We appreciate your time posting here in the Community, Canadian Susan. I'm here to provide the urgent help you need so you'll have access to your historical paychecks again.

 

Last March 2024, QuickBooks Online (QBO) introduced a new and improved platform to replace the existing Standard Payroll offering. All previous data, forms, and reports will be securely transferred and accessible within QuickBooks Online Core Payroll (QBOCP).

 

For more detailed information about this transition, please visit this article: Introducing QuickBooks Core Payroll: upgrading your Standard Payroll experience in 2024.

 

Moreover, I suggest getting in touch with our support team to recover your historical paychecks. They have the right tools and resources to verify your account in a secure environment and further assist you in resolving this matter.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Log in to QBO.
  2. Navigate to the Help (?) menu and select Contact Us.
  3. Type in your concern, then click Let's talk.
  4. Choose a way to connect with us.

the info you provided does not address the problem
Our history is gone.  I cannot run any reports before this current payroll.
You keep referring to QBOCP - like it's an external website, when I click payroll I only see this current payroll. and the payroll module is exactly the same as it was.

I click on archive - again, only current, so where is my history!
I want you to answer the question here so that others in the same position can see the solution if you provide one.

My experience is that the migration from standard to core payroll is a disaster and the company doesn't care about its customers and their issues, just about getting as much money as possible from us. I have been told I have to have advanced payroll as the migration didn't work because one of my employees has changed NI letter. What a joke! Employees change NI letters all the time during a tax year. If your software is so poorly written that it cannot cope with such a minor change why did you insist on making us do the migration half way through a tax year? Why not wait until we are starting a new tax year and then do it? Then only giving us a month notice to make a manual switch to a "better" system by losing all our current data is ridiculous, saying you will not charge for 6 months, but then sending an email saying the charge will be £8 plus £1.30 per employee and asking me to sign up to agree to this and to agree to losing all my data. What choice do I have...... Extremely unhappy customer who has been with this company since the very early days of Quicken, not that they care.

I could not agree more. And, while it is no consolation, it is slightly comforting to know we are not the only ones in this position. Some of our staff turned 21 in the past year, prompting an NI letter change which, like you, precludes us from an "automatic" upgrade to Core. Seems rather a basic oversight on the part of QB.

The guidance on managing our (now inevitable) migration to Advanced Payroll is unspecific and minimal ("just download a csv file"). Extremely unprofessional but QB knows only too well that they have us over a barrel so they don't care at all. Good luck with it all, everyone!
