Question

I created one paycheque but my boss decided to pay employee by etransfer. He split the payment over two days. How do I match these payments to original paycheque?

In QuickBooks, please note that it is not possible to match two downloaded transactions into a single entry. But, you can efficiently exclude these transactions and manually clear the paycheque to reconcile your books without issues.

 

To exclude transactions, kindly follow these steps:

 

  1. Go to the Transactions section, then select Bank transactions.
  2. Click the For Review tab.
  3. Select the checkbox next to each transaction you wish to exclude.
  4. Hit Exclude.

    After which, manually clear the paycheque in the Chart of accounts. Here's how:

    1. Go to Transactions, then select Chart of accounts.
    2. Find the account holding the split payment transactions, then choose Account history.

    3. Select those payment transactions you want to clear.
    4. Under the check column, mark C for these transactions.
    5. Hit Save.
