I seem unable to import CSV files containing older transactions from Starling Bank.

 

I have removed extra columns so all I have is Date, Description, Amount

example first two rows of file:

 

Date,Description,Amount
10/2/2022,INVOICE,100.05

 

QuickBooks just says something went wrong - how do I do this?

TIA.

 Hello AndyMitchellCS, thanks for posting on the Community page,  did you save it as a CSV file type? Also it should be three separate columns so one column is date the next column is description and the next column is amount.  Can you also try sign out and back in and try again and see if the same error shows up.

Hi, Yes it's a CSV file, the format of which is included in the original post.

 

Three columns:

 

date,description,amount

 

I have signed out and signed back in, but it still does not work.

Hi,

 

I just tried again with the same file to get you a screenshot and it worked.

 

I have not edited the file but I guess you can close this ticket - did you change something on my account for this to work? I tried to upload this same file over 15 times and this is the first time it worked!

 

Thanks.
