When quickbooks charges a subscription fee each pay period, why doesn't it automatically appear in ledger?

Hello there, @cuppacheertea. 

Thanks for asking the Community about your subscription charges. All charges and transactions should appear in the bank feed if your bank and credit card account is connected to QuickBooks.  

Hence, ensure that the credit card account you used to pay your QuickBooks subscription is connected so it will appear in the ledger.
