Hello,

 

Could you please try logging out and then logging back in after clearing cookies? Logging in using an incognito tab is also an option. Please try these and let me know if you're facing the same issue.

 

I'll help you out.

I had the same issue since last few days. Spoke with Quickbooks support and they confirmed that Kotak Bank accounts are not syncing because apparently Kotak bank has blocked Quickbooks from accessing the bank feed. No ETA or any idea when this issue can be resolved. It is a major bummer and I will be canceling my subscription if this issue is not resolved in a few weeks.

Thank you for the update. I will be doing the same. I already have this issue for SBI Card and now Kotak too. This is unacceptable.

yeah same issue at my end too. Both kotak bank services and quickbooks bank integration are such a pain and wasting a lot of time

Hello there, @ashish0072.

 

It's my pleasure to help connect your new bank account to QuickBooks Online (QBO). 

 

As of now, you need to try reconnecting your account using a private browser to help us determine if this is a browser-related issue. To open access QuickBooks using a private browser.

 

Here are the shortcut keys:

  • Chrome: Press Ctrl Shift N
  • Mozilla Firefox: Press Ctrl Shift P
  • Internet Explorer: Press Ctrl Shift P
  • Safari: Press Command Shift 

If you're able to connect your bank account using a private browser, you may need to clear the cache of the regular browser you're using. Clearing it will refresh the system, and you'll be able to work with clean trash. However, if the issue persists, try using other supported browsers.   

 

If you get the same result after the troubleshooting steps above, I'd recommend contacting our Phone Support Team. They have more resources available to investigate this issue further.

 

I've also added these articles for more information when connecting your bank account:

Should you have follow-up questions, don't hesitate to leave a comment below. I'd be glad to help you out.

Please read the posts by multiple users in this thread. This is NOT a browser issue. This is an issue with Quickbooks. I already mentioned speaking with Quickbooks Support on this issue and was told (over 6 weeks ago) that it was an issue and they "did not know" how long it will take to fix the issue! Never expected Quickbooks support to be so unprofessional.

Hello there, pathik.

 

I understand that you need to get rid of this banking issue. Let me share more details on how we can fix this.

 

You'll want to check with Kotak bank first to see if they have any system maintenance. That's one of the reasons why we experience connection issues.

 

Also, we can manually update your banking tab to refresh the connection and help resolve this error.

  1. Go to the Banking tab and select Banking.
  2. Click the Update button.

I know that you already contacted our Support. If you're still experiencing this issue, I suggest reaching out to them again so they can further investigate this with our engineers. They can check also if there's an update since you've already reported this. 

 

As a workaround, you can manually upload transactions into QuickBooks Online. I've added another article for more details on what to do if you see a bank error or bank transactions won’t download.

 

Leave a comment again if you have more questions. Wishing you all the best and stay safe!

Alex,

Look at the attached screenshot. This has been officially confirmed by Quickbooks as an issue that needs to be fixed by Quickbooks. It has been about 5-6 weeks since this issue was encountered/reported and still has not been fixed.

I thank you for the screenshot you've shared, @pathik.

 

I'm here to share additional information to resolve the connectivity error you've received.

 

Error 105 is a common banking problem that's encountered when QuickBooks Online is unable to connect with your bank's website. It's possible the financial institution's online site is currently down for maintenance or experiencing some other type of issue.

  1. Log in to your bank’s website outside QuickBooks.
  2. Review your posted transactions and check for any connectivity error notifications.
  3. Once completed, log in your QuickBooks Online account.
  4. Let’s perform a manual update on your connected bank account.
  5. Go to the Transactions menu.
  6. Choose the Banking tab.
  7. Click the Update button.

 

If the issue persists, you can perform the same troubleshooting steps with at least 2 or 3 hours intervals.

 

If you're still unable to receive updates, you can log in to your bank’s website and download an updated list of your transactions and upload them to QuickBooks Online via the WebConnect feature. You can refer to these articles for more detailed instructions:

Don’t hesitate to leave a comment below if you have other questions about receiving automatic bank updates. I’m always here to help.

This is NOT a problem on the bank side. Please read the entire thread for the context! I have manually confirmed by logging into bank account multiple times since last 2 days. This is an issue on Quickbooks side. This is NOT a user-error or bank-error.

This is insane! I have SBI and Kotak too, not synching, but am shocked that the company has not issued us an advisory and made alternative arrangements; it has been over a month! Tried manual uploading, which led to grave errors... Spent hours on a phone with helpdesk, but the problem only went from bad to worse! unfortunately, had just renewed a month ago so that is two full accounts worth of subscription down the drain!!

I've read and took note of your comments above, @NB67. I also understand the inconvenience this banking issue has caused you and your business. But I'm here to route you to the right direction to help resolve this, so you'll get back on track.  

 

First, I've got the solutions to fix the errors you're getting when uploading the bank transactions. Thus, I'd suggest utilizing this article and click the link specific to your situation: Resolve Bank Upload Errors. You can also reformat the file correctly to avoid getting any of them. 

 

As for the syncing issue for your two banks, I know you've spent hours on the phone with our help desk. But it'd be best to contact our support team again since you've already performed the troubleshooting steps above, and the problem persists. They have the necessary tools to investigate their root cause. I also recommend sharing your existing case numbers with them so they can review your previous conversations. That way, they can further assist you from there. 

 

Once resolved, you can categorise and match your SBI and Kotak transactions to the existing entries in the system. Just go to the For Review tab to complete this task. It helps ensure your financial records are accurate.

 

Additionally, we value transparency in this forum. With this, I'll redirect you to the answer of my peer since you've started a new and related conversation in the Community.

Quickbooks does not want to understand the problem and resolve it....They keep giving workarounds and do not accept the porblem of dowloading transactions from Kotak Bank....I feel this is getting very annoying and would like to discuss with your customer grievance team. Pls connect me to them.

Yes, they are only pasting response templates (copy/paste responses) instead of taking a few minutes to understand the actual issue which so many of us have brought up already.

We too experiencing the same problem with Kotak Bank Account.

Tried all possibilities - logging again, different browser, through desktop app...but the issue persists.

Its been almost 3 months. Now looking at this thread I don't think they are even trying to understand the problem...

I've had two chats with the QB team on this got two reference numbers for the queries. I really wish you guys fix the problem at your end. This is NOT a bank or customer error, it is a product or partnership issue between Kotak and QB. 

 

I wish the problem is taken seriously, given Kotak is a very large bank and it would be a huge loss for QB if all of Kotak's customers dropped out of QB. Me included.

Hi there, @A__J.

 

We currently have an on-going issue where users are experiencing issues with connecting Kotak bank in QuickBooks Online (QBO). Rest assured that our product engineers are diligently working for a fix.

 

As a workaround, you can consider uploading your bank transactions manually in QBO. Here's how: 

 

  1. Go to the Banking menu at the left panel.
  2. Select File upload from the Update drop-down.
  3. Click Browse and choose the file you downloaded from your bank, then Next.
  4. From the QuickBooks Account drop-down list, pick the appropriate bank or credit card account and Next.
  5. Map the statement fields according to your CSV file format and select Next, then select the checkboxes of the transactions to import and Next again.
  6. When prompted whether you want to import now, choose Yes, then Let’s go when the Import Completed.

I'm adding this article for more details: Manually upload transactions into QuickBooks Online.
