Question

Does anyone know where to find months of missing transactions? I tried using my bank CSV and it said "Looks like this file doesn't contain any valid transaction data..."

I am missing transactions from June 20th until October 6th and can't find them anywhere. I searched all the different tabs just incase I accidentally moved months worth of data, but they aren't anywhere in Quickbooks. I tried uploading my bank CSV file which has many transactions not included in my Quickbooks and it just says "Looks like this file doesn't contain any valid transaction data. Check the file and try again."

Any ideas how to get the missing data added? For obvious reasons I need the data from those 4 months 🙂

Hi there, ajunky1.

 

I appreciate your efforts in navigating your QuickBooks account to locate the missing transactions. Let me provide some details to ensure that these transactions are imported successfully.

 

First, review the mapping of your transactions in the CSV file. This includes formats like Date, Description, and Amount.

 

It's also possible that a disconnection between your bank and QBSE has happened, which is why you're missing transactions from June 20th until October 6th. In this case, select the Include all transactions option to continue the process. It may help you remove the error message you've encountered and retrieve the missing ones.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Profile icon and then select Import transactions.
  2. Locate your bank account and choose Import older transactions under the Action column.
  3. Click Browse and pick the CSV file you want to import.
  4. You'll be routed back to the Import transactions window. From there, tap the Include all transactions.
  5. Follow the onscreen steps to upload the CSV file and click Continue.

 

For more details on manually adding entries, refer to this article: Manually Import Transactions into QuickBooks Self-Employed.
