How to download sales data to Quicken with Managed Payments?

[scottedergallery]

I had been downloading ebay sales info, including fees on each sale, via paypal, not the easiest process but I figured it out. Now with Managed Payments, I don't know how to get the sales info into a QFX or QIF format for download into Quicken. Thanks for any help with this.

Hello @scottedergallery,

Managed payments allows you to access up to seven years of data, and download reports that span up to one year at a time. You can download the data in CSV format and then import into Quicken.

More information on reconciliation can be found in the Help Hub

Except you can't import CSV into Quicken...

I know this isn't the answer you're looking for, but I found a utility a few years ago called CSV2QIF that converts CSV files to Quicken Import Files. It works fine - I made it part of my workflow for getting ebay sales into quicken. I'm also interested in figuring out how to get managed payments transaction detail into my Quicken now, just started working on it and hope its not too painful.

Question for eBay - when are you going to add Quicken support for transferring transaction detail from managed payments?

@schlyguy  - the answer to that appears to be never.  eBay has made it quite clear they are offloading the heavy lifting for importing & integration with popular accounting programs to 3rd party paid apps or sellers directly.  They apparently feel no responsibility to provide any support for this beyond "you can download the reports".

Of course the cost to sellers for these 3rd party apps or programs was not included when eBay claimed that sellers would see savings through Managed Payments.

Agreed.  Ebay has really gone backwards and has added more work/complexity to manage sales using Quicken.  I have started to sell on other sites with lower fees since Ebay has lost the edge in online selling.   With the "NEW" Ebay,  I have to manually add each sale as a line item vs the more seamless way paypal listed each transaction nicely when automatically downloaded into Quicken.
