Hi nwboerkamp,

 

I know how important it is to keep your records accurate. I want to help you get this resolved. I think you're looking to make some changes to the accounting preferences for your payroll. I'll show you how to make those changes.

 

To set your payroll accounting preferences following these simple steps:

  1. Go to the Gear Icon.
  2. Select Payroll Settings.
  3. Under Preferences, click Accounting.
  4. Use the dropdown arrows to find the correct accounts for your payroll mapping. When you've completed your changes, click Ok.

Here's an article that goes through setting up payroll, which explains entering your Accounting preferences: Payroll set up: Payroll preferences. I'm also including an article that goes over making changes to your Chart of Accounts; Add to or edit the Chart of Accounts.

 

In the case that this hasn't answered all your questions, a few more details would be helpful. Then I can make sure you're getting the right support. Take Care.
