I have set up American Express to download in QB, but the charges are being applied in the Profit & Loss based on the month the charge was made.  Can this be updated to apply in the month payment was made to the credit card?

Hello there, george.

 

In QuickBooks Online (QBO), it's not possible to change the date in the For review tab. What we can do is exclude the transactions in question to avoid duplicates and then manually import them using CSV file.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to Transactions, then select Bank transactions.
  2. Click the For Review tab.
  3. Tick the checkbox of the transactions you want to exclude.
  4. Select Exclude.

 

Once done, follow these steps to upload your transactions:

 

  1. Go to Transactions, then select Bank transactions.
  2. Select the blue tile for the account you want to upload the transactions into.
  3. Select the Link account dropdown, then select Upload from file.
  4. Select Drag and drop or select files and select the file you downloaded from your bank. Then, select Continue.
  5. In the QuickBooks account dropdown, select the account you want to upload the transactions into. Then, select Continue.
  6. Follow the onscreen steps to match the columns on the file with the correct fields in QuickBooks. Then select Continue.
  7. Select the transactions you like to import. Then select Continue.
  8. Select Yes and hit Done.

 

After that, you can now match and categorize them in the For review tab. Check out these articles below:
