The link to the standard bank South Africa is not working. And has not been working for a long time. Why would one continue using this service?

The link to the standard bank South Africa is not working. And has not been working for a long time. Why would one continue using this service?

Thank you for reaching out to the Community about your online banking concern, noblebird-icloud.

 

I understand how important it is to be able to use online banking smoothly. This allows you to obtain the most recent entries and record them in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

 

To ensure that I can provide the best solution, I need to learn more about the problem. May I ask if you encountered any error messages or codes? Did you check with the Financial Institution (FI) to see if they changed the link or the website? Or, they're going through any maintenance updates? 

 

Meanwhile, let us perform a manual update to refresh the online banking connection. I'm here to help you through the procedure.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. In your company, head to Bookkeeping or the Banking menu on the left panel and choose Transactions or Banking.
  2. Tap the Update button in the upper right.
  3. If you see a message about additional authentication, follow the on-screen instructions to continue the update.

 

These actions will update all of your linked bank and credit card accounts. If QuickBooks downloads new transactions, the number of transactions in each account tile will increase.

 

If you continue to get the same result, perform Steps 2 up to 4 in this article: What to do if you get a bank error or can't download transactions.

 

Alternatively, you can upload transactions to a CSV file and import them into QBO. Click here for detailed instructions. 

 

Once completed, make sure to assign them to the appropriate account. You can learn more about how to handle any bank feed issues by visiting this link: Bank connectivity.
