QuickBooks 2009 and Online Banking – Some Fixes

In prior posts about the new Online Banking feature (here and here) I talked about the problems with this feature in the initial 2009 release. I’m posting some information from Intuit about some updates they are making in December, as well as a link to a video they have produced. Note that these releases apply to the Windows versions only, at this time.

QuickBooks 2009 Release 4

This release will be available on December 11th as a manual update (www.quickbooks.com/support), and December 18th as an automatic update. This update will add:

• Quick Fill: You can start typing entry information, such as payee and account names, and QuickBooks will complete the information for you.
• Add New: Quickly add new names, accounts, and classes.
• Manual Match: View and select QuickBooks register entries to manually match the downloaded transaction.

QuickBooks 2009 Release 5

This update adds the ability to review and add multiple bank transactions at once. You can easily review, edit, and save downloaded transactions in a batch.

This release will be available on December 18th both as a manual and automatic update.

To see a preview of these updates you can see a video produced by Intuit.
