You can convert the file to a type QB will understand.

You can convert it to an OFX/QBO file for import using the bank feeds feature or to an IIF file for import directly into your bank register.

Use the BRC QIF to OFX/QFX/QBO Converter  for bank feeds, to match with existing transactions.

Use the BRC QIF to IIF Converter to import the data into your register directly.

Hi there, gal522.

 

At this time, the option to import Quicken financial data files such as Quicken Interchange Format (QIF) into QuickBooks Desktop is unavailable. You might want to visit our Intuit Marketplace. Then, look for a third-party application that can help you import QIF files into your software.

 

If you have any questions about integration, you can contact their technical support.

 

I found a helpful article for more details about downloading Bank Feed transactions: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/community/Help-Articles/Download-Bank-Feed-transactions/m-p/262061.

 

Please reply to this post if you need anything else. I'm here to help.

It's a simple xml file.   The only difference is the top section of XML.   Grab a sample qbo file and take a look at the top.   You can do a copy and paste, it's the section with the bank name and account numbers that needs replaced.   Everyone wants to charge you a bunch of money to convert your file.   Do it yourself!
