How does it work?

Let's assume that we have a file that contains the following credit card statement 

Date

Note: To import charges (expenses) and refunds from vendors, it is necessary to include them in the credit card statement.

1. Credit Card Account

2. Expense Accounts

3. Customer or Vendor Names

Let's modify the file to add the above details.

Key Points:

  • If a transaction has a positive amount, it will be considered as a credit or a refund.

  • If a transaction has a negative amount, it will be considered an expense or a charge.

  • You need to remove the payments made against the Credit Card company. The payments need to be created as a Transfer from your Bank Account to your Credit Card Account in QuickBooks Manually.
