In this short tutorial, Linda Artesani of Artesani Bookkeeping demonstrates best practices for reconciling a Citibank credit card in QuickBooks Online (QBO) while maintaining a paperless office. She walks through scanning the credit‑card statement, completing the reconciliation, and setting the payment due date to match the bill’s due date. She then shows how to attach the scanned statement to the transaction by dragging the file into QBO’s attachment folder, saving it, and marking the payment as an electronic funds transfer. The video also references using Hubdoc for scanning and attaching documents, and ends with an invitation for viewers to request future tutorial topics via Facebook.
