Messed up transaction upload to incorrect date. Can't edit date.

Modifying the date of your bank transactions is an essential part of ensuring accuracy in your records, Vasquez. I'd like to inform you that there's a way to do this in QuickBooks Online (QBO), and I'm here to show you how.

After uploading your bank transactions, it will go under the For Review tab so you can categorize or match it. To edit the date, you'll have to enable the Editable date field option in the bank feeds.

Here's how:

1. Go to Transactions and click Bank Transactions.
2. Select the bank account and navigate to the For Review tab.
3. Click the Gear icon and put a checkmark beside the Editable date field option.
   

    

Moving forward, you'll want to ensure that the date format of your CSV file is accurate. Learn more by reading this article: Format CSV files in Excel to get bank transactions into QuickBooks.

Additionally, I recommend regularly reconciling your QBO accounts with your actual bank statements to ensure they align accurately.

Just leave your questions below if you need clarification about managing your bank transactions. The Community is available anytime to provide additional details. Stay safe.

If you still encountering an issue with a transaction date that cannot be edited directly in QuickBooks Online, you can delete or exclude it. From your CSV file correct the date and upload it again.
