How do I stop Quickbooks Online from constantly trying to create rules? Quickbooks always wants to create a rule and then I have to tell it not to do so.

Hi patrickwhalen11,

Let's get rid of that bank rule pop-up suggestion and improve your online banking experience.

Are you referring to the "create bank rules" suggestion that pops up when you're on the Banking page? If so, it's a default setting if you haven't created a bank rule yet. But can stop this from happening by creating dummy bank rule.

Let me show you how:

1. Go to the Banking page.
2. Select Bank Rules.
3. Click New rule.
4. Choose Is exactly as your condition.
5. In the next field, enter a condition that won't match any of your bank transactions. For example, you can enter "Dummy only -- not for use."
6. Click Save.

Below is a screenshot for your reference.

However, if you're referring to something else, we'd truly appreciate it if you can add more details below.

I didn't find a way to stop the suggested rule, but I was able to delete them once QBO creates it.

Go to - Banking - Rules - then Sort 'By Rule Name'.

The suggested rules should group together and delete which ones you don't need.
