import a batch of transactions

Hello --

Is it possible for a clerical assistant to prepare a "batch" of transaction entries in QB, on another machine, and export it for import into the controller's copy of QB?

It that is not possible, can a batch be created in a text file, Excel, etc, for such import?

Thanks in advance for any guidance on this.

You can produce a spreadsheet for importing transactions. The data in the spreadsheet must be in Intuit Interchange Format (iif). The instructional link I found for creating an iif in 2003 version

With the SDK, it is possible to develop an add-on for your purpose. There may already be an add-on that is acceptable for you. You can research add-on's here
