How do you manually enter credit card charges into QBO We CANNOT connect the cr card to download automatically as we have other transactions running thru another program?

Since your card isn't linked for automatic downloads, you can manually record charges to keep your reporting accurate without data conflicts.
 

Here's How:
 

1. Click the + Create button under Suppliers select Expense.
2. Select the Payee (Vendor) and choose your Credit Card as the Payment account.
3. Enter the Payment date and set the Payment method to Credit Card.
4. Under Category, select the expense account, enter the Amount, and select the applicable Sales Tax.
5. Click Save and close.
    

This manual process ensures your expenses are tracked correctly for tax purposes and reconciliations while preventing duplicate entries from your other program.
