Normally when I pay the company for our 401 contributions both the employer contributions and employee contributions print on the same check. However with our first payroll run in January it is printing a seperate check for each. We have not changed anything but assume there was something in the latest update. Is anyone else having this issue?
We prefer to cut one check for all payments since it goes to the same company. Easier to manage.
thanks
I have the information on why you have a different result from your previous payroll processing in QuickBooks Desktop, wpampell.
If you have two different payroll items and process paychecks in the Pay Taxes and Other Liabilities tab, the system will automatically generate two separate checks. It's a default function of the system. However, you can utilize the Create Custom Payments option if you prefer to combine both payroll types into a single paycheck. This feature allows you to consolidate multiple payroll items into one payment, providing flexibility in managing your payroll processing.
Please refer to the screenshot below:
I've also included a detailed resource about working with liabilities which may come in handy moving forward: Pay your non-tax liabilities
