Hi, I have 2 banking accounts linked to my business. The original is a savings and the new one is a cheque account. The original savings account is linked to the QBO bank feed which i want to phase out and then link the cheque account. Can i link both accounts to the bank feed for a while and slowly phase the savings account out once I'm sure that no more transactions will be taking place in that account? Thanks Carl

Can anyone help. We have added a payment in a prior year. It is incorrect and I want to delete it, but it doesn't appear in the bank account. Payment date 17.4.19, when I look on the QB bank for that date it is not there. Any ideas where could it have gone ? I am baffled     

I currently have the purchase order field selected to show on invoices, but is there a way to require the purchase order be filled in before printing/saving the invoice. I have a few employees who are all invoicing and some of our customers require purchase orders on their invoices or they won't pay.  I want it to alert the sales rep they need to fill in the field before saving or moving on. I use Quickbooks Accountant.

I have recently reconfigured my Laptops’s Data (Stored on separate D: drive) to interface with MS OneDrive (for backup purposes) with the selection “files and folders always available  locally” to cater for offline situations. However, I have noticed (and there is no better way to put it) a total screw-up with data storage. Data files seems to have been willy-nilly moved to the default Quickbooks file location ( seems to be related to whether the laptop was on-or offline at the moment of exiting. This created the impression on lost data when after a while selecting a previous company, accompanied by error messages, requiring running data doctor. This did not solve the problem, necessitating the recapturing of 2 month’s data. Only to subsequently finding the correct file in a folder which have never been specified. Ha anybody experienced the same and/or is there any advice. currently I am running my QB2018 data file from an external drive (which is obviously not ideal) I am running

My email template when i send an invoice previews differently to how it actually sends the email.  It inserts some text after the amount. I don't know where it comes from or how to delete it. It's factually incorrect, so it needs to be removed. In Custom Form Styles/Standard/Email, the email preview looks correct. It's just a simple message followed by the grey box with the amount, followed by name and contact details.  However, when I produce an invoice, it adds some extra information. After the grey box, it adds my bank details for payment. I don't want this to appear on the email. The only place where this information has been added is the Custom Form Styles/Standard/Content/Footer section of the standard invoice.  I tried deleting the bank details from there, but they still appear in the email template.  When i run an invoice, the email preview is the first and only time that the bank details appear. I need them to be removed from the email t
