Lightning Bolt = this transaction has been Verified by the Electronic connectivity or Banking Feeds download process.

Asterisk = someone Started a reconciliation and checkmarked this transaction in that tool, but then hit Leave and did not Finish the reconciliation.

Checkmark = the transaction has been Entered, Verified, marked as Cleared and the Reconciliation was Completed.

I have discovered several duplicate check entried - do I delete the one with the lightening bolt?

"do I delete the one with the lightening bolt?"

You delete whichever one is the Wrong One. Example:

Example: You had a Bill Payment Check and then you let the banking download Add a "check" which means the expense details are in the file twice. The Bill Payment check is the "right" one and the Added = the duplicate and an error.

"It makes no difference if they are duplicates."

A Lighting bolt = verified from banking download. It can be the Wrong One is "verified" from the perspective of the Accounting, however.

So, it does matter.

The Lighting bolt is a Preliminary status to get you to an easier Reconciliation. It is Not The Important piece of information here. When you reconcile, anything that is not Lightning bolt just means Checkmark It Yourself.

You don't need Lighting Bolts. You need the Right Transactions to exist.

I just updated to from QB desktop 2017 to 2020. I now have an axe emoji next to my credit card accounts in the chart of accounts. The feed is broken and it's asking for the account customer ID in the bank feeds section. It seems when I set it up under 2017 that it autofilled when I set it up but now it doesn't . Does this account number exist somewhere else. I'm fairly sure it's not my QB account number, it's related to the bank. I called them (Capital One) and they have no idea. Now what?

Hello there, @1024098.

You can edit your login credentials or any information in your bank account connected to QuickBooks Desktop if you disable and re-enable Bank Feeds.

To ensure that the most current data will be pulled from the bank server during re-setup. In the meantime, only the admin of the account can make the changes.

Here's how:

I've also included this helpful article in case you need some ideas about how you can categorize your downloaded transactions: Add and match Bank Feed transactions in QuickBooks Desktop.

Reach out to me if you need more help. Take care!

This is what is not working...Possibly because it recognizes me.

Web Connect: If your bank offers Web Connect, follow the onscreen instructions on how to connect your account. When you download transactions from your bank and import them to QB for the first time, then this sets up an account for Bank Feeds. The connection methods available depend on your bank.

I can download the transactions like I was doing before the upgrade. I had already disabled them but I can re-enable without some account number that won't auto fill like it did last time. It seems to be related to the little ax emojis. I tried to transfer the balance to a new credit card and start fresh but it wouldn't work either.
