QB online IIF file is adding check numbers for direct deposit check

I hear your sentiments, @Christine171.

Dealing with manual adjustments after importing can indeed be quite exasperating, and I understand how much of a setback this situation can be for your workflow.

The allocation of check numbers to direct deposits imported into our system has the potential to cause accounting complications. To steer clear of this situation, I've outlined a workaround that you'll find beneficial.

Here's how:

1. Prior to importing them into QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT), launch the IIF file in Excel.
2. Subsequently, under the DOCNUM column, input "DD" to direct deposit transactions.
3. Navigate to the File menu.
4. Choose Save, then Yes.
5. Exit Excel. You'll get a prompt to save the IIF again. Select Don't Save.

Additionally, feel free to take a look at our guide on exporting, importing, and modifying IIF files to gain insights: Export, import, and edit IIF files.
