Hi - new to quickbooks!

Have linked my bank account having already scanned and added receipts from transactions, so i have double entries.  Are receipts not needed to be recorded if the transaction is list in my bank import?

 

Thanks

Thank you for choosing QuickBooks and I'm here to help you with your bank transactions, Hilber.

 

You can manually record transactions. QuickBooks Self-Employed double-checks your downloaded transactions.

 

It tries to match forwarded receipts if the same transaction comes in from your bank. QuickBooks also tries to match them with transactions you've entered manually.

 

If it can't find a match, QuickBooks creates a new transaction from the forwarded receipt. Then, all you need to do is categorize it.

 

Here are the steps you can follow.

 

  1. Go to the Transactions menu.
  2. Look for the receipt you forwarded.
  3. Review the details.
  4. Categorize the transaction.

 

If QuickBooks is unable to record a forwarded receipt, you'll see a "Needs action" message in the Type column.

 

For transactions from accounts connected to online banking, wait until QuickBooks downloads your recent transactions. Then, select the message and add any missing info as needed.
