I can't upload my csv document. I definitely have the 3 required columns and have formatted the file correctly, why?

Hi there, candice.

Can you tell us what happens when you tried to upload the CSV file? Are you getting an error message?  We're asking these questions to make sure that we give you the right steps and information to resolve the issue.

Please reply back to us to share more details. We look forward to it. 

Hi, it literally says: Your file does not contain the three required columns: transaction date, memo and amount. 

I can 100% guarantee that there are 3 columns. I have removed all special characters and ensured that the amounts column is formatted to General and that the date format is correct.

Thanks for the follow-up details you've shared today, candice. I've come to provide insights to help you import CSV files in QuickBooks Online.

If you're using the three (3) column format on your CSV document, you can manually review the payment amounts that are negative and for the deposits without a negative sign. However, if you're using the four (4) columns, place the payment under Credit and deposit under Debit. You'll need to confirm you've entered and modified this information accurately to ensure the credibility of the file to upload in QuickBooks. Thus, you'll need to review its details during the mapping and formatting stage. You can refer to this guide for more detailed insights: Common errors for importing bank transactions using CSV.

I've also added a screenshot for visual reference.
