks for coming back and asking additional questions.
I recommend having both accounts set up with online banking and that the accounts need to be completely separate. The reason being is the money from one (checking account) is used to pay off the other (credit card account).
Here's some guides to help you along the way:
