In my P&L report, wages for payroll is being duplicated.  Once for the Net - That I have matched with bank feed.  Then also is showing a Gross amount that I am guessing Payroll automatically entered.  I can't go in an delete the one that payroll created as does not show anything when I click on it.  Can't delete the one from bank feed as that is matched to my reconciliations.  How do I fix this and advoid for 2024?

Hi there, christy.
 
Let's work together to fix duplicated transactions that show on your Profit and Loss (P&L) report.
 
I appreciate you for sharing a detailed explanation of your concern. However, for me to determine its cause and provide accurate steps to fix this, can you share a screenshot on the report page?
 
The duplicate entries in your P&L report could be caused by how you set up your Accounting settings. The report will depend on how you map your payroll transactions.
 
Here's how to verify and update the settings:
 
  1. Go to the Gear icon.
  2. Click on Payroll Settings.
  3. Navigate to the Accounting tab.
  4. Review the account mapping. For your guidance, please see this article: Change your Accounting Preferences.
  5. Select the Edit (✎) button to update or customize the settings.
  6. Hit Done to save.

 

Once done, pull up the P&L report again.
 
Additionally, there are other various payroll reports that you can run in QuickBooks Online. It will help you view important information about your business and employees.
