How to get more than 90 days of bank transactions?

You’ll start by signing in to your bank’s website and downloading a valid webconnect file.

Valid webconnect files:

  • .qbo (QuickBooks),
  • .qfx (Quicken) and
  • .ofx (MS Money)

Then SAVE it to your computer in a location that you can find.

Now go to QuickBooks Online:

  1. Go to Transactions>Banking
  2. Once you are on the Downloaded Transaction screen, click on File Upload at the top right.
  3. Next, you’ll start the Web Connect mini-interview.
  4. Click Browse and select your Web Connect file from your computer.
  5. Click Next.
  6. In the drop-down menu, select the account where you’d like to upload the transactions.
  7. Click Save and Finish.

NOTE: If you attempt to upload a file of the wrong format, a message will appear stating: The uploaded file isn’t a valid Web-Connect file.

ALSO REMEMBER: if the transactions precede the opening balance that was entered into QuickBooks Online, the opening balance will change.
