PS: This is my first few days trying out Quickbooks, and it really has not made a good first impression, between the bugginess of QBO (there are a couple other bugs I've hit too) and the bugginess of trying to use their help system. So when reviewing/confirming this transaction in QBO, I can select 'Record as transfer', but menu under that reads 'Transferred from' instead of 'Transferred to', so it's really quite messed up! Note the lack of the negative sign before the amount!
But once imported into QBO, the withdrawals are now all shown with positive values! So I cannot categorize them as OUTGOING transfers (to my checking account), which is what I am trying to do.įor example, a transaction in the CSV file that reads like this: The transactions are a mix of sales and withdrawals, with the withdrawals (of course) having negative amounts. I imported older Paypal records into QBO using a CSV file. Why are Paypal records imported into QBO via a CSV file, with a mix of sales & withdrawals (so w/positive & negative amounts) only appearing in QBO with POSITIVE values?Īnd the details (which they have removed all line breaks from) should read: Wow, this is my question, which I just entered in QBO's in-app help, and came here to check on, and their system has completely butchered it!
