Consejo de QuickBooks: ahorre tiempo con el ingreso de lotes

Bank Feeds are one of the most common choices for importing data into QuickBooks. This feature automatically imports data from financial institutions, such as bank and credit card companies, into QuickBooks and allows users to approve postings to the general ledger without inputting transactions one by one. But what happens when you encounter problems with bank feeds that cannot be resolved?

Por ejemplo:

Your bank’s servers may be down, the bank may not allow bank feeds, or you may have an inactive bank account that is no longer available for online banking.
Your internet connection is temporarily down or you don’t have internet access where you are.
There are issues with accounts in your company’s files, downloads, or import format.

At times like this, QuickBooks’ “Batch Enter Transactions” feature may be a viable alternative that can save your business valuable time entering and reconciling data.

Cómo funciona

Con la función de transacciones para ingreso de lotes, usted puede incorporar datos de forma más eficiente al ingresar múltiples transacciones de una sola vez. QuickBooks allows you to enter 1,000+ transactions in batches on a screen designed for power data entry by copying and pasting from Excel before saving the information all at once.

The feature can be fast and efficient. You can take 12 months of bank transaction data with hundreds or thousands of transactions, clean them up in Excel, and then copy and paste the data into QuickBooks.

You can use Batch Enter Transactions when adding transactions like checks, deposits, credit card charges or credits, bills and bill credits, and invoices and credit memos to QuickBooks data files.
