Bank feed FAQ
Why do I have a duplicate transaction?
• Instead of “matching” a downloaded item to an existing transaction, you “added” a new one, and this created
two of the same transactions for the same amount.

Why are my invoices still outstanding?


• Instead of receiving a payment against the appropriate customer's open invoice, you “added” a new deposit
from the bank feed.

Why do I still have transactions in the bank feed that are not matching with my transactions in
QuickBooks Online?
• Most likely, the transaction date is incorrect on the original QuickBooks Online transaction and the
transactions are not getting automatically recognized in the Bank Feed.

Do I need to manually enter prior period expenses and deposits if I have not used QuickBooks Online
before?
• It is time consuming to enter a year’s worth of historical expenses and deposits using transaction forms.
Correctly categorizing income and expense transactions in the bank feed is key to making certain the prior
period data is accurate and ready for the client’s review

and exported.

transactions

LESSON 3:
Introduction to reports customization
Customizing Reports
You can customize most reports in QuickBooks Online, but the options will vary by the type of
report.
It can be as simple as creating the report you want and clicking Save customization.

In QuickBooks Online you will find three types of reports:


• Lists reports, Summary reports and Detail reports
• Each has a different level of customization available.
• Keep in mind, you can customize a detail report in more ways than you can a summary
report.
74 Intuit Confidential and Proprietary
Customizing Reports
• Finally, QuickBooks Online has many different types of the seemingly same report.
• For example, the search field below displays a search for a Profit and Loss report. You can
see that amongst others, there is a Profit and Loss Detail report.
• Because the word detail appears in the report title, you know that this report will provide
much more data AND it can also be customized more thoroughly than a standard Profit and
Loss report.

75 Intuit Confidential and Proprietary


Customizing Reports – Summary report Customize reports

Let’s start though by customizing a summary


report.

The bullets below further explain what you can do


within each group of parameters.

• General lets you change reporting periods and accounting method, and it also lets you change
the number format of the displayed data

• Row/Columns lets you change the displayed options (month, quarter, etc.) and it allows you to
add comparative columns (prior year, etc.)

• Filter gives you the option to refine the report by distribution account, customer, supplier,
employee, and product/service

• Header/Footer lets you change display options, including alignment, for the report title and its
subheadings

LESSON 3:
Recurring transactions
Helping your clients create recurring transactions

Recurring transactions in
QuickBooks Online can be set
up to manage pretty much any
of the first transactions in any
workflow.

This includes sales receipts,


invoices, bills, journals,
cheques, deposits, or expenses

130 Intuit Confidential and Proprietary


Benefits of recurring transactions
• Recurring transactions are especially proficient at automating money-out transactions, like lease or
insurance payments, that are paid at regular intervals and are for a fixed amount.
• On the sales side, when a client is billing a scheduled fixed amount—a subscription, for
example—recurring charges are a great way to save time when invoicing your customers. With
advance customer authorization, you can set up a recurring charge to a customer’s credit card,
using a recurring sales receipt and QuickBooks Payments.
• More advanced recurring transactions can be set up for non-posting transactions, such as purchase
orders, estimates, or delayed charges or credits.
• You can also use recurring transactions to create templates that are not recurring, but rather act as a
guide for transactions that you occasionally must record. For example, if an estimate typically
contains many of the same items sold, but the details vary from customer to customer, you can set
up an unscheduled recurring estimate as a template and use it each time a new one is needed.
