Yes, subject to certain limitations.
You can only import list data into 1 of 4 lists:
- Customers
- Vendors
- Items
- Accounts
You can import either in Microsoft’s supported workbook format (.xls or .xlsx, depending on your version of Excel) or CSV format.
Intuit offers a free Import Excel and CSV Toolkit, which includes a PDF manual, CSV and .XLS example import files, and a reference guide explaining field names. It’s a compressed executable file, which extracts those files when run. Additional information is available in this Intuit knowledgebase article.
You can use another import file type, Intuit Interchange Format (IIF), to import unlinked transactions. See our article on the capabilities of IIF files for more information.

I was having this problem and others trying to get excel into quickbooks. Is this thread still active?
You’re welcome to comment on your experiences, and we do our best to clarify content in the original post, but we’re not able to provide QB support in these comments.
You do have capabilities of importing bills, journal entries, etc. However, header and footer line are required.
Hi dear,
I have time and attendance software for employee attendance. For payroll I want to import attendance file to QuickBooks. I can generate file CVS and Excel format. I don’t know the field structure required by QuickBooks any help appreciated.

QB imposes a lot of limits on payroll data. The links in our article are the best information we have for CSV imports. You can also research using the Intuit SDK, but that will require programming in an advanced language.
