You can manually create by clicking the + New, Sharlene. You can check with the screenshot below.

 

After completing the process, you can also upload data manually via the Bank transactions. It is essential to ensure that the information is in the correct format. This will help avoid import mistakes and guarantee the precise reconciliation of your accounts. Here's how:

 

  1. Navigate to Transactions and choose Bank transactions.
  2. Click on the blue tile corresponding to the account into which you want to upload transactions. From the Link account dropdown, select Upload from file.
  3. If your account is not yet linked to online banking, choose Upload transactions. Opt to either drag and drop or select files, then choose the bank file you downloaded. Click Continue.
  4. In the Select a QuickBooks account for the bank file you want to upload dropdown, choose the desired account for the transactions. Click Continue. If you are new to QuickBooks and do not have an account set up, choose + Add new from the dropdown to create a new bank account.
