Hello there, @usermscutah. I'm here to provide some details on how QuickBooks Online (QBO) processes payroll. 

 

When processing payroll in QBO, the cutoff time is 5 PM PST at least two banking days before the paycheck date. Those paychecks submitted after cutoff will be processed on the next banking day. Also, the lead time for direct deposit depends on the payroll service you use. It's either a 1 day or a 5 day lag time. 

 

You can check the lead time by going to the payroll settings. Here's how:

 

  1. In your QBO account, select the Settings icon.
  2. Next, click Payroll settings.
  3. From there, scroll to the Direct Deposit section. You'll see your funding time above your direct deposit limits.
  4. You can also change the funding time by clicking the Edit option. 

 

For reference, please check this article: Pay your employees on time.

 

Also, running reports to view your employee data, business finances and payroll info is a breeze in QBO. To get started, feel free to visit this link for detailed instructions: Run payroll reports in QuickBooks Online Payroll.

 

If you need anything else, let me know in the comment below. I'm always here ready to lend you a hand to ensure you can process payroll seamlessly. Have a good day and keep safe.
