Question

Matching multiple transactions to one bank deposit

I have multiple bookkeeping clients and I frequently match single bank transactions to multiple QB entries.  I have a new client and we recently migrated their system from QBDT to QBO.  Within Bank Transactions, the system is only finding exact matches, and not showing smaller amounts for a multiple transaction to single bank transaction match.  The transactions were all recorded after the migration.  I have gone through 4 levels of help through QB help line and no one has been able to figure this out.  Has anyone experienced this and is there a solution?  Thank you!

This happens because QuickBooks Online treats the Find Match screen differently than Desktop did, especially right after a migration.

 

When you click Find Match and it only shows exact amounts, it means the system thinks those smaller transactions are already finalized and sitting inside the bank register.

 

QuickBooks won't show them as options to batch together if it thinks they are already deposited individually.

 

Open one of those smaller transactions and look at where it was sent. It is routed directly to the checking account. Change that destination to Undeposited Funds instead. Once you change them, go back to the bank feed, click Find Match.

 

Another thing is to look at the top right of that matching screen. QuickBooks often turns on a filter called Suggested Matches by default. Toggle that off and clear out the date boxes. That forces the system to stop filtering and show you every single open transaction available.

 

If the matching screen still acts up, the other way is to group them yourself first. Go to the + New button, click Bank Deposit, and check the boxes next to the smaller transactions that make up that deposit. Save it, and the bank feed will instantly find the exact match.

 

Let me know if you have other questions. I'm always here to help.
