Hi there - The direct deposit for independent contractors lets me pay them as a group or batch process.   When I do an entry shows up as a payment for the individual contractor, but also shows up as being deposited under another contractor as Other.  Why the two entries?   My bank does not show it was withdrawn twice?   Please shed some light on this if possible.

Let me help you sort this out, bob8202.

 

As an initial step, you might want to pull up the Audit Log report and see if there are users who have recorded another deposit or open the transaction and check if there no other contractors assigned. Here's how:

 

  1. Click the Gear icon on the upper right corner.
  2. Select Audit Log under Tools
  3. From the Filter drop-down, choose the appropriate Date and select Transactions.
  4. Hit Apply.

 

Since the deposit was not withdrawn twice from your bank, I'd suggest deleting the transaction to avoid duplicates.

 

 

To know more about the Audit Log report, check out this article: Use the audit log in QuickBooks Online. It provides more details on what other information you can find in this log as well as a brief video to serve as your visual reference.

 

Additionally, for more details about the direct deposit process, you can check out this article: Pay a contractor with direct deposit. It contains in-depth information on how to delete and void a transaction in QuickBooks Online.
