If you are using QuickBooks for Mac 2014 or later, you can import general journal entries.
This is useful if you work with an accountant who uses a non-Mac version of QuickBooks. Your accountant can
make journal entries while you continue to work in your company file. When your accountant is done, he or she
sends you a QBJ file which you use to import the general journal entries.
To import general journal entries:
1 Choose File > Import > General Journal Entries.
2 Select the .qbj file containing the entries you want to import, and click Open.
3 Select the journal entries you want to import, or click Select All, then click Import.
4 Click OK to back up your company file.
5 Review the entries that were posted, if you'd like, then click OK.
The entries appear in registers, reports, and in the General Journal window, just like they would if you had entered
them manually.
To print a journal entry:
1 Choose the journal entry you want to print from the list on the left side of the window, if you're not
already looking at it.
2 Click .
3 On the print screen, check to make sure everything looks okay and that you've chosen the right
printer.
4 Click Print.
