Our company has more than one bank account.  One of our customer paid by echeck thru Quickbook which QB is pending the payment for 3 -5 day. But finally when the check is deposited & post into our bank, it went to our old bank account (Wells Fargo Bank).  How can I change it & make sure in the future that all the echeck will deposit to our new bank account (Chase Bank)?  Thank you!

I use QB Desktop Pro Plus 2019 and my payments are actually deposited into the correct account, but when I download the transaction, it goes into my old checking account.  I can edit it, but it would be nice and a timesaver if I could figure out how to make QB download it into the correct bank account.  Thanks!

Hi ea_logos,

 

Have you not tried connecting the bank to your new account in QuickBooks? If so, let's connect the bank feeds to your new bank account in QuickBooks. Before doing so, you'll have to deactivate the online service of your old checking account. 

 

This way, the transaction will be downloaded into the right account.

 

Here's how to deactivate:

 

  1. Go to the Lists menu.
  2. Select Chart of Accounts.
  3. Right click the old checking account and select Edit Account.
  4. Go to the Banking Settings tab.
  5. Select Deactivate all online services.
  6. Then, click OK to confirm.
  7. Select Save and Close.

 

Once successfully deactivated, you can connect your new bank account in QuickBooks to bank feeds. Check out for the detailed info here.

 

Send me a reply if you need more help with QuickBooks account. Thanks for dropping by.

Thank you

I’d like to share my thoughts about this concern, CE79.


If these transactions should not be recorded in QuickBooks, you can exclude them on the banking page. Here’s how:

 

  1. Go to Banking from the left menu then select the Banking tab. 
  2. Under the For Review page, select the transactions involved by putting a check-mark. 
  3. Click the Batch actions tab and choose Exclude selected.  

Though, if they’re already showing under the Reviewed tab, you’ll need to undo it first. Here’s how:

 

  1. Under the Reviewed tab, locate the transactions. 
  2. Select Undo under the Action column. 
  3. Once done, go back to For Review tab and follow the first set of steps above. 

 

You can check this article for more thing you can do on the banking page: Assign, categorize, edit, and add your downloaded banking transactions.
