Is there a way to set a time period for how the system looks for duplicate items?  I currently have it popping up duplicate sales receipt but the "duplicate" is from 2011.  Same with checks and invoices.

The option to select a time period for how QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) looks for duplicate items is currently unavailable, FishMotors.

 

For that, we understand how such a feature could make your workflow more seamless and efficient, especially when dealing with older transactions. We recommend sending a product feature request to our product engineers so they can consider adding this functionality in future updates. Your input is valuable in helping us improve QuickBooks and create tools tailored to your needs.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Open your QBDT account, navigate to the Help menu.
  2. Select Send Feedback Online and then choose Product Suggestion.
  3. Type in your recommendation in the designated field.
  4. Once done, click Send Feedback to submit your request.

 

You can also refer to this article on how to eliminate duplicate transactions from your bank feed: Remove duplicate transactions in QBDT.
