I just met with my accountant, and he pointed out that it isn't on my list of P & L. Is it lumped in with Expenses?

Thanks for visiting us here in the QuickBooks Community, info. 

 

Yes, payroll costs are under Payroll Expenses in QuickBooks Online's (QBO) Profit and Loss (P&L) report. Let me add information about this and suggest comparable reports in case you want to take a look at the breakdown of the payroll costs. 

 

In the P&L report, wages plus taxes cover the total payroll costs. If it isn't visible on the report, I suggest ensuring that the collapse/expand arrow is expanded. I've attached a screenshot for visual reference. 

 

 

If you want to see the breakdown of the payroll costs, you can consider running the Profit and Loss Detail or Payroll Detail reports. 

 

If you need to save customizations in your reports, let me add this article as a future reference: Customize reports in QuickBooks Online

 

We'll be here in the Community should you need further assistance running financial or payroll reports in QBO. We'll do our best to assist. Have a great day ahead!
