Trouble importing bills - now not showing on profit and loss

Let me help you with this, @APR2012.

The possible reason why your transactions show in your journal entry instead of Bill pay section is that there is something wrong during the process.

What we can do is to review your downloaded transactions. Then, let's make sure that your Accounts Payable's are the one's affected account.

You can simply open your Journal entry and look for the accounts payable for each transaction that has the same amount. Enter the name and select Save and new. 

You can now go back to the Pay bills section and check transactions the your wanted to pay. Here's how:

1. Click the +New icon and select Pay bills.
2. Put a check in the box beside the vendor's name that you wanted pay.
3. Click Save and close.

Please know that our doors are always open to help you with any QuickBooks-related concern.

Hello @APR2012 ,

Are you trying to import bills or bill payments. Per the Help file

You can import:

• Invoices
• Deposits
• Sales receipts
• Credit memos
• Payments
• Checks
• Bills
• Credit card charges

It appears that the "Payments" referenced are actually customer payments since they reference an accounts receivable account using the process you specify. I tried the same process and was able to import bills that showed "bill" in the Vendor center.
