I definitely will make sure that it gets sorted, @cindyl1.
You can use the Journal Entry to enter the details of your two employees for March 2020 payroll. Doing this manually, QuickBooks Online tracks your payment totals.
To enter payroll paychecks into QBO, you’ll want to create manual tracking accounts first to track your payroll liabilities and expenses. Here’s how:
- Go to the Gear icon, then Chart of Accounts.
- Select New to create a new account.
- In the Account Type dropdown menu, you can choose “Expenses.”
- In the Detail Type dropdown, you can select “Payroll Expenses.”
- You can enter/use “Payroll Expenses: Wages.”
- Under Description, you can enter, “This account tracks my payroll wages from.”
- Click Save and Close.
You’ll also want to create liability accounts to cover the most common payroll tax situations. Then, create a journal entry. I recommend reaching to your accountant for further assistance with this matter.
- Click the +New button.
- Select Journal Entry.
- Under the journal date, enter the paycheck date.
