I go to manage my cloud services and click on invite employees. I sign in just fine but it only shows the headers, employee, email, status. It doesn't list the employees underneath. This was just working fine and I used it over the weekend. Today it isn't working in any of my company files. Is there a way for me to fix this or is workforce having an issue? TIA

Hello there, L Dennis.

This isn't the kind of service I want you to experience. However, there is an ongoing investigation about employees name is missing on the Invite Page.
Our product engineers are now working to get this fix.


For now, let's perform these workarounds to resolve this issue. Let me show you how.
 

  1. Check the employee for special characters in their name. Hyphens are the only special character allowed. (Remove any special characters, including spaces entered before their first, middle, or last name.)
  2.  Go back to the invite page and see if the Employees name appears. If not, move to the next step.
  3. In Quickbooks, toggle the status of the missing Employee to Inactive and change it back to active.
  4.  Send zero payrolls.
  5.  Go back to the invite page and check if the Employee name will show in the list.
  6.  Invite Employee.

 

If the issue persists, let's locate the QBWin.log or QuickBooks.log files. This will help you determine the cause of certain errors/issues found in your file.

 

 Here's how:

  1. Find QBWin.log or QuickBooks.log files.
  2. Check the log file.
  3. Scroll all the way to the bottom for the most recent Verify information.

Feel welcome to reach out to me again with any questions about managing your employees. I'll be more than happy to help.

It wasn't just 1 or some employees not showing it was none. I seem to have found the problem and fix so I will explain here what I did in case it can help others.. I got an email from Intuit about an hour ago about direct deposit users having to update company and officer information by 7/31/21. I'm guessing this is what caused the problem in some way. I had to do a payroll update and update the entire company file in order to get the banner to update the required information. Once I updated the company and officer information and Intuit accepted it I went to invite employees the employees were all listed/showing.
