I'm having issues with the receipts. I've uploaded a dozens of receipts using the QuickBooks mobile app. Now when I click on receipts I see a thumbnail of it but when trying to download it, it's shown as having the size of 100 bytes which indicates that my file is no longer there. That is very frustrating considering it took hours and hours to capture all the receipts to keep it in a centralized location matching to the category. What could be the issue with it? I've also noticed that under expenses I'm not seeing attachment either in the QuickBooks web browser but it's definitely showing in the mobile app. So there's some discrepancy that I am seeing in mobile app and Online.
Thanks for taking the time to post your concerns here, smithbros. I'd love to lend a hand with getting these attachments downloaded.
Normally, the size of the file won't change once you upload them. In addition, you should be able to download it by simply tapping the Save to Camera Roll icon.
The app may have encountered an issue upon processing the images they're not properly displayed attached to the transaction. Mostly, strange behaviors like this are caused by a corrupted or outdated cache file. To rule this out, let's clear the accumulated app data to start over fresh.
Based on your screenshot, it seems that you're using an iOS device. You can follow these steps to be guided in doing the process:
- Head to your phone's settings.
- Choose General, then select iPhone Storage.
- Tap QuickBooks Online from the application list.
- To free up the storage without deleting the documents and data for the app, hit Offload App.
After that, resync your data to see the latest available information.
- Go to Menu.
- Choose Help & Feedback.
- Tap Refresh Data, then hit Refresh to confirm.
However, if the issue persists, you may need to uninstall and then reinstall the application. Finally, I'm including this article to learn how to track your receipts so QuickBooks can extract info from them: Upload your receipts.
Feel welcome to reach out to me again if you have any other concerns or further questions about our mobile app. I'd be delighted to answer them for you. Take care, smithbros.
Thanks for your prompt response and for sharing detailed screenshots, @smithbros.
I was able to replicate this in my test account. After uploading those receipts and matching them to the following expenses, you should be able to see and download the attachments in their respective expense transactions, like bills, expenses, and check expenses. I've added some attachments for visual reference:
