I want to pay my employees from the quickbooks business checking account. How do I set this up so it does not pull from the checking account I connected it to?

Hi there, info-henforparen.
 

I'll share the steps on how to set up or change the bank account for payroll in QuickBooks Online. Here's how:

1. Go to the Gear or Settings ⚙ icon and select Payroll Settings.
2. Scroll-down and look for Accounting, then click Edit ✎.
3. Click Edit or the Pencil icon in the Bank Account section.
4. Choose the right bank in the drop-down list for Bank account.
5. Select Continue and click Done.

Within 2-3 business days, we'll verify your new account with a test transaction. A few things to know about test transactions before you get started:

• After changing your bank account information, a test transaction should appear in your bank statement in 2-3 business days
• This amount should be a debit and credit of less than $1.00 from Intuit Payroll Service
• You can call your bank or check your bank statement online to verify the amount
• Make sure the test transaction is cleared (not pending) on your bank statement before proceeding, otherwise, the bank verification will fail.

Let me share all these articles with you for additional details about the options I've mentioned above"
