Exporting Expenses From Standard Time to QuickBooks

Before importing Standard Time expenses, consider making a backup of your QuickBooks Company file.

1) Choose File, Export

2) Choose "QuickBooks Expenses IIF (*.iif) as the file type.

      


3) All expenses that meet the export criteria will be exported.  The file that is created my be imported into QuickBooks.  You can choose to export expenses to the QuickBooks Check Register or General Journal.  These are almost identical choices but each may have slight differences in QuickBooks.  You can also choose to group expenses into single transactions.  Those transactions would then have splits to include each of the actual expenses.

4) Choose File, Utilities, Import, Import IIF Files from within QuickBooks.  Choose the file you just exported.  The results will be imported into the QuickBooks Check Register or General Journal.

5) Choose Banking, Use Register (Ctrl + R) to view the check register.  There you will see the expenses that you exported from Standard Time.



All expenses that are imported to QuickBooks must use a date, bank, and account.  These fields are available in the Expense dialog in Standard Time.  You can import your Chart of Accounts into Standard Time from within the Accounts dialog.  Choose Tools, Expense Accounts to see this dialog.  You can also set user rights that require the bank and accounts to be required fields when adding new expenses.
