My bank register and chart of accounts in QBO are linked but they do not match. However, they did match before. I've already tried the update button.

    Welcome to the Community, DStroy. Such discrepancy between your bank register balance in QuickBooks Online (QBO) and your actual bank balance can arise from several factors. Thus, it is crucial to identify and rectify these discrepancies to ensure the accuracy of your financial records.

     

    Below are a few common reasons why these balances might not match, including:

     

    • Outstanding transactions that have not yet cleared
    • Recent transactions in your connected accounts
    • Duplicate transactions that may have been recorded
    • Modifications or deletions of transactions
    • Balances related to credit card or liability accounts
