I accidently used the wrong bank account while entering 18 months worth of transactions. Is there a "batch" way to change them

all to the correct account?

Transferring the transactions to a different account in batches isn't a feature in QuickBooks, Rachel.

 

You'll want to open each transaction to move them to a different account. To change the bank account of each transaction, follow these steps:

 

  1. Press Ctrl + R, select the account where the transactions are stored and click OK.
  2. Find the transaction you want to change, then open it and update the Deposit To field with the correct bank account.
  3. Once done, click Save & Close.
