I'm here with some instructions that make depositing your checks a breeze, @-wwdot-net.

 

You have to choose the Add funds to this deposit option from the bank deposit window and select checks as the payment method. Follow these easy steps to get this done right away:

 

  1. Navigate to the +New button and choose Bank Deposit. 
  2. Pick the Account where the funds will be deposited.
  3. In the Received From section, choose where the money is coming from.
  4. Select the customer's account.
  5. Hit Check as the Payment Method.
  6. Input the Amount. 
  7. Then, Save and close.  

 

Here's the article that will provide more info about the process: Record and make bank deposits in QuickBooks Online. 

 

Also, to guide you in putting money in and take money out in your QuickBooks Cash account, head to the Use your QuickBooks Cash account at this link for the detailed steps.

 

Then, to review your QuickBooks Cash transfers, refer to the steps below:

 

  1. Go to the Cash Flow menu.
  2. In the Recent activity section, click View all.
  3. Choose All, Money in, or Money out to filter the list. To get more details, select individual transactions.

 

Don't hesitate to get back here if you have other questions or concerns about managing your QuickBooks Cash account in QuickBooks. I'm always here to help. Have a good one.

Thank you for the reply. Indo know how to do all that. It makes sense. However, what I am trying to find out is if I get paid by a check, can I deposit it directly to the QB Cash account or do I need to deposit it to my bank first?

Thanks for getting back to us, -wwdot-net.

 

When receiving checks from your clients, you'll have to deposit it to your bank. Then, you can already transfer it your QuickBooks Cash account.

 

To keep track of the money movement, you can manually record the deposit in QuickBooks Online just like the steps provided by DivinaMercy_N.

 

If these check are invoice payments, make sure you pay the invoices in QuickBooks Online and deposit it to the bank. From there, you can create a Transfer to show that you've moved the money to your QuickBooks Cash account. 

Note that this is for tracking purposes and you still need do it in your actual bank account.

 

We'd also recommend contacting our Payments Support Team. They can review the details provide you more information on how we can get through with the process. You can reach them using this link: Contact Payments or Point of Sale Support.

 

We'l be right here if you have additional queries with the QuickBooks Cash processes.
