Bank imports

Hi there, @MelonieBP. Welcome to the Community.
 

The problem you're experiencing typically occurs due to an incorrect date format for the transaction dates in your CSV import file. The 01/01/1970 is a default value QuickBooks uses when it is unable to successfully interpret a valid date.
 

You have to make sure that the transaction date in your CSV file matches one of the expected formats in QuickBooks. These are the examples:
 

• MM/dd/yyyy
• MM-dd-yyyy
• MM.dd.yyyy
• dd/MM/yyyy
• dd-MM-yyyy
• dd.MM.yyyy
• yyyy-MM-dd
   

The date will display properly once you use the correct formats.

To correct the transactions that are picking up the 01/01/1970 date, you need to exclude them and then re-import them with the corrected date format. To exclude them, follow the steps below:

1. Navigate to the Pending tab.
2. Select the checkbox next to each transaction you wish to exclude.
3. Click the Exclude button.
