- Upload a bank file as CSV, Excel, PDF, Word, or a photo of a statement. Open any uploaded file again from the Bank files tab.
- Payments are matched by an invoice number or the customer's own purchase order number in the bank text, or by a payer name someone confirmed before.
- Payments that may not be from customers, such as transfers between your own accounts or bank interest, are flagged for a person to set aside.
- In Prepare only, a person approves each match. In Automatic, strong matches under your single-payment and daily limits are recorded on their own.
- Payments are recorded as a Receive Payment in QuickBooks Desktop or a customer payment in Brightpearl, to the bank account, Undeposited Funds, or payment method you pick by name. Anything unclear waits with a plain reason.
- Ask the Assistant on the Accounts Receivable page about payments. Approving, recording, or setting aside a payment happens only after you press Confirm on a card.
- Open a received payment to see its bank line, how the customer was identified, and who approved it.
- A daily note after 5 p.m. says how many payments came in, how many were recorded, and how many are waiting.
