QuickBooks’ bank feeds feature, commonly known as “internet banking,” is one of the most useful features. With this function, you can save yourself a great deal of time. You can easily link all of your financial accounts to your QuickBooks Online account, without having to enter any data. You can increase the functionality of QuickBooks Online and integrate it with your bank account with the help of our outsourced accountants.

Before recently, you could only obtain your bank balance and clear transactions by calling your bank and receiving a statement by mail. Accounting software and websites now make it possible to connect to your financial institutions through the internet and obtain cleared transactions. Upon linking your financial accounts to your QuickBooks Online account, the software will automatically download and categorize all transactions from those accounts. After you have approved the classification of your accounts, you will be able to see your most recent credit or bank card transactions, sales, and costs.

QuickBooks can now be integrated with Bank of America:

The number of personal and corporate accounts you can link is up to you, but you will need to keep track of the differences between them. You can add this account to your bank feeds by going to your dashboard and selecting “Banking” from the left-hand menu. As a result of this action, you will be directed to your banking dashboard. Simply click the Add Account button on the right side of the screen. It’s important to know that adding a bank feed to your chart of accounts doesn’t really do anything.

We have to tell QuickBooks about our bank accounts now that we’ve added an account. After a few seconds, a list of banks to choose from appears. This example will create a credit card for Bank of America, so we’ll choose Bank of America for our bank. We need to grant QuickBooks access to our Bank of America account information once we choose that bank. Just click “Proceed.” in the QuickBooks window. Additionally, permission is necessary to share the data with QuickBooks on an additional screen.
