How People Use QBO Bank Deposit

Our POS system exported deposit dates as YYYY-MM-DD but QuickBooks Online needs MM/DD/YYYY. The validator flagged all 156 rows with the wrong date format. Without checking first, QBO would have rejected the entire file with no explanation of which column was wrong.

One client's bank export had negative amounts mixed into the deposit file from chargeback adjustments. The validator caught 7 rows with negative values that would have created incorrect deposit entries in QBO. Moved those to a separate adjustment import instead.
