I found this article by searching the help community. https://quickbooks.intuit.com/learn-support/en-au/help-articles/journal-entry-import-in-quickbooks-online/01/560773#M1224 However, when I go to "Import Data", there is no option to select journal entries to import. Am I missing something? This is a standard feature with any accounting system so I can't imagine it does not exist.

As far as I know, this new feature is only available in certain QBO version (e.g AU, UK)

If you are using QBO Advanced, I am not sure when the feature is available in QBO US version. For the time being, utilize the trial period of TP Importer.

Thank you for sharing the article, @AmyS.

 

Upon checking our test accounts and the test drive, you should be able to import your journal entries directly from the Import Data feature. May I know when did you start your account?

 

Currently, the function to import your journal entries is available to all newly subscribed accounts. With this, I recommend contacting our Customer Care Support so someone can check your account details and be able to import your journal entries.

  1. Go to Help.
  2. Tap Contact Us.
  3. Enter Import Journal Entry in the What can we help you with? field.
  4. Click Let's talk.
  5. Select Get a callbackChat, or Call us.

Lastly, here's a few articles you can read for ideas about how you can manage your account and related transactions: Help Articles for QuickBook Online.

The option to import the Journal Entries differ on what country you're in. That said, I'd recommend reaching out to our Phone Support team. An agent will take a look at your account to verify your subscription and your subscribed country.

Unfortunately this is not available on our version (US version)  though we are paying high fees monthly. Most advanced subscription activated. (Further upgrade is not available) 

 

QBO team must enable this feature immediately for us

Let's ensure this option will be available in your version, SuperStar777.

 

I can see how useful is the journal import process feature when using QuickBooks Online (QBO). This allows you to create journal entries by uploading an Excel file that contains the journal information to the system. Apart from this, this saves data entry time when you need to enter multiple journals, or journals with multiple lines.
