Thank you for raising your reconciliation concern here in the Community, hsinihsu.
Maintaining proper tracking of downloaded transactions is vital for a well-organized financial record and efficient reconciliation. Allow me to guide you through the steps of setting up your credit card accounts in QuickBooks Online (QBO) to ensure a smooth reconciliation experience.
In addition to what my colleague suggested, let's add the Chase credit card as the parent account while the master or employee cards are sub-accounts. Here's how:
- Go to the Gear icon ⚙ in the upper right and select Chart of accounts.
- Tap the New button, depending on your account view, you’ll either see a panel labeled New account or New category.
- Choose the option you see in the Add a new account section of this article to complete the procedure: Add an account to your chart of accounts in QuickBooks Online.
Next, let's proceed and add the sub-accounts. Then, connect them to the bank feed. Also, inform the account owner to contact the Financial Institution (FI) to add an authorized user.
Once transactions are downloaded, categorize them into the right account. When reconciling, only reconcile the parent account as all subaccount transactions are rolled up into it.
