Question

I have direct deposit set up for my employees, but it is not listed as an option when I run payroll. Why not?

I have a seasonal business and laid off my employees over the winter. I have made them active again in QBO and am trying to run their first payroll back. It won't let me choose direct deposit even though it was set up before.
