Import Settings
A host of powerful customizations for your file data is available with Import Settings. This is available in Step 3: Review & Import screen or directly under the "Edit" Menu in the Menubar. Some of the very useful settings for transactions include:
Find Matching Transactions in QuickBooks by: Identifier to locate existing transactions in your QuickBooks.
Action When a Matched Transaction Found: If an existing transaction is found for the above setting identifier, the corresponding action will be taken. You can Duplicate/ Ignore/ Update/ Append existing transactions in your QuickBooks.
Pre-Import Validation: Validate the complete file before importing it to QuickBooks. By turning this setting ON, file rows will be imported only after cleaning up all the issues in the file. This option, however, will delay the import.
More details about the settings related to the Automatic creation of Items, Assigning reference numbers from the file, etc, are available in this article.
