First, you’ll get your bank and credit card transactions into QuickBooks Online, either by linking your bank or by uploading a CSV file.
Next, you’ll see how QuickBooks AI suggests a category for each transaction, and how to read its confidence signals so you know which suggestions to trust and which to check.
Then, you’ll handle credit card payments, transfers between your own accounts, and invoice payments, so nothing gets counted twice.
Afterward, you’ll categorize transactions in QuickBooks Online that the AI can’t figure out, split one charge across two categories, and move personal charges out of your business expenses.
After that, you’ll set up bank rules that categorize recurring transactions for you, plus a simple naming system that keeps your rules easy to read later.
You’ll also attach receipts by dragging in a file, forwarding an email, or snapping a photo with the mobile app, so your books hold up if anyone asks.
Finally, you’ll check your work on the Profit and Loss report and spot the mistakes that most often slip through.
By the end, you’ll know how to categorize transactions in QuickBooks Online for a whole month in one sitting, and trust that your numbers are right.
