Welcome to the Community, @suesurby

 

At this time, there's not a way to change the % to $ on Split Transactions. I'm going to submit feedback to our Product Development Team about bringing in a feature to allow this to happen. 

 

Let me know if you have additional questions or concerns. I'm always here if you need me.

Yes, I would also like to be able to split bank transactions by dollar when setting up rules.

Good morning, @debbiemt

 

Thanks for hopping on this thread. 

 

I can see how this could be beneficial for your business. However, I recommend submitting feedback to our Product Developers so they can consider adding this in the near future. They take the time to review every request and try to add them into the next available update. 

 

Feel free to reach back out if you have any other concerns. Have a great day!

Hello there, @suesurby.


Thanks for adding screenshots about your concern. This gives me a better idea of what’s happening to the transactions.


Let’s configure the Split by settings so you can breakdown the entries by percentage. I can walk you through the process.

 

  1. On the Transactions page, choose the entry you’re working on and then hit the Split menu.
  2. This will open the Split transaction window.
  3. Go to the Split by section and click the drop-down to choose Percentage.
  4. After performing this action, the Percentage column will appear.
  5. From there, input the amount and then hit Save.

These steps will get you back to business. I’m also adding a guide that provides an overview of adding and modifying a transaction rule: Create rules to speed up reviews in QuickBooks Self-Employed.


Let me know in the comment box if you need further assistance while working in QBSE. I’m more than happy to assist further. Enjoy the rest of the day.

I have this same issue. There is no pulldown option to "Split By" in my split menu. I am only able to split by percentage and nothing else. This is very frustrating because I have several transactions that are combined totals where a set amount is always $625 and I want to split the remainder. If I could do fractions of percentages, I could get close, but I can only do whole number percentages so the total is always off by a few dollars. How can I make this work??
