I'll guide you on how you can show the expense information to be the same in your memo or description, Userkil.

 

Descriptions are used to briefly describe the activity (or expense) items and are pulled directly from the Activity Items (or Expense Items) screen. and a generic phrase or explanation of the activity item. Memos allow you to give more details about the tasks or expenses you are entering. 

 

You'll want to edit the Memo field on the Banking page so it will appear similar to your description. I've added a screenshot for visual reference:

 

 

After entering the information, you can click Add to update the transaction. 

 

In addition, QuickBooks downloads the latest transactions automatically once you connect your bank credit card accounts. Learn how it looks for and tries to match with those transactions you've already entered into QuickBooks. I've added this article for more details: Categorise And Match Online Bank Transactions In QuickBooks Online.
