I have been able to send my payroll info (hours) for employees 1 day before direct deposit, but today (Tuesday 

July 5th ) payroll had a overdue notification for next day direct deposit. It was no where near 5pm Pacific time. So I had to change the payroll date to Thursday to not get extra charges..  Why the sudden change, does it have something to do with July 4th?  Memorial day and Juneteenth had to affect on sending payroll Tuesday.

Hello there, @Tharmon321.

 

Let me share the reason why you have a payroll overdue notification for Next-day direct deposit, as well as some insights into the said features timing or funding time for holidays in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) Payroll. This way, you can pay your employees on time and manage your transactions accordingly.

 

Yes, the sudden change has something to do with July 4th, Independence Day. Since you use QBDT Assisted Payroll, you have a Next-day (1-day) funding time. However, if your payday falls on or two days after a holiday, you'll have to submit your payroll info (hours) for employees one business day earlier than you normally would.

 

Based on your description, I can tell that your payday is on July 6 (Wednesday). Since it's two days after Independence Day (July 4, Monday), you should've submitted payroll info (hours) for your employees on July 1st, Friday. The money will be drawn from your account before regular banking hours the next business day. This way, they can receive their pay on time.

After running your payroll, you can check if it was sent successfully and received by Intuit. This is to guarantee that your direct deposits are processed on time. You can learn more about this through this article: Send payroll and direct deposit paychecks in QuickBooks Desktop Payroll.
