What is a QBO File?

A QBO file (QuickBooks Web Connect) is a financial data file used to import bank transactions into QuickBooks accounting software. Banks provide these files for download so users can automatically sync their transactions. QBO files contain:

  • Transaction Data: Dates, amounts, payees, and descriptions
  • Account Information: Bank ID, account number, and type
  • Balance Data: Current or closing balance as of file date

QBO File Structure and Key Tags

QBO files use OFX (Open Financial Exchange) SGML/XML structure. Key tags include:

  • <STMTTRN>: Statement transaction container
  • <TRNTYPE>: Transaction type (DEBIT, CREDIT, CHECK)
  • <DTPOSTED>: Transaction date in YYYYMMDD format
  • <TRNAMT>: Transaction amount (positive or negative)
  • <FITID>: Unique financial institution transaction ID
  • <NAME>: Payee or merchant name
  • <MEMO>: Additional transaction description
  • <BANKACCTFROM>: Account identification block

QBO vs OFX vs QFX: What's the Difference?

  • QBO (QuickBooks Web Connect): Intuit's format optimized for QuickBooks import. Contains additional headers for QuickBooks compatibility.
  • OFX (Open Financial Exchange): The open industry standard for financial data exchange. Used by banks, brokerages, and financial institutions worldwide.
  • QFX (Quicken Financial Exchange): Intuit's Quicken-specific variant of OFX with proprietary INTU headers.

Our QBO file viewer supports all three formats since they share the same underlying OFX structure.
