Welcome to the Community. I can show you how to merge accounts in QuickBooks Online.
You usually perform the process if you have duplicates or if you want to transfer the data into a single account. To start merging, you'll need to visit the chart of accounts section.
Please follow these steps:
- Click the Gear icon in the upper-right corner.
- Select Chart of accounts under Your Company.
- Find the account you want to keep. Then select the dropdown ▼ in the Action column and then Edit.
- Take note the name and detail type of the account.
- Check if the Is sub-account option is marked. If it is, note the parent account it's tied to.
- Go back to the Chart of Accounts.
- Find the duplicate account (the one you won't keep). Then select the dropdown ▼ in the Action column and then Edit.
- Change the Name and Detail Type so the duplicate account's info matches the account you want to keep exactly.
- Select Save, then Yes.
