I’ve got you covered, Bryan. I’m here to help so you can link this check to your bill in QuickBooks.

The solutions in the article you’ve attached also work in QuickBooks Online (QBO). Before that, you need to unreconcile the transactions so you can make changes and connect them.

Here’s how:

1. Go to the Accounting menu, then select Chart of Accounts.
2. Locate the account and then click View Register.
3. Find the transaction to change. You can use a filter to only display reconciled transactions in the bank register.
4. Select and hold the box with the R symbol until a blank box appears. You will get a pop-up warning that this might put your account out of balance. Click Yes if you want to proceed. This action will remove the transaction from your reconciliation.
5. Press Save after.

Check out this guide to learn how to unreconcile an individual transaction from a completed reconciliation: Undo or remove transactions from reconciliations in QBO.

Once done, you can proceed to the linking process. I’m glad to show you the steps:

1. Open the check entry in QBO.
2. Change the Expense account to Accounts Payable.
3. From the Customer: Job dropdown, select the vendor name.
4. Press Save & Close.
5. Select the + New button, then choose Pay Bills.
6. Select the bill connected to the check. Make sure the amounts are correct.
7. Save it, then reconcile manually.
