Hi, Kac.

 

To ease the process of handling your bank entries, you may connect your banks for an online banking connection first. We can click on the Set up Direct Connect link from this article as your reference: Set up online banking for QuickBooks Desktop for Mac.

 

Before we can proceed to match the transactions, you'll want to ensure that the check number, amount date, and payee name must be the same as the transaction in QuickBooks. It should be observed to match every transaction.

 

In addition, it will also affect the matching process if the transactions are new or reconciled.

 

Now, here's how to match the transactions:

 

  1. Go to the Banking menu and select Downloaded Transactions.
  2. Select the QuickBooks Account window if you have more than one account.
  3. Click on the unmatched transactions in QuickBooks and register you wish to match. Unmatched transactions don't have an orange circle next to them.
  4. Select Match.

We can also add a new transaction by clicking on Add One or Add Multiple.

 

I've got an article to know more about managing online banking features: Add and match transactions in QBDT for Mac. It also contains future references such as fixing issues and disconnecting with QB Online banking for an account.

 

If we encounter any issues with online banking, we can keep this article for future reference: Fix online banking issues in QuickBooks Desktop for Mac

I apologize, I should have been more detailed.

My old account is no longer setup for auto download as the account has been closed. So I need to manually match so i can reconcile.

 

My bank statement of my old account shows multiple transfers to new account.

I can help match the imported transactions, @Kac5208.

 

When you download transactions through Web Connect, QuickBooks opens them from a .qbo file. If you haven't downloaded the transactions yet, you can follow the steps below:

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Banking menu.
  2. Select Website. It opens a browser window to your bank’s website.
  3. Sign in to your online banking account.
  4. Go to your transactions, then enter the time you wish to display.
  5. In QuickBooks, go to the Banking menu.
  6. Click Downloaded Transactions.
  7. Select Import File, then look for the .qbo file you downloaded.

 

Once done, you can now review and match the downloaded transactions.

 

I've added this link about reconciling transactions in QuickBooks: Reconcile an account.

 

Please keep us posted on how it goes. We're always around to help reconcile your account. Take care and stay safe.
