I closed the bank account I was using to process payroll and tax liabilities through QuickBooks Desktop. I opened up a new bank account for payroll. How do I go about updating the new bank information and updating where the payroll taxes will be withdrawn from? We pay our taxes through QuickBooks desktop. I just want to make sure everything is set up properly so I don’t have any issues and don’t forget to update anything.
