After an update my payroll has started posting to a different account.  I have gone to the payroll settings and the account listed is the proper account, but that is not where they are posting.  I have not been able to find any other setting to change.    My accountant has to go in and redo and repost all of the payroll checks after each period.

This is a known issue. If your payroll settings are correct, contact QuickBooks Payroll, they will own the issue and resolve it on the back end.

Hello there, 

 

We can perform basic troubleshooting steps to see if it is a browser issue. Sometimes, your search engine's cache and cookies become corrupted, causing problems when accessing websites or opening files. To begin, open your QBO account in an incognito window. It will prevent the browser history from being saved. Please refer to the following keyboard shortcuts based on your browser type:

 

  • Google Chrome: Ctrl + Shift + N
  • Mozilla Firefox: Ctrl + Shift + P
  • Microsoft Edge: Ctrl + Shift + P
  • Safari: Command + Shift + N

 

If the private browsing session works, clear the browser's cache so the system can restart. This task is also possible in other supported, up-to-date browsers. Clearing the cache will reboot the system, allowing you to work with clearing stocked cache and cookies that is causing the issues.

 

You may also create a test paycheck and confirm to which account it will be posted. If the issue persists, it is best to contact our QuickBooks Online Payroll Support. So they can include you in the list of affected users. They also have additional tools to pull up your account and do a screen share to confirm the issue.
