Welcome to the Community, @tom-hinefitness-.

 

There have been no reported issues with connecting the OCBC Business account at this time.

 

On the other hand, are you trying to generate an OTP, or are you having an error while trying to connect your OCBC business account?

 

Nevertheless, here's how we can generate an OTP:

 

  1. Launch the OCBC Business Mobile Banking app on the mobile phone.
  2. Select OneToken from the menu on the right.
  3. Select For account login, then enter your OneToken PIN to generate an OTP.

 

If you're getting an error, you can check this reference for the lists of possible solutions depending on the error: What to do if you get a bank error or can't download transactions in QuickBooks Online?

 

Once connected, you'll want to categorise transactions. I've added this article as your guide: Categorise and match online bank transactions in QuickBooks Online.

 

Let me know if you have other banking connection concerns with your QuickBooks account. Keep safe!

None of this works unfortunately. The connection had been working perfectly well until 3 days ago.

 

When I try to update my bank account transactions, I go through the multiple steps as usual with OTPs etc (this has always worked), but then I get asked to re-enter my login details. I have also done this multiple times, but I just get stuck in a loop of the system asking me to re-enter my login details again and again. 

 

I have double and triple checked that I have entered the correct login details, and also that my online banking is working properly.

 

I had a conversation with the help desk yesterday and they told me that there was maintenance going on at OCBC, but I am not convinced that this is the case as the issue has been persisting for over 3 days now.
