Hey there, @SmilingInLINY.

I'm happy to assist you with getting your payroll paper check working, but first, I need a bit more information.

For me to better understand your issue, can you provide me the link that QuickBooks is directing you to? Also, can you include a screenshot of the page you're trying to make the switch on? By providing the link and screenshot, I'll be able to help you get your payroll checks working.

I'll keep an eye out for your reply.

As I go through runnung payroll, a day behind schedule, I want to write checks instead of use direct deposit. Last time I did this, I clicked the link (pictured below) and it switched me off of direct deposit and permitted me to use checks. What's the right way to run checks one time?

Hello there, JamesV.

We'll have to select paper check in the Pay Method column to run paychecks. Let me walk you through on how to you can run paycheck inside your book.

Here's how:

Go to Workers on the left panel and select the Employees tab.
Click the Run payroll button at the upper-right corner.
Select a pay schedule for this payroll.
Click Continue.
In the Pay Meth column, select Paper check.
Once ready, you can now submit it.
Select Preview payroll.
Click Submit.

When I entered my employee, I entered their bank information to pay them by direct deposit, but when Ingo in to pay them, it has paper check as the method of payment. I don’t want paper check.

Greetings, @Mdd41.

Thanks for joining in on this thread. I hope your day is going well. Let's work together and get this problem resolved.

Let's ensure that the direct deposit was set up. It may have not saved completely. Don't worry. It's an easy process. Here's how:

Go to the Payroll tab on the left-hand menu bar.
Choose the Employees portion of the page.
Hit Run Payroll.

4. Tap on the name of the employee's hyperlink.

5. Scroll down and find the "How do you want to pay {Employee name}."

6. From the "Paper check" drop-down and select one of the Direct Deposit options.

7. Enter the information needed.

8. When ready, click Done.

It's that easy! In addition, here's a guide that can help you out: Set up an employee for direct deposit.

I hope these details help. I want to make sure all of your concerns are addressed. I'm only a post away if you need me. Take care!

This is ridiculous. I have the EXACT same issue and the link in your system STILL brings us to a stupid forum. Please, for the love of all things mighty, you people are supposed to be the experts in this payroll and financial systems and you can't even sort out how to pay employees by paper instead of by direct deposit on an ad-hoc basis? And I trust you with my taxes?!??! I may need to rethink this. I switched from Gusto because I was expecting a more mature solution and this is pitiful.

We aim to deliver customer satisfaction at all times. Besides, this isn't the kind of impression we want you to experience, jcrump.

Rest assured I'll take note of this so I can pass along your experience here on my end and provide all the feedback you have to the appropriate channels. To switch Direct Deposit to a paper check, just tap the Pay Method column next to the employee's name. Here's how:

Go to Workers on the left panel.
Select the Employees tab.
Click the Run payroll button at the upper-right corner.
Choose a pay schedule for this payroll.
Tap Continue.
In the Pay Meth column, choose Paper check.
Once ready, you can now submit it.
Select Preview payroll.
Press Submit.

I found another way to easily switch to paper checks in the updated quickbooks payroll online system. when you are entering the payroll info for hours, bonus etc.., click the blue text for pay method column which will likely say "direct deposit" then you can simply select paper check and proceed. I don't know if it will default back to direct deposit for next payroll yet so you'll want to verify before running next payroll.
